Zachariah noted that as AI technologies become integrated across business operations, companies must rethink their approaches to talent management and invest in developing new skills among employees.
Talent management as a business priority
Zachariah emphasised that workforce strategy should no longer be viewed solely as an HR responsibility. Instead, he said, it must be addressed at the highest levels of organisational leadership to ensure that talent investments align with broader business objectives in an AI-driven environment.
