Free virtual event explores new research on generative AI adoption and strategies for HR and L&D leaders to build a future-ready workforce

��ɫ��Ƶ will host a free webinar, “ on Tuesday, May 20, 2025, at 2 p.m. EST. The event will feature ��ɫ��Ƶ Workforce Solutions Group Vice President, Leo Goncalves, alongside , a sought-after HR consultant and the author of , one on corporate universities and two on the future of work. 

The webinar will explore how generative AI (GenAI) is reshaping the workplace and how HR and learning leaders can harness it to boost productivity, drive innovation, and reinvent learning strategies. The event will also unveil findings from the 2025 Generative AI Report: Learning Fuels Human + AI Collaboration, commissioned by ��ɫ��Ƶ. The 2025 findings, which follow the release of the University’s 2024 GenAI Report: L&D’s Breakthrough Moment, show a rapid shift in how employees and employers are seeking to leverage the technology.

“The University’s latest research confirms that GenAI is no longer a future concept, but a present-day force reshaping how we learn and work,” shares Meister. “Industry leaders who use GenAI are moving beyond focusing on increases in productivity, to re-inventing the corporate learning function and demonstrating how GenAI is not just a technology tool, but a new teammate in the workplace.”

The 2025 AI report, based on a national survey of more than 600 HR leaders and workers, reveals that 74% of HR and learning leaders are now piloting or using GenAI in learning and development—up from 40% in 2024. The study also highlights a growing demand for GenAI collaboration skills, with nearly half of leaders and 39% of workers expressing interest in developing the ability to co-create with AI.

However, the report also identifies critical gaps that could hinder progress, including a persistent GenAI gender gap and a disconnect between leader and worker perceptions of AI’s benefits. While 63% of men report using GenAI tools at work monthly or more, only 47% of women say the same. Additionally, workers cite a lack of clear AI usage policies as their top concern.

“We’re entering a new era where organizations won't succeed by using AI alone, they'll thrive by empowering their people to co-create with it,” states Goncalves. “We designed this webinar to help leaders move from insight to implementation. Leaders will walk away with practical strategies for closing adoption gaps, building GenAI fluency, and preparing their teams for a future where humans and AI collaborate seamlessly.”

The session will also highlight real-world examples of how organizations are already using GenAI to scale leadership development and improve team dynamics.

The event is free and open to the public.
