The HR function is under considerable pressure:

 

• Burnout and cognitive overload are destroying productivity – “Our employees are exhausted from constant change and decision fatigue.”

• Leadership development isn’t working – “We invest in leadership training, but the problem isn’t the people—it’s the system.”

• Talent is leaving or checked out – “Retention is a nightmare. Employees feel disengaged and uncertain about the future.”

• AI and automation are creating anxiety – “Employees are worried about being replaced, and we don’t have a clear workforce strategy.”

• Skills gaps and adaptiveness issues – “We need employees who can think critically and adapt, but we don’t know how to cultivate that.”

• HR is trapped in compliance mode – “We should be shaping the future of work, but instead we’re focused on policies and firefighting.”

 

With increasing disruption, the issues are only going to increase.

 

At the AEI, we are developing an implementable framework to address this. We believe that organisations need to harness the full cognitive potential of their people, and this involves getting the best from them, rather than the most. 

 

Please reach out. We host exclusive, no vendors, invitation-only executive gatherings to explore these challenges. We regularly produce relevant content that reflects how the world is changing and thus how our framework is evolving.
