Making the Right HR Budget Decisions in 2027

As HR leaders look ahead to 2027, budgets are under more scrutiny than ever. AI is changing how teams work, what capabilities they need, and where organizations are willing to invest. At the same time, HR leaders are balancing competing priorities, tighter resources, and growing expectations to demonstrate business impact.
What we'll cover:
  • AI investment priorities: Where HR leaders see the greatest opportunities for AI and which investments are making the 2027 budget.
  • What gets funded: How leaders are evaluating competing HR initiatives and deciding which programs deserve investment.
  • What gets cut: Which tools, programs, and initiatives are being reconsidered as organizations look for greater efficiency and impact.
  • Proving business impact: How HR teams are thinking about ROI, operating metrics, and the business case for new investments.
  • Planning for change: How leaders are building flexibility into 2027 budgets as AI, workforce needs, and business priorities continue to evolve.

Who should join:
This session is designed for HR, People, Talent, and HR Operations leaders involved in annual planning, budgeting, technology decisions, workforce strategy, or executive-level prioritization.
