Traditional workforce planning is too slow, too manual, and too unreliable to guide business decisions. AI changes the equation. By combining predictive modeling and GenAI techniques, organizations are streamlining messy data, shortening planning cycles from months to weeks, and surfacing critical role and skill gaps sooner. This session will show how AI-powered planning delivers credible scenarios that Finance trusts, HR can act on, and leaders use to drive faster, smarter workforce choices—all with less effort and greater ROI.

This session will explore
  • AI-driven acceleration – shorten planning cycles from months to weeks.
  • Finance-ready scenarios – produce forecasts that leaders can trust and use.
  • Risk reduction – identify role and skill gaps before they disrupt.
  • Real-time what-ifs – test multiple workforce options in hours, not months.
Learning objectives
  • Accelerate planning cycles from months to weeks through AI-driven automation.
  • Deliver Finance-ready plans with sharper forecasts leaders can trust.
  • Save millions in labour cost by boosting forecast accuracy.
  • Identify talent and skill gaps earlier to reduce risk and disruption.
  • Enable real-time what-if scenarios that turn planning into decisive action.

Why this is on the agenda

Budget pressure, skills scarcity and uncertainty around AI adoption mean leaders can’t afford slow, unreliable planning cycles. CFOs and boards expect scenarios that are faster, sharper and easier to act on. AI-powered planning is becoming critical to guide hiring, automation and reskilling choices with real financial impact and reduced risk.
