The HARRT at UCLA Learning Lab, a monthly professional development series designed for HR leaders who want to stay ahead of the curve. Each session features thought leaders tackling today’s most provocative and pressing HR challenges—from AI in the workplace to equity initiatives, talent strategy innovations, and cultural transformation.
This isn’t passive learning. Come prepared to engage in substantive discussions, challenge assumptions, and gain actionable insights you can apply immediately. Over the course of an hour, you’ll expand your strategic thinking, connect with fellow HR professionals navigating similar complexities, and build a network of forward-thinking peers.
Join us to sharpen your expertise, broaden your perspective, and position yourself as a future forward leader in your organization.
Session #4 – Clayton Holz, Head of Product at WISQ, one of HARRT’s Partner Members, will present our fourth LEARNING LAB installment entitled: From Vision to Execution: Building an Agentic HR Operating Model.
The group is asked to contemplate that most AI in HR still requires constant oversight—or worse, it creates more work than it removes. What if your HR team could rely on an AI teammate that resolved complex cases, spanned systems, and delivered outcomes in minutes instead of hours? Wisq will share a unique point of view on what it takes to build an agentic HR operating model—one that blends deep HR expertise with autonomous reasoning to transform service delivery and operations. Attendees will gain practical frameworks for redesigning HR processes, aligning policies and organizational structures, and prioritizing agentic AI use cases that can operate in complex, compliance-heavy environments.
Remember, the LEARNING LAB meets virtually every 3rd Thursday of the month. We encourage you to come as you are, prepared to share with cameras and audio enabled.
*In addition to the topics below, there is an opportunity in the registration process to further enrich the conversation by sharing any other thoughts or questions you want us to address during the session.
Key Questions For This Session:
- Share some examples of how AI is creating more work than it removes.
- Would you feel comfortable letting AI operate without constant verification?
- How do you think HR professionals’ roles and value propositions will evolve in an agentic model? Is it just as important as the technical implementation?
