In 2026, TA leaders are operating in a world shaped by AI at scale, constant skills disruption, and candidate expectations that demand both speed and humanity. This session cuts through the hype to focus on what’s actually defining TA success today.
Join us as we unpack the forces reshaping hiring right now, from AI-driven decision-making to the experiences that can’t be automated and explore how workforce planning, DEI, and candidate experience are converging. This is about moving from reaction to leadership, and positioning TA as a true driver of business performance in 2026 and beyond.
What to expect:
- How AI, data, and human judgment coexist in 2026 hiring decisions and where each adds the most value.
- Why candidate experience now drives loyalty, reputation, and long-term hiring success.
- What workforce planning looks like in a world of constant skills change, not static roles.
- How to build inclusive, future-ready talent pipelines that scale with business growth.
- Why TA leaders must operate as strategic business partners, not just delivery functions.
