Artificial Intelligence has moved rapidly from experimentation to implementation, but for many small and medium-sized HR teams the questions remain the same:
- What are organisations actually doing with AI in HR?
- Where is it delivering measurable value?
- What is the return on investment?
- How is AI influencing workforce planning, talent strategies and future organisational structures?
- Where should HR focus next?
Join fellow HR leaders from City HR’s Small & Medium Banks Network for a confidential, Chatham House Rule roundtable discussion exploring how AI is being used in practice across HR teams today.
Drawing on insights from City HR’s latest paper, AI in HR: Strategy, Governance and Human Judgement (link or attached) we will move beyond the hype to discuss the real opportunities, challenges and lessons emerging from implementation. The paper highlights how organisations are using AI to support productivity, workforce planning, learning, recruitment and employee services, while grappling with important questions around governance, accountability and human judgement.
Discussion topics may include:
- AI use cases that are delivering value for smaller HR teams
- Measuring ROI: efficiency, productivity, quality and employee experience
- Using AI to support workforce planning and skills-based talent strategies
- How AI may reshape organisational structures and operating models
- Building confidence and capability across HR teams
- Practical governance considerations and lessons learned
This roundtable is intended to be highly interactive, allowing participants to share experiences, challenges and ideas with peers facing similar opportunities and constraints.
As always, City HR roundtables operate under Chatham House Rule, creating a trusted environment for open and candid discussion on a topic that is increasingly front of mind for HR leaders across the sector.
