Deloitte Consulting Korea announced on the 27th that it held the '2025 Global Human Capital Trend Seminar' at Brookfield Hall in IFC, Yeouido, Seoul, on the 26th.

This seminar focused on examining the strategic transformation of corporate leadership and the balance point in organizational design, at a time when advances in artificial intelligence (AI) and the rapid proliferation of digital technologies are fundamentally changing organizational structures and ways of working.

The event was attended by more than 50 CHROs (Chief Human Resource Officers) and HR leaders from major Korean companies. Notably, Nicole Scoble Williams, Global Future of Work Leader at Deloitte Consulting, visited Korea in person to share insights on future HR paradigms.

She emphasized, "Due to the spread of AI, the rise of hybrid work environments, and value conflicts between generations, leaders can no longer remain in a single role," adding, "Designing a balance between performance and well-being, technology and humanity, and stability and agility will become a core challenge for leadership."

The seminar featured interactive sessions that enabled real-time communication and engagement among participants, resulting in a high level of immersion. Using the Mentimeter tool, participants shared their views in real time on 'the main dilemmas within their organizations that require balance,' and expanded their insights through discussions comparing global data.

The evolution of managerial roles and organizations’ strategic responses to these changes were also discussed in detail. In particular, the discussion centered on three key competencies: 'the ability to develop people,' 'the ability to design human-machine collaboration,' and 'the ability to establish agile strategies.' Participants exchanged practical questions and opinions based on their own work experience.

Deloitte Consulting Korea also shared two cases of HR strategy projects conducted with Korean companies during the seminar. One case involved the integrated design of organizational culture and talent strategy for an acquired company following an overseas M&A. The other case involved converting a global HR system into an integrated platform to achieve both operational efficiency and enhanced control. Both cases were presented as evidence supporting the need for HR to function as a central axis of business strategy.

Hong Jongseong, CEO of Deloitte Group Korea, stated, "Organizations in the AI era must be redesigned as organic systems that can respond agilely to external changes, rather than as static pyramid structures," and added, "Based on our global insights and domestic implementation experience, Deloitte will make practical contributions to helping companies design a new era of balance."

Choi Giwon, Head of the HC Division at Deloitte Consulting Korea, said, "The role of HR must now evolve into a strategic partner that understands technology and data," and continued, "Deloitte will establish itself as a future-oriented partner for organizational innovation, going beyond traditional HR consulting."
