Back in December, the Future of Work Exchange hosted an exclusive webcast focused on the trends and strategies that would shape the world of talent and work in 2024. Opptly’s Lori Hock (CEO), Beeline’s Teresa Creech (Chief Corporate Development Officer), and Talent Solutions TAPFIN’s Bill Peters (VP of Global Workforce Strategy) joined me to discuss the current and future impact of artificial intelligence, the continued evolution of direct sourcing, the reality of total talent management, the criticality of diversity, and much more.

2024 Predictions
The procurement function plays a critical role within the Future of Work movement. This business unit, in addition to their typical, operational prowess in optimizing spend management and supply management, also holds responsibility for influencing extended and contingent workforce management and its many links to the ways enterprises drive value from their non-employee talent. Ardent Partners and the Future of Work Exchange, in partnership with Beeline and iValua, are excited to host an exclusive webcast tomorrow focused on the big trends and predictions that will shape 2024 for this crucial enterprise function.
Andrew Bartolini (Ardent’s Chief Research Officer), Brian Hoffmeyer (SVP of Market Strategies at Beeline), and Vishal Patel (iValua’s VP of Marketing) will join me for a spirited discussion on hot-button topics such as inflation, economic conditions, the talent wars, extended workforce growth, direct sourcing, and the 2024 impact of artificial intelligence on business operations. Join us tomorrow (Thursday, February 1) at 10am ET. You won’t want to miss this event!

And then there’s cooling inflation, as well, which will (hopefully) contribute to a strong economic year as a better balance between supply and demand converges with a full year of economic and labor market consistency.
The Future of Work Exchange believes there are dozens of factors that will shape the foundation of 2024. Here are, however, four of the most critical trends:
