AI agents: Where are they now? From proof of concept to success stories<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0— from hrexecutive.com by Jill Barth<\/p>\n

The 4 Rs framework
\n<\/strong>Salesforce has developed what Holt Ware calls the \u201c4 Rs for AI agent success.\u201d They are:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Redesign by combining AI and human capabilities.<\/strong>\u00a0This requires treating agents like new hires that need proper onboarding and management.<\/li>\n
  2. Reskilling should focus on learning future skills.<\/strong>\u00a0\u201cWe think we know what they are,\u201d Holt Ware notes, \u201cbut they will continue to change.\u201d<\/li>\n
  3. Redeploy highly skilled people to determine how roles will change.\u00a0<\/strong>When Salesforce launched an AI coding assistant, Holt Ware recalls, \u201cWe woke up the next day and said, \u2018What do we do with these people now that they have more capacity?\u2019 \u201d Their answer was to create an entirely new role: Forward-Deployed Engineers. This role has since played a growing part in driving customer success.<\/li>\n
  4. Rebalance workforce planning.<\/strong>\u00a0Holt Ware references a CHRO who \u201cfamously said that this will be the last year we ever do workforce planning and it\u2019s only people; next year, every team will be supplemented with agents.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
