We’re live with another episode of The HR Morning Show — your weekly dose of HR headlines, workplace trends, and candid conversations that matter.

This week, we unpack SAP’s recent acquisition of SmartRecruiters and explore what it means for innovation, AI strategy, and the future of the HCM ecosystem.

Then we’re joined by two incredible guests who are shaping the future of work:

- Kaleem Clarkson, COO of Blend Me, on how trust—not surveillance—is the foundation of great remote work.

- Heather Barbour Fenty, sharing fresh insights on the evolving expectations of modern talent.

From DEI to job architecture to rethinking visibility in distributed teams, this episode is packed with bold takes and practical ideas.
