HR Tech Key Trends and Takeaways

The People Analytics Board (PAB) met on October 10, with a primary focus on key trends from the recent HR Tech Conference, led by Tom Stone, i4cp’s Senior Research Analyst and Director of Benchmarking. Stone provided a comprehensive overview of the HR Tech 2024 event, which hosted nearly 8,000 attendees and 400 vendors. Despite the hype around AI, only about 44 vendors prominently mentioned it.

Board members also shared insights on recently adopted HR platforms, with discussions focusing on the challenges of implementation, including AI-driven tools and equity-focused platforms.

The group concluded by discussing the future of People Analytics, as HR technology increasingly features LLMs that make data more accessible.

The i4cp Boards are reserved exclusively for the most senior HR executives in organizations. Each Board is designed to serve as a true Board of Directors for the function and ensure its members are in the driver seat of organizational innovation.
