Here, we uncover the key insights from the report, shedding light on the ways AI is revolutionizing employee engagement, productivity, and business impact.
1. The Employee Experience Platform (EXP) has changed from a transactional tool to a dynamic system
The Employee Experience Platform (EXP) has evolved from a transactional tool into a dynamic system that integrates AI to enhance employee experience, improve business impact, and facilitate AI adoption.

The concept of what an EXP is capable of and its potential breadth and impact has expanded in the era of AI; HR and IT leaders should be prepared to understand this seismic shift and strategize accordingly.
2. AI in HR Tech opens the door to hyper-personalization
AI and machine learning have revolutionized the HR technology landscape by providing highly personalized employee experiences, from skilling assessments and learning recommendations, to communications targeted to the right employees at the right time, to getting fundamental HR and IT answers and tasks completed based on your specific role, geographic region, and other employee data. The new EXP interfaces seamlessly with employees, managers, senior leaders, candidates, and contractors, making it indispensable for effective HR management and operations.
