Leveraging AI & Automation responsibly for impact and experience
As AI – especially agentic AI systems – becomes embedded in the core of HR (recruiting, performance, learning, workforce planning), the challenge is no longer whether to adopt it, but how to adopt it responsibly. HR leaders are expected to identify productivity levers, ensure fairness, transparency, bias mitigation, explainability and compliance, while also keeping the human experience at the heart of the workplace.
This panel will explore not only the ethical and cultural dimensions but also the operational and organisational implications of deploying AI at scale. From governance frameworks and AI literacy inside HR teams to restructuring workflows around agentic AI capabilities, panellists will examine how companies can both harness automation and preserve trust.
Participants will walk away with strategies for embedding responsible AI into the DNA of their organisations – while at the same time making HR more human.
Key Themes & Talking Points
> Trust & Transparency: How do you maintain employee confidence when AI is making – or influencing – high-stakes decisions on hiring, promotions, or layoffs
> Operational Impact of Agentic AI: How agentic AI will change day-to-day HR workflows, from autonomous sourcing and onboarding assistants to AI-driven policy enforcement.
> Organisational Readiness: What structures, roles, and governance frameworks must evolve to support safe, ethical AI use?
> AI Literacy in HR Teams: How can HR spearhead the change, closing the adoption and fluency gap for the HR team and beyond.
> Human-Centric Experience: How can AI foster empathy and personal connection in onboarding, coaching, performance feedback, and conflict resolution?
> Compliance & Regulation: Anticipating how emerging global laws (EU AI Act, U.S. state-level rules, etc.) will affect HR technology adoption.
