The AI Transformation Mandate, Part II

AI Knowhow

As AI continues to revolutionize industries, why are so few organizations prepared with AI policies and procedures? And what role should HR leaders play in this transformation?

In this second part of AI Knowhow from Knownwell, Chief Strategy Officer Pete Buer and CEO David DeWolf pick up their conversation about AI transformation in middle-market professional service companies.

They dive deep into the strategic role HR should play in the next 18-36 months, advising that HR must be involved from the beginning to influence talent management, strategy, and change management. David shares a fascinating story about using ChatGPT to draft Knownwell’s first OKRs in under an hour, showcasing the practical impact of AI in leadership decision-making.

We also hear from Tamarah Usher of Slalom, who explains how they’re enabling enterprise-wide AI transformation and scaling AI-driven innovations across their teams. HR’s readiness, she explains, is pivotal to navigating the fast-moving skills gap and workforce adaptation.
