AI in HR---welcome your HR colleague--New set of HR workforce--CHRO's enigma or nightmare?

Must-read article by Muneer M in the Times Ascent today!
Humans have started working alongside AI agents, and so the CHRO has two sets of staff/resources to manage and not one! This is both thrilling and scary! Soon, employee handbooks would have "orientation" and "assimilation" programs for AI agents! Managers would get trained on how to empathetically engage with them. Soon, in mandatory training sessions for staff, L&D coordinators would invite your friendly neighbor, AI agents.
Soon, we will see the conference rooms booked by AI agents, discussing how managers and humans are on vacation and making babies and agents slog for them! Soon, AI agents would be filling reviews on reddit, glassdoor, and fishbowl of the world!
Imagine if these AI agents developed "cognitive dissonance" from getting infected by humans they worked with! Imagine the day they become "sentient"; Jurassic Park would come alive!

2 prime suspects for me in this Gen-AI agent game theory that is being propagated today!

Muneer puts forth 2 valid requests for the HR folks to mull over!

1. CHRO must be fluent in data, code, and culture!
2. HR will have to find why 95% of enterprise Gen-AI projects fail!

While we don't know all progressive companies, they suffered 95% failure in their enterprise-wide Gen AI-Agentic implementations; we have left too much for the CHROs to learn (data, coding, modeling, algorithms, LLMs, and behavioral nudge science).
Agentic AI is certainly the future, but let the tech architects, CTOs, CIOs, and product and AI leaders decide and govern implementations.
We are in very early stages of building GenAI agents... LLMs are still hallucinating.... Most so-called Gen AI models are still "schema" based and not "generative" yet...
Give it some time, and till then, let CHROs and other HR leaders focus on "DEI," "Sareethon," "Sareenama," and "gender-based pay disparity." Sad stats, as per Catalyst Inc., of Women in C-level participations in Fortune 500 firms: CHRO 70%, CTO 2%, CEO 10%, CFO 18%.

What is The Hay Group Total Reward Framework

The Hay Group Total Reward Framework A new way of understanding reward Reward strategies must be anchored in business reality to be effective. Which means linking it to your business strategy – and the needs of your employees as well as your organisation. Our Total Reward Framework helps you optimise reward, no matter how challenging the conditions. The issue Remuneration tends to be one of the worst-managed parts of an organisation’s cost structure. But with 10-70 per cent of total costs wrapped up in it, reward cannot be ignored, particularly in a downturn. To be effective, reward programmes must reflect the needs of the business, now and in the future. Only if they are tied closely to company strategy, business performance and the needs of employees can reward programmes deliver the ROI that is needed in tough times[MK1] . The Hay Group Total Reward Framework takes strategy as a starting point – and it focuses on total reward: every financial measure together with no...

Aon Hewitt Total Rewards Framework

Aon Hewitt Total Rewards Framework The Aon Hewitt model and approach believes in considering Total Rewards as a business tool and very much linked to overall business objectives! Reward as understood is a very complex mechanism and some efforts of correcting the base pay and titling in a hurry by many MNCs in India have done a bigger crime by trying to correct it by market adjustments without looking at the talent map, complexity and expectations out of role and mapping it against the benchmark. Titles in India are a big misnomer and hardly any survey on compensation ever probes and captures and calibrates the tangible outcome based bench marking! If we dive deep, we will find that the key factors of Education, Experience and Quality of Education, Quality and relevance of experience and education are not calculated granular! A diploma holder technical manager gets the salary benchmarked for the top T-school manager with top quality experience in a challenging and break-through...

CORPORATE CULTURE AND FIVE STAGES OF ASSIMILATION

If the study of culture has a predominant guru, it would be Edgar H Schein , Professor Emeritus at MIT. Schein, who has studied the elements of culture for over half a century has a simple there-layer model for understanding corporate culture (Schein, 2009). The three levels are: ü 1. Artifacts. These are made up of visible structures, processes and behavior. Easy to observe, artifacts are the outermost layer. ü 2. Espoused values. These are the strategies and philosophies at play. They include what people focus on and ‘how things get done around here’. ü 3. Underlying assumptions. These are the unconscious beliefs and perceptions rooted in the history of the business. This innermost layer is built through collective experiences including past successes and failures. Corporate culture is as powerful as it is multifaceted. The best way to understand it is to experience it first-hand. Be immersed in both the explicit behavior and implici...
