The rapid use of AI and other automated technology has created an epidemic of loneliness among employees. How can HR leaders leverage these tools to transform employee engagement and recruit new talent?

HR and talent executive Tim Sackett says rather than using AI solely to automate repetitive tasks, HR leaders can harness it to foster workplace relationships. This may involve having AI compile and summarize employee feedback or gather information about each individual to partner them with mentors or someone who complements their strengths. Tim also advises experimenting with recruitment tools like LinkedIn’s Hiring Assistant to streamline the hiring process and develop a fair, non-biased recruitment system.

In this week’s episode of The People Strategy Podcast, Traci Austin welcomes Tim Sackett, the President of HR Technical Resources, to chat about using technology to enhance team engagement and hiring. Tim shares how workplace relationships can foster personal and professional growth, his innovative solution to the talent crisis, and how AI can align team and organizational values.
