Beyond the Hype: AI's Impact on Headcount and Business Value

AI is now central to every executive conversation — not just for innovation, but for productivity, headcount strategy and cost optimization. As AI increasingly decouples revenue growth from workforce size, leaders must separate hype from reality and make informed decisions about jobs, skills and business value. In this session, you’ll learn Gartner’s position on headcount changes, job displacement, skills‑based analysis and value creation, supported by real-world examples. You’ll walk away with a practical lens for evaluating workforce impacts, productivity shifts and the true economic value of AI across critical business processes.

• Evaluate job impact using skills-based analysis rather than role-based assumptions
• Assess the business value and cost implications of AI-driven process redesign
• Real examples of where AI enables labor savings — and where headcount reductions fail to deliver value
