Tune in to our newest episode! The HR leader who barely used AI just became its biggest advocate. Meet Courtney LaTurner, MPS HRER, Senior Director, People Operations & HR Business Partner at SecurityScorecard, who went from using ChatGPT as "a new Google" to calling it her "best friend" in just months. The catalyst? Getting thrown into payroll, benefits, and people ops with zero experience and tight deadlines. Talk about sink or swim! But here's where it gets interesting... Instead of drowning in spreadsheets and compliance questions, Courtney discovered something powerful: AI doesn't want your job, it wants to make you unstoppable at it. What she uncovered: → Excel formulas that would make your finance team jealous → Coaching prompts that turn difficult conversations into breakthroughs   → Why the "AI will replace us" fear is keeping HR behind while other functions leap ahead → How one company challenge got EVERY department innovating with AI ...and more! Her boldest claim? "If you're getting through your backlog faster than competitors, what a strategic advantage that's gonna give you."
