Sweta Regmi - Bias in AI - How Does AI Impact Job Seekers?

Sponsored by Nola Simon Advisory: Learn More From This Bonus Podcast Episode

This is an experiment - a repurposed LinkedIn audio room I recroded this morning. I stopped the recording before I invited anyone up on stage.

Here's the newsletter I wrote about the offer:

The thing about corporate budgets is that you have to use them, or you lose them.

A current state audit of your hybrid/remote strategy is an ideal way to resolve this issue and set your company up well for 2024.

What’s your vision for distributed work? I don’t mean right now but 5 or 10 years from now.

Do you want to be an employer of choice with a wildly successful company and people who are happy, healthy, and fully engaged in their work?

The decisions we make now about when, where, and how we work will inform the future of work.

It’s worth investing in.

Maybe you are confused by the constant headlines about huge employers implementing harsh return to office mandates. Is that the future? What data do you trust? Maybe you’ve implemented a strategy but it’s not working. Are people refusing to go to the office? Is there turnover? Are your people disengaged? Has trust in your leadership eroded?

Disengagement is an $8.8 trillion workplace problem according to Gallup. You aren’t alone.

What if I told you that it’s less about data and more about imagination?

What if I told you that you can set a course for the future of work you want to see and use the data along the way to adjust and adapt the strategy? Trends, scenario planning, strategic foresight all inform future-focused strategy.

You need to know where you are to see where you need to go.

That’s where the current state audit can help. Book your spot now.

FAQs

Why Nola Simon Advisory instead of a big-name consulting firm?

I’ve been involved in strategically influencing hybrid/remote for 10 years. It’s the rare big firm consultant who ever worked outside of an office pre-pandemic. When you hire me, you get me and my experience. Big firms often have senior staff handle the sales presentations, but the junior staff do the work.

What do you know that we don’t?

I designed hybrid/remote strategy from the inside as an operations subject matter expert, an individual contributor. This means that my expertise is unconventional and very different from most consultants who either worked as traditional leaders or have an HR background. I’ve been called the voice of the employee, but I combine this with deep research into futurism, leadership, organizational design, and HR. My podcast is in the top 25 leadership podcasts all time. A short-term engagement is a great way for us to get to know one another - behaviour change takes 12-18 months.

Why an external consultant at all?

It’s hard to change a system when you work within it. Your employees work within a hierarchy and it’s sometime...
