Why this matters for HR
Agentic AI isn't just chat. It's AI that can take informed action across your systems with guardrails, policies, and context. Think schedule optimization, compliance checks, and proactive insights for managers-done without adding admin overhead.
The sessions above focus on practical wins: clearer workforce visibility, faster decision cycles, and better frontline experiences. If you're evaluating AI, this is a chance to see what's real, what's next, and what delivers measurable ROI.
How to get value from these sessions
- Bring two frontline use cases you want solved this quarter (e.g., attendance risk alerts, shift coverage, skills-based scheduling).
- Ask how UKG Bryte integrates with your HCM, payroll, time, and collaboration stack-and what data it needs to perform well.
- Press for governance details: audit trails, bias controls, data minimization, and role-based access for HR and managers.
- Request outcome metrics: time saved per manager per week, absence rate improvement, overtime accuracy, and forecast accuracy.
- Plan your adoption path: pilot size, training for managers, change support, and a 30-60-90 rollout timeline.
