David Dart, Chief People Officer at Caliber Collision, raises a critical point about hybrid work environments: "One of the watch-outs I'd have for HR leaders across the board is, don't think we've yet mastered hybrid." While many companies are calling employees back to the office, the real challenge lies in building the capabilities and solutions needed to make hybrid work sustainable: ✅ Developing robust training for managing dispersed teams ✅ Equipping leaders to lead (not just manage) in remote settings ✅ Maintaining and evolving company culture in hybrid environments This isn’t just about policies; it’s about truly enabling employees and leaders to thrive in the hybrid world. What do you think? Have we really mastered hybrid work, or is there still more to learn?

A recent Gartner survey found that 38% of HR leaders have tested AI, but most are still in pilot mode. So if you haven’t fully explored AI yet, you’re not behind—this is the moment to figure out how it can benefit your team. So, where’s the biggest opportunity? Automation. Here are the key areas to focus on: -> HR Service Delivery: AI chatbots can handle routine employee questions, improving response times and freeing HR from repetitive tasks. -> HR Operations: Automating admin tasks like ticketing and reports can save time. In one example, a chat bot that can cut response times by 30%, improving both efficiency and employee experience. AI and automation aren’t just tools—they’re a way to redefine how HR operates. The real question is: How will your team leverage AI to work smarter and drive real impact?

Nobody wants to get fired by a robot. When considering AI in HR, one of the most common concerns I hear from HR pros is the fear that AI will eliminate the human touch—the very thing HR was built on. In a world where interactions can feel increasingly impersonal, this is a valid concern. But here’s the distinction… If you use AI correctly, it should actually ENHANCE the human touch. Think about the core needs in HR: timely responses, accuracy, competence, and personalization. Historically, we've associated all of this with direct human interaction. But if we break it down, we realize most of these needs can be addressed by technology before reaching that crucial “last mile” of human engagement. Take employee dismissal or recognition—two areas people assume should never be handled by AI. We’d never want a bot firing someone or giving out recognition inauthentically. But think about everything leading up to those moments: - performance tracking - compliance checks - nudging managers to recognize great work These are all areas where AI can support back-office tasks, while still leaving the final, human touch intact. The goal isn't to automate empathy—it’s to free up time and energy so HR professionals can focus on what truly matters: delivering meaningful, personalized experiences when they’re needed most. — I’m Thomas Kunjappu follow me for all things AI in HR Operations!
