Beyond Deployment: Activating AI and Copilot Adoption Through Behavior Change

August 12, 2026

Most organizations have deployed AI tools. Far fewer have achieved real adoption.

This session of the Skills Roundtable Series explores why AI adoption stalls after launch — and what it actually takes to drive sustained behavior change at scale.

Together with our partner Cognician, we’ll examine the “Laws of AI Adoption,” discuss what separates AI rollout from AI activation, and share practical lessons from enterprise Copilot and AI implementation programs.

Designed for HR, Talent, L&D, Workforce Transformation, and Digital Workplace leaders navigating AI adoption, skills strategy, and workforce capability-building.

The Economics of Skills: Cost, Productivity, and Capability ROI


September 16, 2026

A skills strategy does not scale on potential alone. It scales when it delivers measurable business value.

In this roundtable, HR, Talent, and Learning leaders will explore how organizations are connecting skills to economic outcomes by:

  • Identifying where skills drive cost, productivity, and risk
  • Reducing reliance on external hiring and outsourcing through internal capability
  • Improving time to proficiency and workforce deployment decisions
  • Translating skills data into credible ROI narratives for business and finance leaders

This session is designed for leaders who recognize that skills must be understood not just as a talent strategy—but as a driver of operational and financial performance.

Skills-Powered Workforce Planning: Headcount to Capability


October 14, 2026

Most workforce planning still starts with headcount.

But the more strategic question is: Do we have the skills we need to deliver the business strategy?

As AI, automation, and business transformation reshape work, HR and talent leaders need better ways to identify future capability needs, understand skill gaps, and make build/buy/borrow decisions before risks become urgent.

We’ll begin with a short mini-case study, then move into peer discussion on what organizations are actually doing to connect skills strategy with strategic workforce planning.

We’ll explore:

  • How organizations are identifying future skill demand
  • What skills data is useful enough for workforce planning
  • How to avoid overengineering the process before value is proven

This session is designed for HR, Talent, L&D, Workforce Planning, and transformation leaders working through the practical realities of skills-based talent strategy.

From Skills Pilot to Enterprise Scale: The Decisions That Determine What Happens Next

November 11, 2026

Launching a skills pilot is relatively easy. Scaling it across an enterprise is where the real complexity begins.

As organizations move beyond isolated experiments, they face a new set of questions:

  • Which use cases are worth scaling?
  • Is the underlying skills data trustworthy enough to support workforce decisions?
  • Who owns the skills architecture, governance, and data quality?
  • How should skills connect across talent acquisition, learning, mobility, workforce planning, and talent technology?
  • What should be standardized—and where should the business retain flexibility?

This is a discussion-driven session for practitioners actively designing, piloting, or scaling skills-based talent practices—not a presentation or vendor demonstration.
