  • When the world changes, we must change too. From HR-GPT and Return on Intelligence (ROI) to Augmented Talent and Workforce Ecosystems, HR and Business leaders must shift from a 'wait and see' approach to a 'explore and disrupt' one. Of course, this is exhilarating and unnerving. But it's also a call to reflection, action, and mobilisation.


    Here, Dave Ulrich the world’s #1 HR Thinker, joins Terence Mauri, the world’s leading disruption thinker to unpack what’s new and what’s next in the future of work, talent and AI. Dave draws on a lifetime’s research, consultancy and writing to ask â€œWhat’s eroding, what’s enduring and what’s emerging in a world of extreme disruption and distributed everything," and tackles the question “Is AI the future of work and HR?” He sees a future built around four emerging assumptions: connect the inside and outside; harness uncertainty with certainty; navigate paradox; and personalise work. And he shares vivid stories and wisdom-packed insights to help you sharpen the talent and value agenda. He concludes: â€œI aim to guide you in envisioning a fresh direction for HR and the future of work, culture and talent.”

  • Innovation needs failure, yet according to Hack Future Lab only 28% of leaders say they work in cultures where it’s ’safe to fail’. Without learning to fail well, there’s no growth and worse we choose silence (play to lose) over speak up (play to win). The Museum of Failure founded by Dr. Samuel West is a collection of over 160 failed products and services from around the world. Every failure provides a unique lesson into the risky business of innovation and its close cousin failure. The museum aims to stimulate productive discussion about failure and inspire us to take meaningful risks. The #1 takeaway: If you’re not prepared to fail, you’re not prepared to learn.

  • We used to think of failure as a problem, to be avoided at all costs. Now, we're often told that failure is desirable - that we must 'fail fast, fail often'. The trouble is, neither approach distinguishes the good failures from the bad. As a result, we miss the opportunity to fail well.


    Here, Professor Amy C. Edmondson the world's most influential organisational psychologist - reveals how we get failure wrong, and how to get it right. She draws on a lifetime's research into the science of 'psychological safety' to show that the most successful cultures are those in which you can fail openly, without your mistakes being held against you. She introduces the three archetypes of failure - simple, complex and intelligent - and explains how to harness the revolutionary potential of the good ones (and eliminate the bad). And she tells vivid stories ranging from the history of open heart surgery to the Columbia Space Shuttle disaster, all to ask a simple, provocative question: What if it is only by learning to fail that we can hope to truly succeed?

  • How do you learn to see around corners faster than change itself? And will Generative AI such as ChatGPT or Bard AI be able to do strategy for us? Rita McGrath is a best-selling author, CEO and founder of innovation platform Valize and a professor of management at Columbia Business School. Thinkers50 has described McGrath as 'one of the world’s top-ranked thinkers on strategy, innovation and growth during times of uncertainty.’ Her global bestsellers include Seeing Around Corners (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2019); The End of Competitive Advantage (HBR Press 2013); Discovery-Driven Growth (with Ian C. MacMillan Harvard Business Press, 2009). When today’s fringe is tomorrow’s mainstream knowing how to spot inflection points before they happen is key to building a resilient and sustainable future.

  • Most of us believe inclusion is both the right thing to do and good for business. Then why are we so lousy at it? What steps will you take as a new year unfold to scale inclusion on purpose? Ruchika Tulshyan is the best-selling author of Inclusion on Purpose: An Intersectional Approach to Creating a Culture of Belonging at Work which has been described as â€™transformative’ by Dr BrenĂ© Brown. I met with Ruchika for a research-backed conversation at Hack Future Lab to learn more about her must-read new book. She explains why “leaning in” doesn't work—and dismantling structural bias does; warns against hiring for “culture fit,” arguing for “culture add” instead; and emphasizes the power of reading fiction books to build empathy. She says: â€œWe’ll see more leaders being held accountable to diversity, equity and inclusion outcomes, with progress affecting bonuses and advancement opportunities for leaders. And new hires will evaluate work opportunities based on whether a company culture is inclusive or not.” Without inclusion, great ideas are lost, cultures decay and talent is wasted. My #1 takeaway is that leadership is inclusion. With this actionable book, Ruchika shows us how we can make progress toward inclusion and diversity - and why we must start now.

And if you don’t get it right today, simply reset. And go again tomorrow.
