Accepting her first CHRO appointment in a new company and new business - 11 months in. How does the experience compare to expectations? What is different becoming the CHRO from being a senior leader in HR? - and what are the most urgent tasks to focus on. What a great point in time for a sit-down and conversation!Welcome to another Employee Experience Labs podcast from the Munich Podcast studio. Employee Experience Labs Podcasts are about HR Tech, Employee Experience, Shared Service and other interesting topics around HR at the workplace.We continue our most successful season so far "From the Workbook of an HR Leader" where I am talking to experienced colleagues in our field about their daily working routine and what and how they are going about the various challenges they have to face each day.I am a tireless believer that we can all be better if we learn from each other, but there are not many opportunities to actually do that - yes, there are conferences, but how often can you attend one in a year? yes, there are peer-to-peer connections, but how many do you manage to keep running?I am a firm believer that we can all do a better job if we learn from each other and so I am inviting seasoned HR experts from various fields and companies to tell us about their workday and how they go about the challenges of today.I was waiting 11 months to record today's episode as my guest had just decided to change employers and step up the final step in the HR career ladder - accepting an offer for a CHRO position - when we started to talk about having her on my podcast, talking about her experience. But today is the day and I am excited to speak with Sofie Mørch CHRO at Kamstrup.  Sofie and I go way back and have managed to stay connected and have regular exchanges over the years. I always value connecting with her and am really excited to have our latest conversation recorded. Sofie is not an HR practitioner by education. She started out in business before turning to the "dark side" - just joking. And her deep experience across multiple companies, HR and non-HR career stations makes her a great fit for the role she is in now. And so, after almost a year in role, I was keen to understand more. And it is truly interesting to get her perspective. We talked about what is as expected, what is different and how is she approaching this career step - and of course we talked about experience, technology and AI. But let me pause here - listen for yourself: Meet Sofie Mørch, CHRO at Kamstrup...Music by Bensound.

23 years in the same company, a seasoned expert in HR, Service Delivery, HR Technology, and of course Employee Experience - bringing his own lens with learnings and applied ideas. What a great conversation!Welcome to another Employee Experience Labs podcast from the Munich Podcast studio. Employee Experience Labs Podcasts are about HR Tech, Employee Experience, Shared Service and other interesting topics around HR at the workplace.We continue our most successful season so far "From the Workbook of an HR Leader" where I am talking to experienced colleagues in our field about their daily working routine and what and how they are going about the various challenges they have to face each day.I am a tireless believer that we can all be better if we learn from each other, but there are not many opportunities to actually do that - yes, there are conferences, but how often can you attend one in a year? yes, there are peer-to-peer connections, but how many do you manage to keep running?I am a firm believer that we can all do a better job if we learn from each other and so I am inviting seasoned HR experts from various fields and companies to tell us about their workday and how they go about the challenges of today.I was waiting long to record today's episode as my guest is very busy and time-zone and business travels did not align for some time. But today I am talking to a good colleague of mine, the SVP HR and Global Business Services at P&G - Onur Karakus. Onur has started his career 23 years ago at P&G in Istanbul and has since then experienced probably any role the HR function has to offer -  and that across continents. Starting in Europe, moving to Asia, and landing finally in the US. Throughout each role and each station, Onur has left a mark and also learned a lot. He is like me a firm believer of a growth mindset - and as excited about innovation in our space as well. But also focused on the business case, deeply rooted in the understanding that our function is a supporting function and everything we do must be in service of the wider employee and company success. We have talked about his different stations, HR structure, and of course AI and innovation. But let me pause here - listen for yourself: Meet Onur Karakus, SVP HR and Global Business Services...Music by Bensound

How is AI influencing not only HR but transforming the whole enterprise? Why is now HR's time to shine and command the table, rather than just sitting on it? And how is it HR's inherent destination to widen its scope from just the human workforce to the human and AI workforce?Welcome to another Employee Experience Labs podcast from the Munich Podcast studio. Employee Experience Labs Podcasts are about HR Tech, Employee Experience, Shared Service and other interesting topics around HR at the workplace.We continue our most successful season so far "From the Workbook of an HR Leader" where I am talking to experienced colleagues in our field about their daily working routine and what and how they are going about the various challenges they have to face each day.I am a tireless believer that we can all be better if we learn from each other, but there are not many opportunities to actually do that - yes, there are conferences, but how often can you attend one in a year? yes, there are peer-to-peer connections, but how many do you manage to keep running?I am a firm believer that we can all do a better job if we learn from each other and so I am inviting seasoned HR experts from various fields and companies to tell us about their workday and how they go about the challenges of today.For today's episode I have something special. I was talking to a seasoned HR expert that has not only seen it all but worked and shaped HR in multiple roles across multiple regions in multi-national corporations throughout decades. In her last role she was the CHRO to Africa's biggest retailer - Shoprite  where she successfully transitioned the company into the age of Digital HR. We have of course talked about that - but much more. We have talked about her experiences and learnings but also went deep into the future of our function, especially in the light of technology. Meet Athene van Mazijk.

Who holds stronger bias? People or AI? and why do we accept different answers to the same question from different human colleagues but not from GenAI? And are we actually realising the speed of change that we are undergoing in our HR world currently? There are so many new and influencing factors in the HR and HR tech space currently that we just run with and because of this speed we hardly see how quick we are changing our environment - but when we look back in 3-5 years we will probably have a Wow effect, and have potentially built the HR organization of one - meaning we can segment our employees to deliver personalized services.Welcome to another Employee Experience Labs podcast from the Munich Podcast studio.

Roland and I dove deep into the HR structure at Allianz and how he makes project success happen in this environment. But we also went very deep into AI, GenAI and how it will significantly change the way how we can service our employees in the future. But before I talk any further, hear for yourself: Roland Kern, COO at Allianz Group HR.Music by Bensound

What is the connection between long lines at the men's and AI? How did working as an investment banker at Wall Street lead to founding an HR tech Start-up?  And I think we all can agree that studying foreign policy and Chinese are good foundations for a job in HR - but how about founding a Recruiting Start-up?Welcome to another Employee Experience Labs podcast from the Munich Podcast studio. Employee Experience Labs Podcasts are about HR Tech, Employee Experience, Shared Service and other interesting topics around HR at the workplace.We continue our most successful season so far "From the Workbook of an HR Leader" where I am talking to experienced colleagues in our field about their daily working routine and what and how they are going about the various challenges they have to face each day.I am a tireless believer that we can all be better if we learn from each other, but there are not many opportunities to actually do that - yes, there are conferences, but how often can you attend one in a year? yes, there are peer-to-peer connections, but how many do you manage to keep running?I am a firm believer that we can all do a better job if we learn from each other and so I am inviting seasoned HR experts from various fields and companies to tell us about their workday and how they go about the challenges of today.Today I am proud to share another special episode of the season where my guest and I have of course talked about HR, and specifically Talent Management and Recruiting - but even more about Technology and AI and how AI is not only transforming our work in HR but whole companies and what special role HR plays in this fascinating transformation we are witnessing but also are a part of. For many of us AI is the 2nd or 3rd big technology-caused transformation in the workplace. And for this one even more than for the others it is true that it is not about technology but it is actually about HR, and it highly depends on HR if a company is successful with its AI transformation. I am extremely excited to had the chance to have Athena Karp, Founder of HiredScore and now part of Workday as guest in my podcast studio. Athena and I met only last year when I had the honor to be part of a panel discussion she moderated. But from the first moment on it was clear to me that I needed to have her as guest in my podcast as she has significantly influenced AI Tech in the HR space already, but I am certain that she will do so much more in the months and years to come. And so we of course talked about the past and what led to today - but we even more talked about the future and how HR work will radically change; not tomorrow but already starting today. I have to admit that we would probably have talked much more then the hour we booked if it were not for busy diaries as there is so much to talk about. But the 50 minutes that are to follow are packed with interesting viewpoints and thought starters. But let me stop here and you can listen for yourself: Athena Karp GM of HiredScore at Workday...

How does wine-making connect with HR Technology and how is the oldest bear company of the world involved in HR innovation?

I am extremely excited to had the chance to have Dave Sohigian CTO at large at Workday as guest in my podcast studio. Dave and I realized that we still remember the days of html-coding and how far someone could get with these skills 3 decades ago - and where they could lead up to. Dave was one of the first hires at Workday, joined in 2010 and over the course of the next decade has significantly influenced Workday as well as the overall HCM tech eco-system. Him and I we talked about that, the early days of Workday but also and with even more excitement about what comes next. If there wouldn't be the constraint of time, I think we would have never stopped but don't worry we have tried to stay on topic as well as shared one or the other anecdote.

How important are Managers for a superior Employee Experience? How critical is it to have the latest technology vs. knowing how to utilize what you have? And why is it important as an Employee Experience practitioner to forget about HR? In another episode of our season "From the Workbook of an HR Leader" I had the pleasure to talk to one of my peers, Nicole Sloane about these things and much more.  In the "From the Workbook of an HR Leader" season of our EX Labs podcasts I am talking to experienced colleagues in our field about their daily working routine and what and how they are going about the various challenges they have to face each day.

Adoption rates of 90%, localized implementations with global standardized processes and technology - and a desire from the HR leadership to do more. If these are your messages at the end of an HR Transformation you can call it a win for sure. However, of course this is difficult to achieve and doesn't come by itself but only through rigorous CI on the way to a transformed HR organization and strong leadership. Wouldn't we all like to be there and have achieved that? Well, we can if we learn the best practices from our peers and adapt them for our journey. Welcome to another Employee Experience Labs podcast from the Munich Podcast studio.

I am a tireless believer that we can all be better if we learn from each other, but there are not many opportunities to actually do that - yes, there are conferences, but how often can you attend one in a year? yes, there are peer-to-peer connections, but how many do you manage to keep running? I am a firm believer that we can all do a better job if we learn from each other and so I have invited seasoned HR experts from various fields and companies to tell us about their workday and how they go about the challenges of today. Today, in the first episode of the season I am talking to Johnny Vega - head of HR Transformation at Reckitt. Johnny and I go way back and have also managed one transformation jointly some ten years back. In our conversation I wanted to understand from Johnny how they managed to bring the transformation at Reckitt to such a big success, but also which challenges he faced and how he solved them.

From 1990s where websites were the latest and greatest to apps to designing the bridge of the future for ships...what a story - but from there to what next? - apparently wait a minute... Welcome to another Employee Experience Labs podcast from the Munich Podcast studio. Employee Experience Labs Podcasts are about HR Tech, Employee Experience, Shared Service and other interesting topics around HR at the workplace.Today's episode is an addition to our Start up and AI series we are running. But I have to admit that the company we are talking about is not really a start-up anymore... but still a company I wanted to introduce and talk to in a bit more depth - because the topic and service this company offers should and rightly so is at the center of what we do in Experience: UK and UI. I had the pleasure to talk Dave Marsh, CEO of Monochrome - a company that designs the Experience into your ServiceNow platform. And how to do this and how not to do this is what we went deep into...and much more starting from video games and going into the discussion why a good process not necessarily brings a good user experience...But listen for yourself: Dave Marsh, CEO Monochrome...Music by Bensound.

What if... your workforce is significantly more productive from one day to the other? What if... all of your employees only do the stuff you have hired them for and can forget about all this admin stuff that take valuable time from them? What if...you can orchestrate all your admin employees with a push of a button and also have the guarantee that they will do their job exactly as outlined in your policies and process documentation?Welcome to another Employee Experience Labs podcast from the Munich Podcast studio. Employee Experience Labs Podcasts are about HR Tech, Employee Experience, Shared Service and other interesting topics around HR at the workplace.Today's episode is an addition to our Start up and AI series we are running. And the AI start-up that I was talking to is just turning three - so is truly a start-up. But this does not mean that it isn't ready to rock the space they are in: Meet EMA - Enterprise Machine Assistants. A start-up focused on making the AI revolution reality.I had the pleasure to talk Swati Trehan COO of EMA. We talked deep around AI, what it can do and how to scale a workforce of AI agents. But we also talked about the hype around AI, the anti-hype around SaaS vendors, and how AI will actually also make BPO companies rethink their business model. And where we landed provide me with a very interesting perspective of the future. And quite frankly, if you don't yet think about your AI workforce, listen or watch our conversation - and even if you are already all hands-on deck when it comes to your AI workforce, you will find quite some interesting nuggets in here. But why am I still talking. Meet Swati Trehan, COO EMA...Music by Bensound.

Is AI just a hype? What makes the difference between companies that are successful with AI vs the companies that are not? Will AI replace work and specialized roles or will it enhance it and make existing workers just more powerful?Welcome to another Employee Experience Labs podcast from the Munich Podcast studio. Employee Experience Labs Podcasts are about HR Tech, Employee Experience, Shared Service and other interesting topics around HR at the workplace.Today's episode is an addition to our Start up and AI series we are running. I invited a former guest back to talk about AI in practice because of the special insights he has in companies' AI usage and success. I had the pleasure to talk again to one of my early guests back to our podcast: Martijn from Datacamp. Datacamp is a company that helps companies and employees acquire critical skills around data and AI. What is he seeing in his work? What are his clients doing and what are the outcomes when it comes to AI? and where is this all leading towards? This and much more we were diving deep in. Listen for yourself: Martijn Theuwissen from DataCamp.Music by Bensound.

In a Bonus Episode of the EXLabs podcast I was talking just before Christmas to a good friend - GoGo - about the Tops and Flops of 2025. Of course we stayed close to AI, what else to be expected...but it was both, Top and Flop. Curious?We also talked about Floating Tanks (*nervous laughter* ), and were discussing AI Slop, however with a bit of a different view of it than Satya...probably for good reasons 😉. - and it is the first ever EXPLICIT podcast I was publishing...listen to it if you are curious about our view on the AI Bubble and if it will burst or not in 2026 - and what the implications might be? But all fun aside, we went deep into the failures of companies to adopt AI and drive towards AI-first operating models. Why is this happening and what needs to change. Will there be companies and people left behind? What do we need to do in order for not going to such a future?Go listen for yourself on. I am sure you will enjoy the conversation.

Is Payroll a good area to apply AI? How would we feel about hallucinations in our pay when still almost 50% of employees live paycheck to paycheck? And thinking further - if not only in payroll but in more and more areas AI will replace humans to get the work done - how does this impact government tax income? And do we need to consider AI-labor taxation and social contributions in payroll?For this and much more I invited a former guest back into the studio, someone that is close to this space for quite some time and sees it all live, every day.Welcome to another Employee Experience Labs podcast from the Munich Podcast studio. Employee Experience Labs Podcasts are about HR Tech, Employee Experience, Shared Service and other interesting topics around HR at the workplace.Today's episode is an addition to our Start up and AI series we are running. But as I had alluded to, it is a special one. We are focusing today more on AI than start-ups, although we are also recapping how some of the start-up ideas from 2 years ago have performed...or not. I was thrilled to talk again to Jeff Phipps, SVP and General Manager ADP Northern Europe. Jeff and I spoke about a variety of topics from gig economy, the AI bubble to payroll and taxation issues of the future. We went deep but always with a grain of salt. But before I say more, listen for yourself: Jeff Phipps SVP ADP and General Manager Northern Europe...Music by Bensound.

Adam has a great story to tell when it comes to his legacy - but an even greater story when we focus on today. Adam is one of the founders of TalentLlama - a skill-based, AI interviewer platform - and we talked in depth about the platform, the dos and don'ts, the how-tos and why this will ensure that the best talents are on the top of the applicant-pile - in a fair and fast process - and not the ones that applied fastest.Let's dive into a great story about how TalentLlama solves an issue many of us are facing...Adam Stokar Co-Founder TalentLlama...Musiccan by Bensound

And how can we help every employee with the right mentor to supercharge their career?Welcome to another Employee Experience Labs podcast from the Munich Podcast studio.

When Parmod and I first started talking, I was excited by his passion for career growth and democratization of development. I could feel it in his voice - but then he also showed me a very exciting functionality that makes CareerSuite.ai special. I won't get into the details here, but be ready to be blown away! - I just say "how do mentoring and digital twins get together?"Before I say more, listen to yourself...Parmod from CareerSuite.aiMusic by Bensound
