The breakdown of static and codified process management means that HR and LOB leaders need to rethink performance to be instructive and collaborative rather than just measured and managed — it also means that HR leaders need to take charge of how to operationalize AI within the workforce toward realizing its full potential. </P><P>"AI transformation is strategic, operational, and data driven, and current executive calls for AI deployment are not reflecting the transitional needs of the first two components," says Zachary Chertok, senior research manager, Employee Experience, IDC. "Modernizing HR leaders have an opportunity to take the lead on organizational AI transformation by setting the strategy for and managing the transitioning and enablement of the workforce for an AI-infused future. HR will need to expand its digital skills footprint, but the outcome will be a true and value-achieving partnership between AI and humans."</P> IDC Perspective Tue, 28 Oct 2025 04:00:00 GMT Zachary Chertok IDC FutureScape: Worldwide Services 2026 Predictions https://my.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=US53858925&utm_medium=rss_feed&utm_source=alert&utm_campaign=rss_syndication <P>This IDC FutureScape forecasts a transformative shift in global IT and business services, driven by modular, AI-enabled platforms, agentic AI, tech stack modernization, and quantum computing, fundamentally altering service delivery, pricing models, workplace dynamics, and enterprise strategies for competitive advantage and value realization. </P><P>"As modular, AI-native services redefine IT delivery, the real question is: Will your enterprise lead the next wave of outcome-driven transformation or be left measuring yesterday's value in a rapidly agentic world?" — Bill Latshaw, research director, Business Consulting Services</P> Tech Buyer Presentation Tue, 28 Oct 2025 04:00:00 GMT Bill Latshaw, Abhishek Mukherjee, Mukesh Dialani, Linus Lai, Nishant Bansal, Raymond Pucci, Jason Bremner, Erin Hichman, Jennifer Hamel, Rijo George Thomas, Lars Goransson, Paolo Cammi, Sreenivas Duvvuri Venkata Market Analysis Perspective: South Africa Hosting Services, 2025 https://my.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=META53599525&utm_medium=rss_feed&utm_source=alert&utm_campaign=rss_syndication <P>This IDC Market Analysis Perspective (MAP) provides an overview of the South African hosting services market and evaluates the impact of current and future enterprise demand trends.
