As artificial intelligence (AI) revolutionizes the workplace, senior HR leaders are facing a defining moment. AI is reshaping how work is done, who does it, and the very nature of workforce planning. In response to this transformative shift, The Learning Forum, in partnership with Reejig, today announced the launch of The Work Design Collaborative, a groundbreaking initiative to help senior HR leaders design, build, and lead the workforce of the future.
The Work Design Collaborative is a dedicated forum for top HR leaders at major U.S. enterprises who are leading AI adoption and workforce transformation. It offers a collaborative space to share insights and pioneer strategies for navigating the profound changes driven by AI in the workplace. The initiative is designed to empower leaders to take an active role in redesigning work processes, aligning employees and AI agents, and embedding development into work itself.
Through quarterly in-person workshops and an ongoing collaboration platform, members gain access to strategic frameworks, practical implementation tools, and real-world insights from peers facing similar challenges.
Why Now?
The timing is imperative. New 2025 McKinsey research reveals that 47% of employees expect AI to transform 30% of their work this year alone. The gap between AI’s promise and reality is striking. BCG research shows that while 74% of organizations struggle to scale AI effectively, a small group of leaders has cracked the code—achieving 1.5x higher revenue growth and 1.6x greater shareholder returns. Their secret isn’t better technology. It’s how they design their work and develop their people.
A Strategic Opportunity for HR Leaders
“AI is not just a technology; it’s a catalyst for rethinking work,” said Meighan Hackett, Director at The Learning Forum. “Senior HR leaders have a critical role to play in aligning workforce strategies with business goals during this transformation. Through its practitioner-focused approach, The Work Design Collaborative provides the space for leaders to come together and lead this change.”
With AI automating tasks, augmenting roles, and creating entirely new positions, the Collaborative focuses on helping leaders:
- Reinvent Work Organization & Design: Reimagine workflows, roles, and task allocation for an AI-driven future
- Establish a Common Language for Work: Define a unified framework for tasks, skills, and roles across your organization
- Redefine Development & Performance Support: Embed development directly into work, enabling continuous upskilling
- Leverage AI Agents Across the Enterprise: Integrate AI agents seamlessly into your workforce
Led by Industry Pioneers
The Work Design Collaborative is guided by the team at Reejig, the global pioneer in intelligent work design who helps organizations boldly reinvent their workforce for the AI era.
“This isn’t just about adapting to AI—it’s about fundamentally reimagining how work gets done,” said Siobhan Savage, CEO of Reejig. “Through The Work Design Collaborative, we’re empowering HR leaders to architect entirely new ways of working that maximize both human potential and AI capabilities. The organizations that get this right won’t just survive the AI revolution—they’ll lead it.”

The Work Design Collaborative is accepting applications for its 2025 cohort. Don’t wait to prepare for the future; lead its design.
