  • AI Is Exposing the Biggest Lie About Workforce Productivity

    AI Is Exposing the Biggest Lie About Workforce Productivity
    Jan 14 2026
    AI is exposing the productivity problem leaders have ignored for years. Most organizations optimized for activity — not outcomes — and HR now owns the reset. As AI automates more work, it’s exposing a hard truth inside organizations: Much of what we’ve rewarded for years was never real productivity. Slide decks no one reads. Meetings that solve nothing. Reports created for optics, not outcomes. In this video, I break down how AI is revealing the BS economy at work — and why this moment is a critical reset for leaders, HR, and the C-suite. With over 20 years in HR leadership, I’m not here to hype tools or trends. I’m here to help leaders understand AI’s real impact on workforce strategy — and how to redesign work around outcomes, not activity. In this video, you’ll learn: Why AI is automating “busy work” — and why that’s a good thing What productivity studies are really showing (and what they’re not) Why speed without substance doesn’t drive results The leadership blind spot AI can’t fix for you How HR can lead the shift from visibility → value A practical 4-step action plan to redesign roles, workflows, and priorities AI can move faster than humans ever could but it can’t decide what actually matters. That responsibility still belongs to leaders. This is a call to stop scaling broken systems with smarter tools and start rebuilding work for impact, meaning, and growth. _________________________________ 🎯 Who this video is for: HR leaders & executives C-suite decision-makers People leaders navigating AI transformation Organizations serious about real productivity (not performative work) ⏱️ Chapter Timestamps 0:00 Why “Busy” Was Never the Same as Productive 0:45 Why I’m Calling This Out (20+ Years in HR Leadership) 1:45 AI and the Rise of the “BS Economy” 3:05 Why Faster Work Isn’t Better Work 4:10 The Productivity Stat No One Is Talking About 5:00 The Wake-Up Call AI Is Forcing on Leaders 6:15 HR’s Moment to Lead (Not Follow) 6:40 Audit the Busy Loop 7:10 Rebuilding Roles Around Impact 7:50 Why Managers Are the Bottleneck 8:20 Designing for Deep Work 8:55 Final Thought: Redesign.

  • White collar jobs out? Trade jobs in?

    White collar jobs out? Trade jobs in?
    Jan 12 2026
    Two veteran recruiters break down why relationship-driven recruiting, skills-based hiring, and boomerang talent are about to matter more than ever in an AI-driven world. In this episode of The Human Capitalist podcast, I sit down with Top Source Talent founder and Talking TA host, Denise Chaffin, to talk about what’s next for AI in HR, the rise of skilled trades, and how smart companies are quietly winning the talent war by rethinking how, and where, they recruit. We get into: -Why “skills-based hiring” isn’t new to great recruiters—and what’s actually blocking it at the executive level. -How AI is exposing weak middle-management and transactional recruiting, and freeing HR to own productivity, not just process. -Why the godfather of AI is telling people to “train to be a plumber” and what that means for white-collar vs. skilled trades careers. About my guest: Denise Chaffin is the President and founder of Top Source Talent, a Phoenix-based minority, woman-owned talent acquisition firm specializing in hard-to-fill technical and professional roles across industries like semiconductor, medical device, cybersecurity, and government.
