Artificial intelligence is changing how organisations operate, but its implications extend well beyond technology and productivity. For HR leaders, the challenge is to ensure that AI transforms work in ways that benefit both businesses and their people.
From establishing clear rules and redesigning roles to protecting employee wellbeing and attracting talent, these issues are explored in The HR Loop, a seven-part webinar series from YuLife, the group insurance and employee benefits provider, featuring People leaders from organisations including Bupa, Skyscanner and Havas.
Beyond technology: the people challenges of AI
Introducing AI is one thing; embedding it successfully across an organisation is another. Employees need clarity about how new tools should be used, the skills and confidence to work with them, and reassurance that their health and development remain priorities.
HR has an important role in shaping this transition, working with business leaders to establish appropriate safeguards, understand the impact on roles and working relationships, and measure whether implementation is delivering the intended benefits.
The HR Loop series explores these challenges through seven practical sessions:
- EP #1: Set The Rules: How to set AI rules your people will actually follow (already aired), with Amanda Arrowsmith and Adam Horne.
- EP #2: Design The Org: How the best-performing companies restructure around AI (already aired), with JooBee Yeow and Michelle Coventry.
- EP #3: Create The Culture: How to protect employee health in the age of AI, with Aditi Mishra and Deirdre O’Neill.
- EP #4: Engage And Retain: How to drive company-wide AI adoption that sticks, with Dan Södergren.
- EP #5: Develop And Build: How to lead from the top with your AI rollout, with Harry van der Zwan and Dan Caines.
- EP #6: Scale From Within: How the smartest companies hack AI adoption, with Thomas Forstner and McKinley Hyden.
- EP #7: Futureproof Your EVP: How ‘AI-ready’ earned its place in the Employee Value Prop, with Ewen MacPherson.
The HR Loop runs every Tuesday at 9.15am until 17 November. Register once for all seven sessions of The HR Loop.
Practical insights and peer learning
Each session lasts 45 minutes and includes live polls, audience discussion and Q&A, giving participants the opportunity to exchange experiences with other People leaders.
Each episode maps to a stage of an AI rollout, so together the series works as a seven-stage playbook, covering everything from implementation and training to monitoring impact and supporting employee health along the way. Recordings are sent automatically to registered participants who can’t attend live.
Research aims to reveal how AI is changing HR
YuLife is also running a survey of HR leaders across the UK right now, to understand how AI is changing their work. It takes 5 minutes to complete, and the results will feed into an AI in HR Report, so People teams can see how they compare with their peers.
The survey is open until 23 October, and everyone who takes part is entered into a prize draw to win a £100 Amazon voucher. Take the survey here.
