In this compelling episode of The Future of Work® Podcast, we dive into the transformative intersection of artificial intelligence, human‑centered automation and workplace evolution. We’re joined by three industry trail‑blazers: Angela Hood, founder and CEO of ThisWay Global — a company that uses AI to mitigate bias, match talent and unlock human potential across thousands of organizations. Jeremy Fennema, a seasoned IT executive and fractional CTO, who brings over two decades of experience in digital transformation, agile innovation and applying AI inside enterprise workflows. And Ram Srinivasan, an executive consultant and AI adoption leader at JLL, MIT alumnus and author of The Conscious Machine, who explores how AI can amplify human potential rather than replace it.
Together, they unpack critical topics for the future of work — how remote/virtual and in‑office working models will co‑exist, why AI adoption is non‑negotiable for knowledge workers, how organizational practices must evolve to manage bias and human‑centered systems, what the shifting skillsets are for tomorrow’s workforce, and how companies can move beyond the hype of AI into measurable value.
From talent sourcing and diversity ROI to developers, testers and QA in an AI‑augmented world, this conversation is rich with strategic insights and practical take‑aways for leaders, technologists and everyone working at the intersection of people and technology.
