The AI Playbook for Talent Leaders: A Blueprint for Strategic Impact

REGIONAL WEBINAR EVENT

Hosted by your Northern New Jersey Chapter

Tuesday, September 16th | 6:00 - 7:15 p.m. ET | Zoom


About This Event

In an era of intense technological disruption, Talent Development leaders are under pressure to move beyond the hype and make sound, defensible decisions about AI. The critical challenge is not simply adopting new tools, but integrating them into a coherent strategy that drives measurable business value. Success requires a shift in our role: from program owners to strategic architects of workforce capability.

This evidence-based, vendor-neutral session delivers a practical blueprint for making that shift. Dr. Markus Bernhardt will provide a clear method for analyzing workforce challenges and deploying technology with precision and purpose. Drawing on insights from rigorous, real-world case studies, he will introduce a powerful strategic framework for diagnosing your needs, mapping your implementation path, and articulating the value of your initiatives to the business. You will leave with the clarity and confidence to lead your organization's approach to technology, ensuring your function remains an indispensable driver of success.

Key Takeaways: In this session, you will learn how to:

  • Diagnose Your Needs with Precision: Move beyond buzzwords and learn to analyze any technology through the lens of its core function. Whether it is built to Train skills, Assess capability, or Support in-workflow performance, this analysis will allow you to match the right solution to the right problem.
  • Map Your Strategic Path Forward: Acquire a versatile framework for categorizing any technology initiative, whether you are buying a tool to increase efficiency or building a novel solution to create a new capability. This will enable you to anticipate challenges and align your team on the critical factors for success.
  • Lead the Conversation on Value and Risk: Grasp the most significant risk in working with AI, the "Cognitive Illusion", and learn to champion the essential role of human expertise. You will leave prepared to build a compelling business case that articulates the true value of your work to senior leadership.
