I’m an HR Consultant with over 15 years of experience in HR transformation, talent development, and AI-driven workforce strategies. Throughout my career at global companies like Mitsubishi, Unilever, Savola, and Danone, I’ve worked on reshaping how organizations attract, develop, and retain talent, ensuring that AI and technology enhance, rather than replace, human potential. I’m passionate about the future of work, reskilling, and creating meaningful employee experiences. As a LinkedIn HR Influencer, I love sharing insights on how AI and HR can work together to build more inclusive, people-centric workplaces. Beyond work, I genuinely enjoy connecting with people, exchanging ideas, and learning from different perspectives. I spend my time reading, writing about daily experiences, walking through the city, exploring new places, and even indulging in opera from time to time.

Session Overview

Reskilling & Upskilling for the AI Era: Preparing the Workforce for Digital Transformation
As AI transforms the workplace, L&D professionals play a critical role in equipping employees with the skills needed to thrive. By 2025, nearly 50% of the workforce will require reskilling due to automation and AI-driven changes. The challenge is clear: how can organizations develop “AI fluency” while ensuring learning remains practical, engaging, and aligned with business goals?
Tangible Learnings
  1. Developing AI Fluency: Attendees will learn how to bridge the AI knowledge gap by making AI concepts accessible to all employees.
  2. Human-Centered Learning in an AI-Driven World: AI should enhance(not replace)human learning. This session will present how AI learning tools can personalize training while still fostering critical human skills like creativity, emotional intelligence, and problem-solving.
  3. HR & L&D’s Role in AI Adoption: Attendees will gain insights into how to align AI-driven learning strategies with business goals, overcome resistance to AI, and foster a culture of continuous learning and adaptability.
DEI in the Digital Era
In today’s digital landscape, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) are not just ethical priorities; they are strategic business drivers.
This presentation explores how organisations can leverage inclusive talent acquisition and digital transformation to enhance innovation, performance, and long-term growth. Drawing insights from my research and data from HR professionals and business leaders, I will highlight actionable strategies that foster a more equitable workplace.
Tangible Learnings:
  1. The Power of Inclusive Leadership in a Digital Workplace: How leadership behaviors foster belonging, improve engagement, and drive higher performance in diverse and remote teams.
  2. Cultural Intelligence as a Competitive Advantage : How organizations can harness cultural intelligence to bridge communication gaps, strengthen cross-cultural collaboration, and enhance team performance in global and diverse workplaces.
  3. Embedding DEI in Digital Transformation : How companies can integrate DEI into their digital strategies, ensuring that technology, AI, and automation drive inclusivity rather than reinforce biases.
