Baltimore HR Collaborative is a small, invitation-only room of senior HR leaders working on AI and the future of work. This survey is open to anyone with a stake in how AI changes work in Baltimore: HR, employers, workforce and training partners, nonprofits, and the people doing the work. It takes about two minutes. You can respond without giving your name; optional follow-up information is at the end. Results are shared only in aggregate. You don't have to join anything to fill it out.
