SUMMARY:HR Tech
DESCRIPTION:From Change to Transformation \n\n\nAI is the biggest disruption to hit the workforce in a generation. Finance can automate numbers. Operations can automate processes. HR has to navigate it with people at the center — and that’s a completely different challenge. \nAI isn’t replacing the human side of work. But it’s changing everything around it — faster than strategy\, culture\, and governance can keep up. Organizations that get this right will be the ones where HR and AI work together\, not against each other. \nHR Tech 2026 is where you get the strategy and tools to lead it — and the community to do it with.

SUMMARY:NA Live Webinar: Fixing the Skills Debacle with Mercer
DESCRIPTION:The skills movement promised agility. What most organizations got was a multi-year implementation\, a taxonomy nobody uses\, and a spreadsheet someone is still maintaining in HR. Motion without progress\, while the business keeps asking the question it had at the start: do we have the people we need to execute our strategy?
