Upskilling HR Teams for the AI Era
With layoffs dominating headlines, I've been thinking about how HR can proactively prepare employees for the seismic changes AI may bring. Theconsultnow.com recently highlighted the importance of upskilling HR professionals in data literacy, analytics, and AI ethics so we can better partner with technology rather than fear it. On my team, we're experimenting with online courses in Python for HR analytics and taking part in design-thinking workshops to reimagine our recruitment process. We're also learning to coach managers on how to interpret AI-generated insights without losing sight of individual stories. Have any of you embarked on upskilling initiatives for your HR colleagues? What skills are you prioritizing—data analysis, prompt engineering, ethical considerations? I'd love to compare notes and figure out how we can future-proof our roles.
