The real question for leaders isn’t how fast you adopt AI . It's which people decisions you are making before you fully understand the consequences.
The Human Capitalist Podcast is the companion to Trent Cotton's Human Capitalist framework and the FutHRist philosophy by translating the future of the CHRO into weekly, actionable intelligence.
Each episode examines the mindsets, models, and moves that separate innovative HR executives from those being left behind. Topics span AI governance, workforce strategy, the evolution of the CHRO role, and what it actually means to build a FutHRist organization.
Hosted by Trent Cotton — 20-year HR executive, author of Sprint Recruiting and High-Performance Recruiting, and the creator of The Human Capitalist framework.
