Episode 56: Tactical Applications of AI in HR

November 6, 2025 • 8 mins
There are a lot of "thought leaders" across the HR industry. I've met a lot of these folks over the years and count a good many as friends. Heck, you've probably seen a few dozen featured in hashtag#HRSnacks episodes. It's valuable getting perspectives and guidance from this group, but I think there's a deficit in this industry hearing from HR professionals that are in the trenches working within their organization to advance the f...

If you've seen the job market numbers for July and the dramatic downward revisions made for May and June, then you know the data's finally matching up to what many are sharing and experiencing right now in the job market.

Episode 51: Evolving Payroll with Data, Compliance, Automation, and Insights

August 18, 2025 • 8 mins
I still clearly remember getting my first paycheck as a high schooler working over the summer at the local movie theater. The amount was shockingly low, there was some sort of loop hole where we were getting paid below minimum wage, but getting that handwritten check from the manager was exciting and a milestone moment for me nonetheless. Flash forward 5 years and I'm actually running payroll for the commercial real estate firm I'...

Episode 50: New Tech Investments -vs- Linear ROI Equations

August 18, 2025 • 8 mins
I feel for anyone involved in sourcing and making new tech buying decisions these days. There's a lot to consider and there's much more that needs to be taken into account with bringing in new AI tools that doesn't line up cleanly with how businesses compute ROI. That's why it's great to have smart folks like Kyle Forrest and the team at Deloitte to conduct ongoing research and surface insights on this mismatch happening in the mar...

Episode 49: Is the Future of Work a More Fluid Workforce?

August 18, 2025 • 7 mins
Most prognosticators waxing about the future of work have been humbled since the start of the pandemic in 2020. Remote work environments were going to be the universal norm for office workers. Hiring and retaining talent were the top priorities for the foreseeable future with a historically tight labor market and baby boomers leaving the workforce. Now many are speculating what the role will be for human workers with continued adva...

Episode 47: Fractional HR Work and Frontline Industry Challenges

August 18, 2025 • 8 mins
To say things haven't been easy for HR professionals over the past 5 years is a colossal understatement. The pandemic, the rapid adjustment to WFH, the Great Resignation, all of the "Quiet" iterations (that I'm glad have gone away), RTO pushes, AI-fueled workforce realignments, and a broadening skills gap have led to widespread burnout and many HR pros making the move from full-time roles to fractional and consulting work. While b...

Episode 46: HR Tech Buyer Considerations

August 14, 2025 • 8 mins
The more things change, the more they remain the same. Perhaps not universally true, but this idiom certainly applies to the HR tech industry and the buyers in the market. There are some key principles and considerations that are just as relevant today in the AI era as they were when on-premise HRMS dominated the market. My guest on this episode, Steve Goldberg, has seen it all over the decades and gives a breakdown of some core co...

Episode 45: Addressing Bias in AI

August 14, 2025 • 8 mins
Right now AI tools and agents are being developed that will take a significant amount of work off the plates of HR and TA departments. As more HR-related tasks, analysis, and decisions are parsed to AI, it's critical that examine and question the potential biases that exist in these systems. My guest, Torin Ellis, has been a prominent thought leader, consultant, and practitioner in the HR space since Nirvana was topping the Billboa...

August 14, 2025 • 8 mins
We're in the midst of the AI gold rush. New AI startups are coming to market at a breakneck pace and legacy SaaS platforms are making strategic acquisitions and tasking product teams with embedding AI in their products. But as we're chasing this shiny new object of AI, are companies losing sight of a critical element of product development—creating solutions that solve customers' problems, pain points, and challenges?

Episode 43: Expected Labor Compliance Shifts for 2025

August 14, 2025 • 8 mins
Well, we've experienced week 1 of this new administration and have already seen a flood of executive orders that'll reshape corporate labor laws and regulations. Though it's directionally clear where the Trump administration is focusing reform efforts, the downstream impacts to HR compliance are still TBD. That's why I was excited to have Ryan Parker join me to discuss what shifts employers and HR teams can expect this year and how...

August 13, 2025 • 7 mins
The onboarding experience is a defining moment for new hires. Excitement and enthusiasm to begin a new job can be dampened by tedious and scattered onboarding processes.

Episode 41: EOR is coming in Hot

August 13, 2025 • 7 mins

There's been a mountain of investment $$ poured into the space and a handful of hyper-growth unicorns emerge with massive potential exits on the horizon. So why have EOR providers picked up so much steam lately? Well there's no better person to ask that than Nicole Sahin , the founder of Globalization Partners and the pe...

If you've been to an HR conference this year, there's a good chance you heard speakers and exhibitors talking about agentic AI. It's the next buzzword du jour for an industry that seems to be cycling through these at an increasing rate. But behind the buzz and hype are really practical and exciting applications for AI in the workplace that'll continue to shape the division of labor/tasks between people and AI.

Episode 39: Building Influence and Trust in HR

August 13, 2025 • 7 mins
Early in my career I was required to read Dale Carnegie's "How to Win Friends and Influence People". I didn't discover any shocking revelations—most of the concepts in the book are pretty straightforward, albeit dated. But it did help me realize the importance of building solid relationships in the workplace and how that relational equity can impact my career and accomplishments. The role of HR is heavily weighted towards complex ...

Episode 39: Implementation is the Key to HR Tech Adoption

August 13, 2025 • 8 mins
When looking at the success or failure of product adoption and utilization across the HR tech and Work tech space, it's easy to point to the software and technology as the root cause. Organizations often times purchase expansive HCM systems (sold to them with the promise of all-in-one functionality) and delay the activation of certain modules because it's "too much to take on at once". Narrator: Those modules never did get turned ...
