How do you prepare your workforce for what your customers will need next? For Segula Technologies, an engineering company of around 15,000 people across 30 countries, the answer starts with understanding employees’ capabilities in greater detail than their job titles can provide. In this episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, David Green is joined by Sonia Fosse, Secretary General at Segula. A mechanical engineer by background, Sonia oversees HR and talent alongside communications, corporate social responsibility, quality, legal and real estate. She explains how these responsibilities come together around a shared priority: helping people develop the expertise that creates value for customers. Sonia shares how Segula combines employee input, manager validation and customer conversations to keep its view of workforce skills current and turn that knowledge into decisions about development, recruitment and redeployment.Together, they discuss:Why Segula built its skills architecture from employee input, supported by corporate oversight, rather than imposing a detailed job catalogue How communication, manager involvement and access to development opportunities encouraged employees to participate How skills profiles stay current through project updates, self-assessment and regular conversations with managers How employee insights and customer discussions reveal changing demand, including skills becoming less relevant in particular markets Practical examples of reskilling around 100 people for battery production and anticipating critical aerospace workforce needs Lessons for HR leaders, including the value of strong pilots and the next steps in career development and communities of expertiseThis episode is sponsored by 365Talents, a Docebo company.Every organisation approaches skills in its own way, so 365Talents designs its talent intelligence solutions to adapt to how each business works.

When did the data last change your mind?Organisations have invested heavily in data, dashboards and analytics technology. Yet better information doesn’t automatically lead to better decisions, particularly when it challenges established beliefs or the way things have always been done. In this episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, David Green is joined by Sebastian Wernicke,, author of Data Inspired, to explore how organisations can use data to challenge assumptions, identify new possibilities and turn evidence into action. Sebastian has spent almost 20 years helping organisations use data to grow revenue, reduce costs and understand risk. He is a partner at the economics consultancy Oxera, where he leads the data science and AI team. Drawing on his book and consulting experience, Sebastian explains why improving decision-making requires attention to culture, leadership and human behaviour alongside the quality of the data itself.Join them as they discuss: The difference between being data-driven and data-inspired, and why organisations need both Why more data rarely changes minds on its own, and how psychological safety enables people to challenge assumptions What a consistently green dashboard might conceal, and how targets can distort workforce measures How to start with the business challenge, judge whether evidence is sufficient and use targeted experiments to fill gaps Sebastian’s data triangle, and why reducing engagement or performance to a single score can undermine understanding How better decision-making brings HR and technology teams together, and why relationships and critical thinking matter for future workThis episode is sponsored by 365Talents, a Docebo company.

You’ve mapped your workforce’s skills. What changes in the decisions your organisation makes?In this episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, David Green welcomes back Loïc Michel, co-founder and CEO of 365Talents, a Docebo company, to explore how organisations can connect skills intelligence, learning and workforce strategy. From closing capability gaps to redeploying talent and reducing reliance on external contractors, they discuss what it takes to make skills data useful in everyday business decisions. They also explore how AI agents could change the work of HR, and why human judgement remains essential.Join them as they discuss:Why learning and skills technology grew up separately, what bringing them together enables How to measure whether capability gaps are closing through a cycle of detecting, developing and assessing skills Why skills initiatives stall at the mapping stage, and how a clear business problem and committed leadership keep them moving How SNCF used skills intelligence to identify internal capabilities and reduce reliance on subcontractors Where AI agents can support learning and career development, and how to keep people in the lead on workforce decisions Why understanding skills and tasks is essential to preparing people for changing jobs and work shared with AI agentsThis episode is sponsored by 365Talents, a Docebo company.

As AI makes knowledge more widely available, are organisations paying enough attention to the relationships that help people put it to work?In this episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, David Green is joined by Michael Arena and Greg Pryor, co-founders of the Connected Commons and co-authors of the forthcoming book, The New Social Code: Five Relational Edges That Outperform Algorithms. Drawing on decades of organisational network research and experience leading talent in major organisations, Michael and Greg explore how human connections shape performance, career progression and the ability to turn new ideas into action. Michael is Dean of the Crowell School of Business at Biola University and previously served as Chief Talent Officer at General Motors and VP of Talent at AWS. Greg’s career spans talent leadership and consulting at organisations including Accenture, Workday, Merrill Lynch and Juniper Networks. Together, they make the case for bringing social capital into talent practices alongside skills and experience, helping people build the relationships they need for the work they do today and the responsibilities they may take on tomorrow.Join them as they discuss:Why relationships become more important as AI makes knowledge easier to accessThe five relational edges: opportunity, trust, attention, insight and influenceWhy bigger networks can undermine performance, and how to balance deep trust with broader connectionsHow onboarding can help new joiners build trust and contribute more quicklyHow to recognise collaboration overload and support the people connecting different parts of the organisationWhat networks reveal about future leaders, and practical ways to apply this thinking without sophisticated analyticsThis episode is sponsored by 365Talents, a Docebo company.Every organisation approaches skills in its own way, so 365Talents designs its talent intelligence solutions to adapt to how each business works.

What changes when the people function is designed not as a collection of separate HR processes, but as part of the operating system of the company?In this episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, David Green is joined by Jack Buckley, Chief People and Systems Officer at Roblox, to explore how measurement, people analytics, technology and workforce strategy come together inside one of the world’s best-known technology companies. Jack’s career spans the US Navy, academia, applied statistics, large-scale assessment and game-based hiring before leading people and systems at Roblox. That background has shaped a clear philosophy: before organisations make better people decisions, they need to be confident they are measuring the right things, with data they can trust.Join them, as they discuss:Why data quality and measurement should come before advanced analytics Lessons from building a people science and analytics function during hypergrowth Why People and Finance need a shared view of workforce data and planning How the Roblox operating system brings people processes, technology and internal products together When organisations should buy technology, customise it or build their own How AI is reshaping recruiting, assessment, performance, retraining and workforce planning at Roblox Why skills atrophy could become a significant challenge as employees rely more heavily on AI tools How to balance rapid experimentation with rigorous evaluation and governance Why measuring the work and skills people actually use is essential to redesigning work and creating business valueThis episode is sponsored by 365Talents, a Docebo company.Every organisation approaches skills in its own way, so 365Talents designs its talent intelligence solutions to adapt to how each business works.

Your organisation has committed to an AI strategy. But what does that commitment mean for the people who have to work differently because of it?AI adoption is moving into a more demanding phase. The challenge for HR and learning leaders is translating technology investment into new capabilities, different ways of working and measurable business outcomes.In this special episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, David Green is joined by Mike Wynn, SVP, Academy Executive for AI Capabilities & Enterprise Learning Products at Bank of America, and Himanshu Palsule, CEO of Cornerstone. Together, they explore what it takes to build an AI-ready workforce, combining the practical experience of capability building at scale with a broader perspective on workforce intelligence, skills and work redesign.Join them as they explore:How Bank of America is building AI confidence and capability across every career stage, from self-paced learning to collaborative, experiential workshopsWhy every AI capability the bank teaches is anchored to human skills such as judgement, critical thinking and strategic thinkingWhy organisations need to connect AI strategy with workforce strategy by understanding how work, tasks and skills are changingHow workforce intelligence can help organisations connect signals about people and work with outcomes such as productivity, mobility and workforce transformationWhy learning increasingly needs to happen in the flow of work, as technology makes development more continuous and contextualWhy course completions and attendance are insufficient measures of success, and why leaders should instead look for changes in behaviour, work and business outcomesWhat HR and learning leaders should prioritise when ambitious AI plans have yet to translate into a clear people strategy For CHROs, CLOs and workforce leaders, this conversation offers a practical roadmap for moving beyond AI experimentation and building the workforce capability needed to turn ambition into business value.This episode is sponsored by Cornerstone.Industries, organisations and workforces are all changing at once, and most people leaders are trying to respond with fragmented data and processes that move too slowly to keep up.

What if the thing slowing down AI in HR isn't the technology at all, but the way the function is set up to deliver it?Most HR organisations already have access to AI. The bigger challenge is whether the way HR is structured, governed and measured is ready to turn that technology into sustainable business value. In this episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, David Green is joined by Michael Rochelle, Chief Strategy Officer, principal analyst and co-founder of Brandon Hall Group, to explore new research identifying six structural moves for building an AI-enabled HR operating model.Join them, as they discuss:Why the operating model can become the constraint on AI transformation, even when the technology is ready What changes when HR manages recruiting, learning, employee experience and workforce planning as continuously evolving products rather than finite programmes Why great people and well-designed processes need to come before technology, and the risks of automating processes that already need redesigning How talent pods, workforce product teams and centres of excellence can combine business proximity with scalable solutions and enterprise standards Why HR business partners need deeper business acumen and a stronger performance consulting mindset Why governance works best when it is embedded into design and delivery, helping create the trust required for innovation Why HR needs to strengthen capabilities in judgement, critical thinking, business acumen and data and analytics as work changes How leaders can measure business, workforce, system and future impact rather than simply tracking implementation activityFor CHROs and HR leaders rethinking how their function operates, this conversation provides a practical framework for creating an HR model that can continuously adapt, scale and deliver measurable value.This episode is sponsored by HiBob.

As AI reshapes work, the people function has an opportunity to play a much bigger role in how organisations navigate the transformation. At Snowflake, that starts with trusted data, strong people analytics and a clear view of what technology should automate, where it should augment human capability, and what should remain human. In this episode, David Green is joined by Arnnon Geshuri, Chief People Officer at Snowflake. Drawing on a career that includes senior roles at Google, Tesla and Teladoc Health, Arnnon explains why data has become a common language between HR and the business, and how Snowflake is putting that philosophy into practice. In this conversation, David and Arnnon discuss: Why people analytics gives HR greater credibility and influence with senior business leaders Snowflake’s model for deciding what to automate, what to augment and what should remain human How Snowflake’s talent acquisition team is building its own tools, including an application that reduced hours of work on job descriptions to minutes Why AI is changing jobs, career paths and the skills people will need as work is redesigned Why trusted data is essential to workforce transformation, and how Snowflake puts interactive organisational insights directly into managers’ hands How Snowflake’s talent acquisition team achieved a 20% productivity improvement, and why Arnnon focuses on business outcomes rather than tool usage Why analytics, systems thinking and change management are becoming essential capabilities for current and aspiring Chief People Officers For HR and people analytics leaders, this conversation provides a practical look at how a data-led people function can help shape work, strengthen decision-making and lead organisational transformation.
