How to Transform Recognition into Real-Time Workforce Intelligence

About the Panel Discussion

Organizations are facing an engagement and execution crisis at the exact moment business complexity is accelerating. Economic pressure, AI adoption, skills disruption, and constant change are colliding,  yet HR leaders are still being asked to drive results using lagging indicators, static surveys, and self-reported data. The result is a widening gap between what CEOs expect and what HR can confidently prove. Strategy exists, but execution falters,  not because of ideas or investment, but because leaders lack real-time visibility into how work is actually getting done.

If this gap isn’t closed, HR risks remaining trapped in a cycle of activity over outcomes, alignment over accountability, and initiatives over impact. But when HR gets this right, the payoff is transformational. By unlocking authentic, real-time human data already being created inside the organization, HR can move from reacting to disruption to deliberately shaping workforce strategy. This shift enables leaders to identify skills as they show up in real work, spot emerging talent early, course-correct strategy faster, and clearly connect people decisions to business performance,  earning HR a true seat at the enterprise strategy table.

Join us for a LIVE and interactive panel discussion where senior HR, rewards, and compensation leaders will explore how to reposition workforce planning for today’s reality. You’ll hear how leading organizations are using authentic human data to move faster, plan smarter, and prove impact with confidence, equipping HR teams to lead execution, not just support it, regardless of where they are on their transformation journey.
