In today’s data-driven world, technological advancement often outpaces a thorough understanding of how that technology impacts people.

The next Today at Work report, coming September 6 on ADPRI.org, reveals the business impact of promotions and presents a new way of measuring the motivation and commitment of the workforce.

The Business Impact of Promotion: It's Not Always What You Think

Many organizations are starting to use artificial intelligence (AI) for strategic insights to help increase efficiencies and drive growth. Automation fueled by traditional AI and generative AI is helping transform organizations by reimagining the way we work and even the nature of the work itself. These rapidly evolving technologies reduce the time required for process-driven work in recruiting, customer service, and reporting and provide opportunities to perform tasks more effectively, quicker, and at a scale that exceeds human capacity. If designed and used properly, AI tools can even reduce bias in standard HR practices.

While powering positive advancements, AI applications can potentially have negative implications, such as arriving at incorrect recommendations or amplifying factors of bias. In addition, in using these technologies, it is essential to adopt good privacy practices. Keeping critical principles in mind to counter such effects can help organizations navigate these challenges, especially as regulators in the U.S. and elsewhere consider new rules to address the societal impact of AI.
Join us and receive critical insights and best practices on what organizations need to consider, including:

 • How does AI  benefit and help employers and workers?
 • What are the rules of the road for companies considering an AI-powered solution?
 • What do we see on the horizon regarding legislation and regulation?
 • How should companies think about issues like transparency and bias?
 • How should employers think about privacy and protecting employees’ data in their use of AI?
 • What are some best practices to remain compliant and get the most out of this technology?

How AI is Reshaping the World of Work: Insights and Strategies to Consider

The evolution of today's global workforce, coupled with ongoing legislation tied to discrimination in the workplace, has introduced a host of new challenges for employees and business leaders alike. People — inside and outside your organization — are likely looking for signs of a genuine commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion (DE&I).

Most leaders acknowledge HR's critical role in ensuring the right policies are in place to prevent discrimination against employees based on sexual orientation, gender identity or other types of discrimination. Given the significant financial implications of failing to protect or directly violating workers' rights, it's also something finance leaders are prioritizing.

Join us to get critical insights and potential strategies you can use to reach your DE&I goals, including:

- Transgender and LGBTQ+ anti-discrimination policies, such as self-ID policies and the use of preferred or chosen names
- CROWN acts that prohibit discrimination based on hair texture and protective hairstyles
- Pay equity
- Legislation updates and EEOC guidance on the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning to assess job applicants and employees

How Organizations Can Demonstrate Dedication to DE&I Year-Round

Employer benefits plans are strongly linked to employee satisfaction and retention. Without an effective strategy to market and communicate those benefits to your diverse, multi-generational workforce, employees may not understand, value, or take advantage of what’s available to them.

Understanding a diverse, multi-generational workforce – what do they need, care about, respond to?
Leading practices for communicating benefits offerings
