Onboarding has long been treated as a checklist: paperwork signed, accounts created, meetings scheduled. That logic is shifting. With AI, onboarding is becoming a data-triggered workflow, one that responds in real time to signals from the new hire rather than following a fixed script.
And it's not just the administrative layer that's changing. AI is also moving into more judgment-adjacent territory: flagging who needs extra support, adjusting the pace of integration, and picking up early signs of disengagement. This raises an unavoidable question for HR professionals: which tasks can be handed to AI outright, and where should it remain in a supporting role to human judgment?
In this session, Peter Treacy unpacks what's changing, what he's seeing in practice, and what HR professionals can start testing in their own organizations.
By the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:
- Recognize the shift from “onboarding as a checklist” to “onboarding as a data-triggered workflow.”
- Describe how AI is moving into judgment-adjacent onboarding work.
- Distinguish tasks AI should own outright vs. tasks where AI should assist a human.
- Identify one onboarding touchpoint in their own organization to test AI on.
