In this week’s episode, co-hosts Mark Edgar and Naomi Titleman have a discussion focused on the changing role of CHROs and HR in organizations. Key topics discussed include statistics showing CHRO influence declining since pandemic (42% of C-suite executives don't view HR as equal partners, down from 57% in 2021), the importance of redefining HR's purpose as "supercharging human performance" and how AI is transforming HR functions.

We believe that while AI can handle many traditional HR tasks, human HR professionals remain essential for connection, facilitation, and critical thinking.
