Listen "#4 Why data matters even more in AI transformation (James Morgan)"
Episode Synopsis
HumanAdapt Podcast is about how we need to adapt to accelerate - discussing the rapid evolution for people practitioners to embrace technology, adopt AI and shift skills & mindsets to augment the human experience, ready for tomorrow today.In this episode with guest James Morgan (Founder, OrgSight AI) hosted by global talent expert Jig Ramji, we make the case for problem-first, context-rich HR decision making: marry qualitative with quantitative, speak the language of performance and risk, use AI as a mirror, and move at decision speed.For years, many have argued that evidence-based HR functions would have an even comfier seat at the top table. Being able to test hypotheses or provide a data-led approach to the most pertinent people challenges would allow organisations to have a greater understanding of what mattered most to them and importantly how better to predict the future and mitigate against key risks and challenges. As we embark on a new era of transformation, AI can rapidly speed up so much, but with one variable that matters even more – data sets that are reliable and valid.
