Show Notes

In this conversation I share insights from my recent trip to Europe, focusing on the Workday Rising event, the current state of talent acquisition, and the evolving role of CHROs in strategic workforce planning.

I discuss the importance of systemic talent acquisition, the emergence of “Precision Talent Acquisition” and the entire redefinition of this function. And I also explain why the term “Hiring Manager” is such a terrible concept.

Finally I share my amazing conversation with one of the most high-powered, inspiring CHROs I’ve ever met.

Takeaways

  • Workday is integrating its products into a cohesive solution.
  • The hiring cycle is slowing down due to economic factors.
  • AI is increasing the value of existing workers, creating ‘super workers’
  • Talent acquisition should be viewed as a growth function.
  • Precision in hiring is essential in a tight labor market.
  • Cultural fit is as important as technical skills in hiring.
  • Strategic workforce planning should align with business goals.
  • The role of CHRO is evolving to include strategic planning, not “workforce planning” alone.
