🌍 Brandon Hall Group took the stage at UNLEASH World 2026 in Paris! 🇫🇷 AI is moving faster than ever, but are organizations truly keeping up? Earlier today, our CEO, Mike Cooke, and Chief Strategy Officer and Principal Analyst, Michael Rochelle, took the stage at UNLEASH World to challenge how organizations approach AI transformation and the future of HR. The discussion went beyond technology adoption, exploring the tough questions leaders need to be asking: 💡 Are we truly transforming the way we work or simply automating outdated processes? 💡 Is HR evolving fast enough to keep pace with AI? 💡 Are organizations measuring real business impact or just celebrating successful implementations? 💡 Are leaders ready to make the hard choices that meaningful transformation requires? We're proud to have been part of these important conversations and to continue challenging organizations to rethink what's possible for the future of work! #UNLEASHWorld #BrandonHallGroup #AITransformation #FutureOfHR #Leadership #FutureOfWork

🚀 AI is changing the way we work. But are we thinking big enough about what it can actually do for our businesses? For many organizations, the conversation around AI still centers on job displacement, automation and uncertainty. But Alex Campos, CEO of @VensureHR Employer Solutions, sees things differently. In a recent episode of Brandon Hall Group's Excellence at Work podcast, Alex joined our CEO, @MikeCCooke , to share why he views AI as one of the biggest opportunities for business growth and innovation. And his own experience speaks volumes. 📈 2 to 3 times more productive. Same number of working hours. That's the impact Alex says AI has had on his work. Instead of using that extra productivity to do less, he's using it to accomplish more. More creativity. More initiatives. More opportunities to move the business forward. It's a perspective that challenges how organizations should be thinking about AI adoption, particularly small and midsize businesses. Because the real opportunity isn't necessarily about reducing the workforce. It's about empowering people to contribute in ways they couldn't before. AI can give us greater capacity. What we choose to do with it is what will define our success. 🎥 Hear Alex's perspective in this clip from Excellence at Work, and listen to the full conversation with Mike here: hubs.la/Q04B1kC20 💬 How is your organization approaching AI? As a tool for efficiency, a driver of innovation or both? #BrandonHallGroup #ExcellenceAtWork #VensureEmployerSolutions #ArtificialIntelligence #FutureOfWork #BusinessGrowth #AIinHR

Earlier this year, Michael wrote about @UKGInc's evolution toward becoming a Workforce Operating Platform and why he believed it was an important advancement for the HCM technology market. What stood out to him was the company’s recognition that workforce technology needed to do more than manage transactions, maintain records and support administrative processes. It needed to help organizations make better decisions and improve how work is accomplished. Michael explored that direction in his earlier article, UKG Analyst Day 2026: Why the Future of Workforce Technology Is Becoming an Operating Platform (hubs.la/Q04zTRvH0). UKG’s announcement today takes that strategy in an exciting and important direction. UKG, a Brandon Hall Group™ Smartchoice® Preferred Provider, has announced a headless AI vision that will enable employees, managers and leaders to initiate workforce activities through AI experiences, including Anthropic, Google Gemini, OpenAI and consumer voice assistants. UKG’s Workforce Operating Platform provides the intelligence, business rules and operational controls that govern execution. This is one of the more significant strategic developments in workforce technology because it addresses a fundamental challenge organizations face as they scale their AI investments: integrating intelligent technology with the operational realities of managing people and work. 🔗 hubs.la/Q04zTRn80 #brandonhallgroup #newblog
