In a recent LinkedIn post, Jason Averbook highlights an upcoming workshop designed to equip HR leaders with practical strategies for AI-enabled digital transformation. Averbook emphasizes that the session, co-led with JESS at the UNLEASH AI Summit in Las Vegas, is a departure from traditional conference presentations, focusing instead on a hands-on, actionable framework.

“This isn’t a ‘watch us present slides for three hours’ situation. It’s a hands-on workshop designed to give #HR leaders a real framework for AI-enabled digital transformation, one they can actually take home and put to work.”

A Practical Framework for AI in HR

Averbook details the core components of the workshop, which aims to demystify the application and deployment of artificial intelligence within human resources technology. As the post outlines, the session will cover key areas essential for successful AI integration:

  • The various types and applications of AI relevant to workforce technologies.
  • Practical guidance on how to effectively deploy these AI solutions.
  • Methods for measuring the success and impact of AI initiatives.
  • Strategies for scaling AI value across an entire organization.

According to Averbook, the workshop is tailored for HR leaders who are seeking clarity on where to begin with AI or how to transition from initial pilot programs to more substantial, meaningful implementations. He states:

“If you’ve been wondering where to start with AI or how to move from pilot to something meaningful, this is the room you want to be in.”

The Synergy of Strategy, Experience, and Technology

Averbook underscores the collaborative effort behind developing this workshop, noting his work with JESS on addressing these challenges. The inclusion of UKG as a partner further strengthens the session’s offerings, bringing a critical technology perspective to the strategic and experiential insights being shared.

Combining Expertise for Real-World Impact

In Averbook’s view, the combination of strategic planning, hands-on experience, and technological understanding is precisely what leaders require in the current business environment. He argues that this integrated approach is crucial for navigating the complexities of AI adoption in HR.

“The combination of strategy, real-world experience, and technology perspective is exactly what leaders need right now.”

The session is scheduled to take place on March 17th, from 12:30 PM to 4:00 PM at Caesars Forum, marking the start of UNLEASH America 2026. Averbook invites attendees to join them to collaboratively build towards a future where AI is effectively leveraged in HR. Registration details are provided via a link in the original post.
