Episode 8: Talent and Innovation
EP 8: Redesigning work in an AI-first world
As AI rapidly reshapes business models, work and workforce structures, the CHRO mandate is expanding beyond traditional people priorities. HR leaders are increasingly expected to understand technology, anticipate emerging capabilities and work alongside other CXOs to shape enterprise transformation. In this episode of People Matters Unplugged, Cheshta Dora, Head of Content & Research at People Matters, explores this shift with Yashwant Mahadik, President – Global Human Resources, Lupin. The conversation looks at why organisations need to move from managing transformation to continuously reimagining how they operate, build talent and create value. Mahadik also shares his perspective on AI adoption across HR and the broader enterprise, the emergence of agentic and physical AI, the changing definition of the workforce, and the leadership capabilities organisations will need as technology evolves.
