How HR Can Protect Expertise in the Age of AI

In this UC Today interview, host Kristian McCann sits down with Laura Fink to unpack how HR should protect expertise in the age of AI.

With a wave of retirements about to hit workforces, companies have to be prepared to keep avenues open for experienced workers who want to adapt to AI, and to teach junior workers so they can still learn the core skills that AI now performs.

Key takeaways include:

  • The day-to-day challenges this shift will bring
  • What kinds of responses can HR leaders experiment with to protect and grow expertise amid rising retirements and AI reshaping on-the-job learning?
  • What expertise will look like in an AI-enabled workplace
  • How to frame the skills and expertise issue so people in the boardroom take action.
