Summary

Welcome back to the number one spot for all things HR! We are kicking off 2026 with a packed show exploring the shifting landscapes of hiring, legal compliance, and talent strategy. In this episode, the team breaks down the "Redefining Hiring in 2026" headline, focusing on why skills agility and AI readiness are no longer optional. We’re joined by Vikram Shetty to tackle the complex legal hurdles facing corporate DEI initiatives amid new political pressures, while also making the case for the "Podcast ROI of DEI." Later, Joey Price and Tami Nutt from Jumpstart HR/Aspect43 stop by to drop their hot-off-the-press HR Compliance Technology Category Guide. They explain why compliance has graduated from a back-office checkbox to a core business reputation issue—especially for small and mid-sized orgs navigating multi-state work and the DOL’s new AI Workforce Hub.
