EBook Agentic CBHRM
AGENTIC HUMAN RESOURCES - Governance, Leadership and Competency Based Human Resource Management.
Human resource management is being rebuilt from the inside out. Recruiting agents now source, screen, make job offers to candidates. Succession systems refresh continuously rather than once a year. Performance, coaching, compensation and reward decisions begin with an algorithm's recommendation before a manager ever sees the file. Agents determine BEI questions.
Agentic Human Resources is written for the practitioners living through this shift, experiencing this transformation of their profession first hand, grounding every argument in established law, video interviews (body language) challenges/interpretations, current research, examples from advanced Agentic HR practicing firms, and four decades of the author's competency-based HR practice, consulting, and advisory work, in three continents.
Dr. Ganesh Shermon, of Andersen and KPMG (XLRI, MIT Sloan, MSU), with four decades of consulting, industry, and academic experience in competency-based human resource management, builds a complete governance framework, the Algorithmic Charter, showing HR leaders how to extend the discipline they already know, AI competency dictionaries, behavioral assessment, Agent workforce planning, Agent Supervision - Structures, Human In The Loop, into the policies, boundaries, audits, and accountability an agentic HR function now requires.
The book applies this framework across Sourcing, Recruiting, Assessments, Talent Management, Learning, Performance, Psychometric Testing, Mobility, Succession, Rewards, Career, Capabilities, and Culture, the actual daily work of HR, and shows why competency, not technology, determines whether agentic tools strengthen a function or quietly amplify its weaknesses.
This is, above all, a book about Artificial Intelligence for HR professionals, custom-made as an Execution Manual, with a fine blend of AI HR developments seamlessly merging with Competency-Based HRM concepts, practices, and case studies.
The book covers the influence of Algorithms, AI, and Agentic Agents in the HR function and people management. Every aspect of AI's inroad into HR has been dealt with, from strategies, functions to roles, competencies, structures, metrics, HR Tech, and CHRO responsibilities.
The book concludes with a Transformation Charter for HR Leaders.
Written by an HR Transformation specialist for professionals, recruiters, consultants, leaders in HR, CHROs, and CEOs-board members who must make these decisions inside real organizations, Agentic HR gives its readers something rare in the current conversation about AI at work: a specific, evidence-grounded, "How To Transform" experience sharing manual.
