A week at Almedalen made one thing obvious. Most leaders shaping how Sweden thinks about AI have only ever touched Copilot or the free ChatGPT, and that single reference point is quietly capping what entire organizations believe AI can do.

In this episode:

  • Why almost nobody picks their own model, and how a Microsoft license becomes an AI strategy by accident
  • The screwdriver vs power drill problem. Copilot solves the job, but it sets your expectations far too low
  • How a single default tool shrinks the whole organization's sense of what AI is capable of
  • The shadow IT trap, where your best people quietly run Claude or ChatGPT on the side and you lose both security and their hard-won knowledge
  • Why limiting people to one tool becomes an employer branding problem over time
  • What the real frontrunners do instead. Securing Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini and letting people choose
  • The blunt take on IT departments that claim multi-model access is not doable on security grounds

Anthropic just dropped Claude Fable 5, and I've run it through the same test suite he's used on every major model for 2.5 years. The verdict is clear, but the bigger lesson isn't about the model at all.

In this episode:- Why Fable 5 feels like the most human-like model yet, and how it gives honest, direct feedback instead of patting you on the back- The worker scheduling test (30 people, legal requirements, hard constraints) and how Fable 5 handled it- A real client case where Fable 5 reworked a Copilot Studio workshop deck and improved the flow- The Mythos connection, the security guardrails, and why hacking headlines might be part PR- The pricing cliff on June 22. $10 per input token, $50 per output token, and Johannes's plan to pair Opus 4.8 for creation with Fable 5 for evaluation- The real bottleneck. Models are capable, organizations are not, and why experimentation time is the thing HR must fight for- McKinsey's warning that HR risks becoming a sub-department of IT if it doesn't take the driver's seat now

Organizations keep telling Johannes Sundlo, the host here, "we've got the basics covered, skip ahead." Then he asks them to show how they use AI, and gets blank stares. This episode is about AI shame, where it comes from, and the one step you can't skip.

In this episode:

  • AI shame, what it looks like and why it's more common in 2026 than 2025
  • The pattern behind it. Buyers say "we're proficient, go straight to processes," but the proficiency is a sliver of what the models can do
  • Why this shows up most in leadership teams, and why leaders who skip the grunt work can't set credible AI expectations for their organization
  • The missing step. You can't jump to agentic processes before you've done the unglamorous work of learning what the model can do
  • Educate everyone, including truck drivers without computers, because employees are already getting AI advice on salary and managers in their spare time
  • Why being practical beats strategic-only thinking in AI adoption right now
  • Lessons from roughly 110 workshops this winter and spring, and why Johannes is scaling that down

Yes, you can connect your HR system, ATS, or engagement tool to Claude and ChatGPT. In this episode Johannes Sundlo walks through the exact steps to add an MCP server to both tools, using a safe read-only demo.

In this episode:

  • What an MCP server unlocks for your AI, explained simply
  • Adding a pre-made connector in Claude
  • Adding a custom MCP server in Claude with a URL
  • Why you should start with read-only access
  • Enabling Developer mode and creating an app in ChatGPT
  • Connecting and testing the server in ChatGPT

OpenAI just ran an event called Intelligence at Work, and the releases say a lot about where the world of work is going. Here is what dropped and why it matters for anyone leading AI adoption.

In this episode:

  • Why the bottleneck has shifted from model intelligence to a company's ability to absorb the tech
  • The stat to sit with: 74% of AI's economic value is captured by 20% of companies
  • Codex moving into ChatGPT, and what that means if you are on ChatGPT Enterprise
  • Six role-specific agent plugins, including a data analytics agent that writes queries, builds charts, and produces a deck
  • Annotations: editing one piece of an output instead of regenerating the whole thing, and whether it solves the "last mile" problem
  • Sites: turning Codex outputs into shareable, live dashboards and internal apps (Lovable meets Artifacts)
  • Why OpenAI keeps framing adoption as a human transformation, not an IT project
  • Sam Altman on the next phase: proactive agents that fix things in the background before you ask

Performance reviews have looked the same since the 1950s, and they are still mostly task-based. AI breaks that. This episode asks what we should reward when the tasks get automated and the only thing left to value is human judgment.In this episode:- Why the task-based performance review is the wrong tool for the AI era- The judgment problem. If an agent does the work, how does an employee prove their value, and does the manager even see it- A real CHRO dilemma. Two standard performers became superstars with AI, two former high performers fell behind, and bonus season arrived- Rewarding the behavior of using AI versus rewarding valid, validated output- Why AI makes the manager's job harder, not easier- The hidden cost of a thumbs-up task that creates a ripple of rework downstream- Should we scrap the performance review, hand growth to AI plus manager, or build something new

Three and a half years into the AI shift, most leaders still know AI matters but have no idea how to use it. This episode is about why that gap exists, and why the answer is getting practical.

In this episode:

  • Why leaders keep asking for agentic workflows before they've done the basic Copilot grunt work
  • The uncomfortable question every AI educator should answer: are you in the weeds, or only working "strategically"?
  • Why you can't set new expectations for your team until you understand the new way of working yourself
  • What buyers should demand from anyone selling AI upskilling
  • How to do this for free with YouTube and disciplined facilitation if you don't want to hire someone
  • Why AI should serve your existing strategy, not become a separate "AI strategy"
  • The one-gear Ferrari problem: everyone owns Copilot, almost nobody drives it past first gear

This podcast is hosted by Johannes Sundlo, one of Europe's leading voices on AI adoption in HR and the workplace. He helps organizations move from talking about AI to actually using it, through hands-on workshops, keynotes, and the FullStack HR newsletter.

An impromptu between-episodes take on the AI bubble panic. Johannes cuts through the headlines about rising token costs, Microsoft cutting Claude Code, and Uber's COO questioning AI ROI, and explains what's signal and what's noise.

In this episode:- Why nobody can actually call a bubble, and what the market is and isn't telling us right now- The arguments for a bubble (circular money between NVIDIA and OpenAI) versus against it (Anthropic's first profitable quarter)- Why "rising token costs" is a mislabel. Per-token prices are flat or lower, total spend is what's climbing- How Moore's Law underpins the whole thing: more powerful models for the same or lower price- The full context on Uber blowing its AI budget, and why the COO is far more nuanced than the headlines suggest- Why early subsidize-then-correct cycles are normal, same as railroads, electricity, and the internet- How to do the token economics yourself: if an agent solves a problem cheaper than a human at equal quality, you have your answer- Why the model companies are targeting a ~$58 trillion global labor market, and what that means for their valuations

The short answer is yes.

But yes deserves an explanation. In this episode I make the case for why HR needs to get technically curious right now, and why that has nothing to do with becoming a programmer.

We cover what's worth understanding (APIs, databases, MCP servers, and why they matter for HR), why playing around with tools like Claude Code, Codex, Lovable and Replit makes you a sharper buyer of HR tech, and how one curious person on a team can shift an entire organization. It might not be the CHRO. It might be the HR assistant fresh out of university.

I share what it felt like walking into Spotify with close to zero backend knowledge, why the threshold for connecting systems has dropped, and why "I'm not the technical type" no longer holds as an excuse.

This is where the world is heading. You can ignore it, or you can skate to where the puck is going.

In this episode, Johannes Sundlo explores a growing issue inside organizations adopting AI: the creation of an “A and B team.”

Some employees get access to AI tools, licenses, education, and experimentation opportunities. Others are left behind. Not because of role or capability, but because of interest, visibility, or who happened to push hardest internally.

Johannes argues that this is becoming one of the most overlooked leadership and employer branding challenges in AI adoption.

He discusses:

  • Why selective AI access creates organizational inequality
  • The hidden cultural risks of AI “elite groups”
  • Why the cost argument often falls apart under scrutiny
  • The chicken-and-egg problem of AI adoption
  • Shadow AI and the risks of unsupported tools
  • Why HR cannot leave this entirely to IT
  • How AI access is increasingly becoming a workplace infrastructure question, not an innovation experiment

This is not a conversation about hype or future speculation. It’s about what happens inside organizations right now when some employees are allowed to work with modern tools while others are expected to continue without them.

A practical reflection on leadership, fairness, AI adoption, and the future of work.

Block just fired 4,000 people in a single day. Their CEO Jack Dorsey said it was because of AI. The stock jumped 20%. And the internet lost its mind.

Half the people say this is pure hype. The other half say AI is coming for all of us. I think both sides are wrong, and I have thoughts.

In this video I go through what actually happened at Block, weigh the evidence for and against the AI narrative, talk about why Wall Street loved this so much, and share what I think it means for leaders, employees, and anyone trying to figure out where AI and jobs are actually heading. I also take on the myth that AI skills will protect you from layoffs.

What if an AI manager could do a better job than your current boss? Johannes explores this deliberately provocative question – not to argue that we should replace managers with AI, but to challenge our assumptions about what management is actually for.

From the industrial revolution roots of the manager role to DoorDash's algorithmic task distribution, he examines whether the core function of "making sure work gets done" might be ripe for reinvention.

If AI can handle delegation, and some managers already lack the empathy we claim only humans possess, what should human leaders actually focus on?

A call to start the conversation about leadership's future before it's decided for us.

ROI Reality Check - IBM study shows 66% of companies already see significant AI productivity gains, with 41% expecting ROI within a year. But the gap between large enterprises and SMEs is widening fast.

Ernst & Young's Smart Move - They've built a tool that shows employees exactly how their jobs are changing, what'll be automated, and what skills they need next. Over 200,000 employees have engaged with it.

Citigroup's Scale - 1 million automated code reviews, 7 million AI tool uses, freeing up 100,000 developer hours weekly. This is what productivity at scale actually looks like.The Recruiting Arms Race - 50% of hiring managers use AI to screen candidates. 70% of candidates use AI to write applications and prep for interviews. It's like two AIs playing chess, neither realizing it.

Chipotle's Results - Used conversational AI for 20,000 seasonal hires. Application completion jumped from 50% to 85%, time-to-hire dropped from 12 days to 4.The Big Questions:How do we redesign roles when AI does significant work?What does "knowledge" even mean in the AI era?Do we need to completely rethink the recruitment funnel?The pattern? Companies treating AI as a campaign fail. Those treating it as an operating model win. This isn't about buying licenses and booking training sessions—it's about fundamentally redesigning how work gets done.

This week's news highlights the rapid acceleration of white-collar automation, posing significant challenges for the workforce as training programs lag behind in preparing employees for an ai-driven future. The latest developments in ai adoption are transforming industries at an unprecedented pace, with companies like OpenAI making substantial investments, such as a $1.4 trillion bet on artificial general intelligence. As ai training becomes increasingly crucial for professionals to remain relevant, it is essential to address the gap between the pace of automation and the availability of effective training programs. In this video, we will delve into the implications of these trends and explore the potential consequences for the job market and the future of work. With ai adoption on the rise, it is more important than ever to prioritize ai training and ensure that the workforce is equipped to thrive in an automated economy.

This weeks article argues that while curiosity remains important, it is insufficient on its own for effective leadership and organizational success in the AI era. I'm your host, Johannes Sundlo, highlights three essential traits leaders must combine:

  1. Curiosity – A willingness to explore, ask questions, and learn about AI and new possibilities.
  2. Business Understanding – A deep, practical awareness of what drives their organization, whether in sales, customers, or operations.

3. Action/Experimentation – The ability and willingness to engage hands-on with AI, building and testing solutions rather than just theorizing.

  • Johannes Sundlo is a leading global expert on making AI adoption stick in organisations. With deep HR and leadership expertise, he helps companies worldwide turn AI from theory into daily practice.

✅ 17% higher 30-day retention
✅ 78% of applicants preferred AI over a human recruiter

Recruiters had predicted the opposite. The data proved them wrong.

In this episode, I break down what the study means for HR, fairness, and the future role of recruiters.

In today’s episode, we’re diving into a fascinating study from the University of Gothenburg about the HR Business Partner (HRBP) model in Scandinavian workplaces.

The study highlights some big gaps between the ideal HRBP role and what actually happens in practice. Many HR professionals struggle with the strategic side of the role, and there’s often a disconnect between what line managers need—more operational support—and what the HRBP role is supposed to offer.

One of the key takeaways is the idea of moving towards a team-based approach to HR, which might fit better with the collaborative culture in Scandinavian companies. It’s a reminder that we need to adapt global HR models to fit our local context, rather than just adopting them as-is.

Many in HR exhibit an overly optimistic "this is fine" attitude about AI. But the reality is, AI is already transforming HR workflows and reducing headcounts.

In this episode, we discuss why passive optimism could doom the future of work. Just as past economic shifts brought immense social upheaval, the rise of AI promises to radically reshape the workforce. The difference is, these AI shifts are happening at breakneck speed compared to history.

This urgency requires proactive governance to navigate AI's impact on jobs. We can't casually expect that things will work out fine without deliberate effort to shape a positive future.

Drawing on historical lessons, we explore practical ways HR professionals can lean in to steer towards an ethical, humane AI-powered world of work. The time is now to awaken from passive optimism and guide the way forward.

Folks, I'll admit - I can sometimes get a little carried away jumping on the latest HR tech hype train. And AI has been hyped up immensely as a silver bullet to transform our field.

But recently, I took a step back to dive deeper into the EU's proposed Artificial Intelligence Act and its implications. This sweeping legislation aims to pass by end of 2023 and regulate how companies can deploy AI.

The EU recognizes dangers of unfettered AI in high-stakes HR areas like hiring and performance reviews. Their framework mandates transparency, testing for bias, and human oversight of AI decisions.

Responsible AI governance presents challenges. But it's also a chance to embed ethics into the foundations of HR technology.

Yes, AI hype still outpaces reality. As leaders, we must ensure algorithms uplift work for all - not undermine human dignity.

I’m optimistic about AI’s potential, but sober about the risks. Let’s keep discussing how HR can responsibly shape an intelligent yet human future of work.
