Up Next @ WorkTech! Turbulence, Shakeups, Hype, and the Future of HR Tech

Katie Achille and George LaRocque are back with a fast-moving breakdown of the changes over at Workday, the hype and hazards of vibe coding as it relates to the software market at large, findings from the latest Corporate Equality Index, and more.

Episode highlights include:

  • Does Workday’s CEO transition signal deeper strategic and market pressures?
  • Vibe coding might be accelerating, but remains risky, lacking compliance, scalability and security
  • AI adoption is shifting from “build” to “buy,” with enterprises rapidly increasing investment
  • HR’s role is transforming (again!), requiring new skills to manage AI agents, automated workflows and hybrid human‑machine teams
  • Early‑stage HR Tech funding remains active, while mid‑stage companies face pressure
