A keynote on artificial intelligence for human resources directors and their teams. Romain Rissoan illuminates practical AI applications in recruitment, learning and development, employer branding and team productivity — and the pivotal role HR plays in driving AI adoption across the organisation.
Generative AI is fundamentally reshaping roles, skills and how work is organised. Human resources teams find themselves on the front line — and on two fronts at once: equipping their own processes (recruitment, learning, employer branding) and, above all, steering the organisation's transformation in response to AI. This is a new and strategic responsibility: no other function is better placed to build AI literacy across the business and lead change management.
This keynote on AI for HR offers a dual perspective. On one hand, it covers practical AI applications for the HR function itself; on the other, it addresses the change management required to bring every employee on the journey. Romain Rissoan, who has trained more than 10,000 people in AI and digital transformation, speaks here as much about people and accompaniment as about tools and productivity.
The talk is aimed at HR directors, L&D managers, talent acquisition leads and people development professionals. It delivers immediately actionable insights for the HR function, as well as a roadmap for building AI literacy: how to raise awareness, train people and bring teams along so that AI becomes a shared asset rather than a source of anxiety or internal division.
Use cases for the HR function and for the wider organisation.
AI accelerates the drafting of compelling job postings, CV screening and initial candidate qualification, while keeping human judgement at the centre of final decisions. Recruiters handle more applications with greater consistency, reduce time-to-hire and free their time for interviews and in-depth evaluation — where their judgement and people skills truly make the difference.
Producing job ads, LinkedIn posts, careers pages, internal newsletters and communications becomes considerably faster with generative AI. HR teams gain in responsiveness and consistency, adapt their messages to every channel and build a coherent employer brand — without constantly depending on an agency or external supplier to do so.
AI helps design learning pathways, materials and assessments, and personalise skills development according to each person's level and role. L&D managers produce high-quality content more quickly, adapt programmes continuously and offer employees a more individual and engaging learning experience.
Beyond the HR function itself, it is often HR that bears responsibility for rolling out good AI practices across the entire organisation. By identifying use cases by department, training staff and sharing best practices, HR can deliver time savings for all teams and embed a lasting culture of AI.
An internal AI assistant answers employees' recurring questions instantly — leave entitlements, payroll, processes, internal mobility — drawing on the company's own documents. HR teams shed repetitive queries, employees get reliable answers at any hour, and the HR service can refocus on high-value accompaniment.
