Anna Carlsson explores why frontline workers—those in retail, healthcare, transport, and more—are the next big opportunity for HR tech. In Sweden often called "Kollektivanställda" or "Bluecollar workers", but without a shared definition. She defines frontline roles, explains the Nordic gap in strategy and terminology, and highlights how mobile-first tools, AI-driven recruitment, and automated onboarding can deliver rapid returns.
Anna urges HR and IT to collaborate, make access a day-one decision, and prioritise frontline in digital strategies so organizations can move from manual processes to scalable, value-driving solutions.

Why Must We Use AI? What's the Rush?

"Why Must We Use AI? What's the Rush?" A question that deserves a real answer.
In this episode, Anna addresses a comment from her LinkedIn follower Lovisa who asked about the urgency behind AI. Is this about chasing AI trends, or is there something more fundamental happening?
We explore why many Nordic organisations still operate without basic HR systems, the connection between digital maturity and strategic influence, real ROI data showing tangible time savings and business improvement, and the paradox of AI training without proper governance.
This isn't about AI hype. It's about building the capability to govern technology before vendors and market forces decide for you.

HR Digital Maturity 2026: What prepared actually means

Monday Jan 12, 2026
What does it actually mean to be prepared for 2026?
In this episode, Anna explores HR digital maturity beyond systems and tools. Instead of talking about future trends in isolation, she breaks down the different maturity levels HR organisations operate within today — from administrative setups to data-driven and integrated environments.
The episode unpacks where HR teams most often get stuck, why many organisations overestimate their digital readiness, and why preparation for 2026 is less about technology and more about capability, structure and conscious choices.
Anna also reflects on the balance between digitalisation, AI and the human dimension — and why focusing on “the human” too early, or in the wrong place, can slow progress rather than enable it.
This episode gives you a clearer reference point for where you are today, and what you realistically need to focus on next.
