AI is changing how companies hire, manage employees, and get work done. But are businesses prepared for the HR, compliance, and workplace challenges that come with it?

In this episode of Liftoff with Keith, Keith sits down with Sara Skowronski of EOS HR and AI Consulting to explore how small businesses can adopt AI while protecting their people, data, and organization.

With 25+ years of HR and employment law experience and expertise in AI consulting, Sara shares a practical perspective on where AI and HR intersect, from hiring and employee policies to training and productivity.

They discuss:

Why every company needs an AI policy
The HR risks of employees using personal AI tools
How AI can affect hiring and recruitment
Why humans must remain involved in AI-assisted hiring decisions
How AI can dramatically reduce repetitive HR work
Why AI training needs to be specific to each role
The difference between AI literacy and simply knowing how to use ChatGPT
Who should own AI implementation inside a company
How small businesses can increase productivity without immediately increasing headcount
Sara's AI Clarity Roadmap
How Sara uses a personal AI chief of staff to stay focused
Why clear expectations remain one of the most important parts of managing employees
