BUDGETING FOR AN AI-ENABLED TALENT ACQUISITION FUNCTION

We're racing toward the end of the year and inevitably attention turns to plans for the future. But today we face a future which is increasingly difficult to predict and where agility, resilience and ability to quickly pivot without loss of performance are the qualities every function needs to develop to maintain value to the business. What does this mentality mean for how we allocate budget in talent acquisition? Today we're going to debate the issue with industry leaders who have experience of budget planning and have had to balance between competing priorities. 

- Do we spend more on automation and less on payroll? 

- Do we create a buffer to spend on RPO partners who can help us scale up capacity, whilst we retain a lean permanent staff? 

- How about reducing payroll whilst maintaining headcount? 

- Do we spend on hiring entry level talent and ramp up with intensive AI upskilling?

- What does the future look like in 2030 and should we start budgeting to a longer term framework?

- How much recruiting work do we expect hiring managers to be doing in 2030?

- Should we invest in diversification in related fields, adjacent to Talent Acquisition?

- Do we go large with enterprise grade master software, or continue with a core platform + point solutions?

All this and more as we discuss how the changing world of work, is being reflected in the changing priorities of for the talent acquisition function, 

With industry heavyweights Johnny Campbell, CEO (Social Talent), Elaine Atkinson, Leadership Coach (In Wonder Coaching), Kobi Ampoma, Head of Talent Acquisition (The HEINEKEN Company) & friends,
