The new power couple in the C-Suite: why CHRO and CDIO must lead together
Description
The old world of corporate leadership drew clean lines. The Chief HR Officer managed people; the Chief Digital or Technology Officer ran systems. One handled culture and talent pipelines; the other handled infrastructure and transformation. In the age of AI, that division is no longer viable.
Digital transformation is not just about systems - and people strategy is not just about headcount. The two have become inextricably linked.
For CEOs, this signals a profound shift. The C-Suite’s new “power couple” is HR and Digital.
We caught up with Caroline Basyn, CDIO and Daniela Seabrook, CHRO (both at the Adecco Group), to explore the changing dynamic. As Caroline summarised: “The collaboration between HR and Tech is more important than ever. It’s not about who is more important, it’s about how the combination of the two can make a difference."
