    Spilling the Tea on HR Tech - Why employees now prioritize stability over feeling valued and what it means for retention strategy.
    Feb 19 2026
    In this episode of Spilling the Tea on HR Tech, Stacey Harris and Cliff Stevenson break down Workday's announcement of Aneel Bhusri's return as CEO and what it signals about how HR tech companies are repositioning for AI-era challenges. New research reveals employee priorities have shifted more dramatically than at any point in the last 20 years, with organizational stability ranking above feeling valued at work for the first time since 2016. Major acquisitions continue reshaping the skills and assessment landscape, while new data governance solutions point to growing concerns about data quality and AI effectiveness. Key points covered include: ↪️ Workday leadership transition as Carl Eschenbach steps down and founder Aneel Bhusri returns as CEO, with analysis of what this means for customers and partners during the AI transformation. ↪️ Employee engagement research showing stability concerns now outrank feeling valued for the first time in a decade, marking the most dramatic shift in engagement drivers in 20 years. ↪️ Skills infrastructure investments including Phenom acquiring Be Applied for AI-first assessments, Skillsoft's Percipio rebranding, and Workday's Military Skills Mapper for veteran hiring. ↪️ Data governance entering the HR conversation with Pantomath's funding for data lineage tracking and G2's consolidation of software review platforms.

    HR, We Have a Problem - The hyper-adaptive model: Building AI councils and activation hubs that support employees through job redesign and capability shifts.
    Feb 12 2026
    In this episode of HR, We Have a Problem, Teri Zipper and guest Melissa Reeve, creator of the hyper-adaptive model and author of the forthcoming book "Hyper-Adaptive: Rewiring the Enterprise to Become AI Native," explains successful AI integration requires organizations to spend 70% of their effort on people changes rather than technology implementation. The conversation covers how jobs will be deconstructed and reassembled as AI automates tasks, why companies need an "AI North Star" to guide adoption, and what organizational structures must be built to support the transition. Key points covered include: ↪️ Organizations need an "AI North Star"—a clear, compelling business goal that helps employees understand why they're implementing AI and how their roles connect to that mission. ↪️ Companies are building things like AI activation hubs and councils with programmatic support for AI leads, creating networks that atomize learning and deliver relevant information to frontlines quickly as new capabilities emerge. ↪️ Success requires creating protected time and safe spaces for employees to explore AI through their curiosity, such as "prompting parties" where teams compare approaches and discover possibilities together. ↪️ Start by using empathy mapping to identify tasks employees dislike (bug chasing, testing, invoice processing) and demonstrate how AI can handle those activities, shifting mindset from job replacement fears to capability enhancement.

    Spilling the Tea on HR Tech - More acquisitions, the role of HR leaders for assessing the risks associated with business decisions, and what a data privacy lawsuit means for AI-powered recruitment.
    Feb 5 2026
    In this episode of Spilling the Tea on HR Tech, Stacey Harris and Cliff Stevenson discuss the latest tech acquisitions while exploring how AI-powered solutions are reshaping employee experience. The hosts address the Eightfold lawsuit and its implications for data privacy, examine CEO perspectives on AI decisions and implementations, and discuss Greenhouse's mission to make hiring work for everyone. They also touch on the role of HR leaders when business decisions present potential risks and how different generations view the social stances taken by their employers. Key points covered include: ↪️ M&A activity accelerates with acquisitions focused on AI-powered recruitment, global payroll services, and workforce planning capabilities that expand platform offerings across the full employee lifecycle. Acquisition deals discussed include Venture Solution/Distro, Remote/Atlas, Dayforce/Agent Noon, Docebo/365 Talent. ↪️ Eightfold faces legal scrutiny over data disclosure requirements, raising questions about how AI systems use external data sources and what organizations must reveal to candidates about data scraping. ↪️ The recent issues around ICE tactics demonstrate the importance of evaluating potential risks of business decisions involving employee training, hiring incentives, overarching policies, and even language used in communications. All can impact employee safety and shape organizational culture, particularly in times of rapid change. ↪️ Three-quarters of CEOs report being the primary decision maker on AI strategy and 50% believe their job depends on demonstrable ROI from AI use, creating pressure that may lead to rushed implementation without thorough evaluation and risk assessment.
