Most of us can see that AI is reshaping our working lives. But what if you could actually see the data on exactly which parts of your job are heading for automation, and which skills you should be doubling down on right now because AI can’t do them better than you? 

That’s precisely what this week’s guest, Helena Turpin, and her company GoFIGR have built. Helena is the co-founder and CEO of GoFIGR, a workforce intelligence company that helps organisations make smarter and more human decisions about their future workforce.

In this episode, Helena shares what she’s seeing inside organisations right now and what typically surprises leaders when they see their GoFIGR data for the first time.

Happily, there’s also a genuinely optimistic strand running through this conversation. Helena makes a compelling case for redesigning roles around what humans do best and how we’ve imagined and constructed roles before, and that now it’s time for us to do this again. 

In this episode you’ll also learn:

• The sobering percentage of tasks across typical HR roles that are likely to be impacted by AI
• Examples of the uniquely human skills where humans will continue to do a better job than AI 
• The three AI adoption scenarios Helena models for organisations, and how even those opting to go ‘light on’ with AI will still be far more impacted than they realise 
• Why imagination may just be the key to how our roles will look in future, and . . .
• How GoFIGR’s free assessment tool disaggregates your role into individual tasks and shows you which tasks AI will automate or lead on, and which skills you should focus on building.

Helena’s perspective is grounded, data-led and surprisingly optimistic. She believes the future of work is ours to create, and this conversation will help you feel more equipped to do exactly that.
