I don’t think the biggest threat to HR is getting fired by AI.
It may be something much quieter: keeping your job, your title, your team, and even your seat at the table while the biggest decisions about the workforce get made without you.
In this episode of **Is HR Being Fired?**, I break down what Monday.com’s restructuring tells us about the changing role of HR in the age of AI.
We’re looking beyond the layoffs to the bigger questions facing HR leaders:
• What happens when revenue grows but headcount doesn’t?
• Which jobs actually change because of AI?
• Where can companies increase output without increasing headcount?
• Where is human judgment still worth paying for?
• Where is AI and automation riskier than it looks?
• And who will design the organization of the future if HR doesn’t?
This isn’t just a Monday.com story.
CEOs and CFOs are asking new questions about productivity, automation, organizational design, and the workforce. If HR is still answering yesterday’s questions, someone else will answer tomorrow’s.
The future of HR isn’t about defending our seat at the table. It’s about becoming the people who help design what the organization becomes.
