Questions Every CHRO Should Be Asking
At People-AI-HR, we believe the real test for HR leaders is not whether they adopt AI, but how they shape it to empower people and create lasting business value.
The questions below are the ones we see forward-thinking CHROs asking themselves. They challenge leaders to look beyond cost savings and pilot projects, and instead define a vision for growth, trust, and opportunity in the age of AI.
- Do you have a clear vision for how AI will empower growth and create opportunity for your people — rather than just cut costs and risk undermining morale?
- How will you build employee confidence in AI tools — so they are seen as empowering, not threatening?
- How strong are your HR data foundations — from job architecture to skills taxonomy — to support workforce planning and AI at scale?
- When your CEO or Board asks for your HR AI roadmap, can you show measurable value for the business — not just pilots or efficiencies?

- Which areas of HR — hiring, learning, performance, rewards, operations — show the biggest gap between AI’s potential and your readiness?
- Across risks like bias, privacy, employee trust, cost overruns, regulation, and brand reputation — where are you most exposed today?
- How ready is your HR tech ecosystem (Workday, SAP, Oracle, ATS, LMS, ServiceNow) to integrate with GenAI and deliver seamless experiences?
- What mechanisms do you have to monitor, audit, and evolve AI tools — ensuring they stay fair, trusted, and effective over time?
- In the next 12–24 months, what outcome would make you say: “AI has transformed HR here”?
