Sep 18 - 19, 2026. Two days live, 12:00 to 4:00 ET. Limited seats.
SOUND LIKE YOUR REALITY?
More work. Fewer people. And now: "build the agents?"
You got the AI mandate without the clarity to questions you are grappling with.
Am I already falling behind?
Do I need to become technical or learn to code?
There are too many tools. Where do I even begin?
How do I move from AI experimentation to business results I can show?
How do I use AI without exposure to AI regulation?
Will automation strip out the human judgment HR is supposed to protect?
How do I build my AI capability while doing more with less?
The HR job description is being rewritten.
Recruiter, business partner, and people operations postings now carry the same expectations: Build and Govern AI Agents.
Here is what large employers are asking people leaders to do:
TALENT AI LEAD
Design and build working AI prototypes and automations, from scoping the problem to putting a functional solution in front of stakeholders.
Recruiter
Run sourcing and screening through AI agents, review their output for accuracy and bias, and stay accountable for every hiring decision they touch.
HR business partner
Advise leaders on which work moves to agents and which stays human, and redesign roles and workflows around that split.
People operations lead
Supervise AI agents in production and track performance for each one: accuracy, timeliness, reliability, process outcomes.
Enterprises are already retitling their top people leader to cover AI enablement. AI-skilled HR roles carry a 20 to 35% pay premium.

Two days. Three working agents. Proof you can show.
Where you are today
- You have the AI mandate, but no roadmap for what HR should actually build
- AI use is uneven across your team, with no shared baseline
- Tool choices get made under pressure, and nobody owns the outcome
- Governance, privacy and bias questions are still unanswered
- You are reading about agents rather than building them
Where you are after two days
- Three working agents running on real problems from your own HR function
- A repeatable build method you can teach the rest of your team
- A clear view of which work moves to agents and which stays human
- Guardrails written down: tests, a human approval gate, a governance record
- Proof of your AI capability you can show your CHRO in a single meeting

The result
Built in week one
A screening agent that cut first-pass review from two days to two hours.
I came in able to talk about AI and left able to build with it. The difference in how my CHRO listens to me is hard to overstate.

What HR leaders say after attending my workshops
This was an incredibly informative AI for HR workshop, I was amazed at what you packed into one hour, keeping us fully engaged throughout. I look forward to attending as many of your sessions as possible in the months ahead. Gamechanger! Thank you!
I loved the following: demystifying application of AI, anchoring the key points from Gartner's study, simple tips like 'extract key insights' vs 'summarize'. I would like to see more practical application, perhaps a case study walk through.
This was a most interesting outlook on where HR is going with AI, whether we want to or not. Aarti is doing a great job creating context and explaining what's happening and what that means for the work of HR. Definitely worth watching!
Thank you for the insightful session. It helped me connect key concepts and uncover new opportunities to streamline and accelerate my workflows with AI.
I learned way more in one hour than I expected, and built my first HR project in Claude as a result.
It moved fast from 'What is AI?' to 'How do I use it today and tomorrow?' Concrete, actionable.
The smoothest session, run with ease. Rich HR experience meets a real passion for AI.
An awesome session. I learned SO much.

The two days
Two days. Three agents. Proof you can point to.
Short prework, two live build days, and a project afterwards that turns the work into a method you can repeat.
Prework
Come in with a problem, not a blank page
About 30 minutes, done in your own time before the cohort starts.
Find your AI archetype
A short diagnostic that shows how you actually work with AI today, and where your fastest gains are.
Pick the problem you want solved
A few reflection exercises to land on one real problem from your own HR function to build against.
Set up your tools
Everything is no-code. You arrive with accounts ready so day one starts with building, not admin.
Day 1
Fundamentals, then your first working agent
Four live hours, 12:00 to 4:00 ET.
AI fundamentals in HR language
Types of AI, what an agent actually is, and where AI runs out of road. Enough to tell a real shift from a marketing gimmick.
Prompt and context engineering
Why most HR prompts fail, and the context patterns that make output reliable enough to use at work.
Build agent one, live
Turn messy HR data sources into a live artifact that runs on a schedule. Built by you, in the session.
Test it before you trust it
Run your agent against real cases, find where it breaks, and fix it while you have help in the room.
Day 2
Two more agents, then the guardrails
Four live hours, 12:00 to 4:00 ET.
Your personal HR intelligence agent
An agent that keeps you current on the things you are accountable for, without the daily reading pile.
A workforce scenario planning agent
Model headcount and capability scenarios you can take into a leadership conversation.
Catch them being confidently wrong
Structured testing, a human approval gate, and what to do when an agent is plausible but incorrect.
Responsible AI and the governance record
Privacy, bias and regulation in practical terms, written up as a one-page record your legal team will accept.
After
The method, and what you build next
About one hour of project work, on your own schedule.
The repeatable build method
A way to build any agent that holds up whichever AI tool you use next year.
Your 30-day plan
The next agent, scoped and scheduled, sized to the time you actually have.
Certificate and portfolio
Your agents, your test logs and your governance record, packaged so you can show them.
Two days. Three working agents. Proof you can show.
