You already have the tools. You already know the processes. Now it's time to connect them.
Most HR/People leaders spend their days jumping between tabs—copying data from one system, pasting it into another, drafting the same types of emails over and over, manually tracking follow-ups. It's exhausting, and it keeps you from the strategic, human-centered work that drew you to your role in the first place.
Here's the shift: AI isn't just for chatting anymore. It's for doing.
In this hands-on webinar, executive leadership coach Leila Bulling Towne and AI engineer Luis Manrique will show you how to identify the workflows consuming your team's time—and transform them into automated systems that run in the background while you focus on what matters most.
This isn't theory. This isn't "someday this will be easier." This is practical, implementable automation you can start building this week.
What You'll Learn:
- Identify and Build Your Highest-Impact Workflows
- The simple audit: Where does your team spend the most time on repetitive work, and how to prioritize which workflows to automate first for maximum return
- Why HR is uniquely positioned for AI transformation (spoiler: most of HR is process)
- Live demonstrations: Watch your co-facilitator Luis build real HR workflows from scratch using tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gumloop—from multi-tab chaos to one-click execution
- Automating employee communications, onboarding workflows, performance reviews, engagement survey analysis, skills tracking, and more
- Shift Your Role from Doing to Monitoring
- The new reality of HR work: machines now handle knowledge work, not just manual tasks—freeing you to focus on judgment, empathy, and strategy
- How to move from note-taker to note-reviewer, from data-entry to data-analyst, and from task executor to workflow designer
- Building confidence in your automated systems while knowing when to keep things human
- Measuring time saved, proving ROI, and maintaining quality and trust while increasing efficiency
