About our HR Circle

The HR Circle offers members an exclusive opportunity to discuss the latest industry challenges and developments, and to share their expertise and experience. Human resources is no longer just a necessary task or something that can be treated as an afterthought. In recent years, the battle for talent, both onshore and offshore, and staff retention have been discussed more than ever. On average, people change careers three to seven times over their lifetime, which places additional pressure on HR professionals to keep staff engaged and motivated and to provide room for growth and development. We also deal with changes to laws, such as employment and data privacy legislation, and, of course, the implementation of artificial intelligence in the profession. As many companies do not have large, diverse HR teams, we offer our member organisations and their HR professionals the opportunity to meet and openly share knowledge. All of our Circles follow the Chatham House Rule.

 

Topic: Human Resources reimagined

This Roundtable will cover practical outcomes such as handling large volumes of HR interactions, reducing operational effort, and resolving many employee queries without manual intervention.

 

What we’ll cover 

  • A live walkthrough of AHK’s HR Agent, showing how it supports everyday tasks like answering common questions, travel approvals, and leave requests 
  • A straightforward, step‑by‑step approach you can apply in your own organisation—starting small and building over time, with support from IBM and Carrington Associates 

 

The session is designed to be practical and informative, with time for discussion and questions. You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of how agentic AI can simplify HR operations, support employees more effectively, and free up HR teams to focus on higher‑value work. 

 

Who should attend: Any Managers from HR, Finance/ Operations and key decision makers. 

 

We’d be delighted if you could join us for this conversation with IBM and our partner, Carrington Associates.
