  • From HR Leader to Trusted Partner

    From HR Leader to Trusted Partner: How to Gain C-Suite Influence in the Era of AI

    Having a seat at the table is no longer enough.

    The real question is whether the executive team trusts HR enough to shape the decisions that matter most.

    In this episode of the People/AI Strategy Forum, Sam Reeve, CEO of CompTeam, speaks with Tom Emery, Founder and CEO of Hex and author of People: Reach Your Full Potential as a CHRO, about what separates a capable HR leader from a truly trusted executive partner.

    Tom brings experience from senior HR and Chief People Officer roles across complex organizations, and his perspective is clear: influence is not built through policy ownership or functional expertise alone. It is built through commercial understanding, credibility, judgment, curiosity, and trust.

    The conversation explores how HR leaders can move beyond being seen primarily as the “people person” and become strategic partners to CEOs, boards, and executive teams.

    Sam and Tom discuss:

    • Why commercial curiosity is essential for HR leaders seeking greater C-suite influence

    • How to clarify expectations and strengthen relationships with CEOs and executive peers

    • Why trust is built over time through challenge, reflection, and productive disagreement

    • How Tom’s OI3C framework can help leaders navigate feedback and difficult conversations

    • What the CHRO IMPACT framework reveals about moving from functional expertise to enterprise leadership

    • Why AI transformation should be approached as a human change challenge, not simply a technology initiative

    The central idea is simple: executive influence is earned through trust, business understanding, and the ability to improve the quality of decisions around the table.

    The strongest people leaders understand the business, ask better questions, observe what others miss, and build enough credibility to challenge the organization when the stakes are high.

    As AI reshapes work, capabilities, and organizational priorities, that role becomes even more important.

    For CHROs, Chief People Officers, HR leaders, CEOs, and other executives, this episode offers a practical perspective on building credibility, strengthening executive relationships, and creating greater impact at the top of the organization.

  • Beyond the Fixed Job - James Terry
    2026/09/16

    Beyond the Fixed Job: How AI and Flexible Talent Are Reshaping the Workforce

    AI is changing more than how people perform their jobs.

    It is changing how organizations define work, deploy talent, and move capability to where the business needs it most.

    In this episode of the People/AI Strategy Forum, Sam Reeve, CEO of CompTeam, speaks with James Terry, Head of US Revenue at Indeed Flex, about how AI, workforce technology, and flexible staffing are reshaping the way organizations find, evaluate, and deploy talent.

    The conversation explores a broader shift in workforce strategy: from managing fixed positions toward managing skills, availability, performance, and business demand.

    Sam and James discuss:

    • Why verified skills and performance data may become more valuable than traditional resumes

    • How AI can improve talent matching and reduce uncertainty in hiring

    • Why flexible labor can help organizations respond to changing demand without overbuilding permanent headcount

    • How turnover, recruiting friction, and rigid hiring requirements can create significant hidden costs

    • Why worker choice and scheduling flexibility increasingly influence talent quality and retention

    • How workforce data can help HR leaders shape operational decisions and improve productivity

    • Why stronger workforce models will combine permanent talent, flexible capacity, and better visibility into skills

    The key question for leaders is becoming less about:

    “How many people do we need?”

    And more about:

    “What capabilities does the business need, when do we need them, and what is the best way to access them?”

    For CEOs, CHROs, operations leaders, and workforce strategists, that shift has implications far beyond staffing. It affects workforce planning, job design, career architecture, scheduling, rewards, and how organizations create value through talent.

    If your organization is rethinking how work is structured or how workforce strategy connects to business performance, CompTeam can help.

  • The Hidden Cost of Offboarding - Andrew Hamilton
    2026/09/09

    The Hidden Cost of Offboarding: Why the Employee Exit Matters More Than Most Leaders Think

    Most organizations obsess over the employee experience while people are inside the business.

    Then someone leaves, and the strategy often disappears.

    That disconnect can create more than a poor final impression. It can expose the organization to unnecessary cost, risk, and reputational damage.

    In this episode of the People/AI Strategy Forum, Sam Reeve, CEO of CompTeam, speaks with Andrew Hamilton, CEO and Co-Founder of When, about why offboarding should be treated as a strategic business issue rather than an administrative afterthought.

    Andrew explains how traditional COBRA practices can leave former employees navigating complex healthcare decisions with limited support, while employers may continue carrying significant claims exposure after those employees have left the organization.

    The conversation explores how organizations can rethink benefits transitions, severance support, and the end of the employee lifecycle to create better outcomes for both employees and the business.

    Sam and Andrew discuss:

    • Why the employee experience should extend beyond the final day of employment

    • How COBRA can create unexpected financial exposure for employers

    • Why traditional COBRA subsidies may not always be the most effective way to support departing employees

    • How AI can help individuals compare healthcare options and make more informed decisions

    • Why human guidance remains important in complex benefits decisions

    • How portable benefits may become more important as careers shift between traditional employment, independent work, and the gig economy

    • Why HR, finance, and benefits leaders should view offboarding as part of broader workforce and risk strategy

    The core message is simple: the employment relationship may end, but the financial, cultural, and reputational impact of that exit can continue.

    For CEOs, CFOs, CHROs, and benefits leaders, improving the exit experience is not only about supporting people. It is also about making smarter business decisions.
