Building a Future-Proof People Agenda with Lisa Skinner Källström

Lisa is a seasoned CHRO with over 20 years in HR to explore what it looks like to intentionally pause, reflect, and reimagine your next career chapter. Lisa shares how she recognized the natural end of a mission-driven CHRO role, why she's now considering a move into consultancy and fractional work, and what that says about how senior HR professionals are rethinking their careers. The conversation moves into broader territory around the future of the people function: how HR can stop fighting for a seat at the table and just earn it, why the people agenda must be woven into the business strategy, and how AI is an opportunity for HR to finally demonstrate its highest-value work. Whether you're a CPO navigating an org transformation or an HR leader wondering how to stay relevant in an AI-accelerated world, this episode offers a grounded, practical perspective from someone who has lived it.
