🎧 Tune in as Himanshu Palsule joins Meg Bear and Amy Wilson on The The Meg & Amy Show to unpack how AI is redefining the currency of work, from the evolving role of experience to the rising importance of human attributes, and what it will take to build stronger talent pipelines, close the skills gap, and lead with context, inference, and trust in the age of AI ⤵️
For most of my career, experience was the ‘currency,’ how much you'd done, how long you'd done it, how deep your technical expertise ran. AI is changing that equation. As it takes away tasks and reshapes how we tackle work, who you are and how you show up is becoming just as important as how much experience you have. I had a chance to dig into this and a lot more with Meg Bear and Amy Wilson on The Meg & Amy Show. A few things we got into: The entry-level problem. Routine tasks are being absorbed faster than new talent pathways are being created. That's not just a workforce issue; it's a leadership pipeline issue. The people we'd normally grow into future leaders aren't getting the foundational experience they need. The skills gap is closing, but not in the way you'd expect. Cornerstone's own research shows the balance between technical expertise and human attributes like curiosity, courage, and resilience is nearly 50-50. As AI takes away baseline tasks, that changes what every role requires. Personalized learning upside: our education systems were built around a lowest common denominator model that labels people early and rarely adapts. AI-powered hyper-personalization could finally change that. Learning differently doesn't mean you're behind. It means your strengths are different. And the three things Cornerstone OnDemand prioritizes, and what I believe will separate organizations that thrive from those that don't: context, inference, and trust. The more context you bring to a problem, the better the answer. Inference determines how you act on what you're seeing. Trust with customers, with employees, is the foundation everything else is built on. Grateful to Meg and Amy for the conversation. https://lnkd.in/giNdfcy8 #FutureOfWork #AI #Leadership #WorkforceDevelopment
