Join Cisco's Kelly Jones and Michael Kiley to explore how HR leaders can navigate continuous transformation while keeping people, culture, and business performance aligned.

Drawing from their experience leading global organizations through change, Kelly and Mike will share perspectives on leadership, workforce evolution, AI, and the new expectations shaping the future of work. You'll leave with practical insights on building resilient organizations and leading with clarity in a rapidly changing world.

The technology we use to hire people is about to undergo its most significant transformation in decades. AI won't simply make today's recruiting processes faster — it will force us to reconsider the processes themselves. And few people are better positioned to speak to that shift than Mike Boufford, who spent years building the hiring infrastructure the industry runs on today at Greenhouse, and now leads People Products at Anthropic.

In this candid, forward-looking conversation, TA expert Tim Sackett and Mike Boufford will explore what happens when organizations stop layering new technology onto outdated hiring practices and start rebuilding the hiring journey around intelligence, evidence, and outcomes. They'll challenge the industry's dependence on resumes, credentials, intuition, and traditional recruiting metrics — and lay out a future in which organizations finally have a clear, evidence-based understanding of what actually predicts performance.

You'll leave with a clearer picture of where hiring technology is headed, which long-standing assumptions are ready to be challenged, and how talent leaders can start preparing for a future where the goal isn't just to hire faster — it's to make dramatically better decisions about people.
