About this episode
?? Welcome to this extra episode of the Leaders in Finance podcast, recorded live at the CHRO Event 2025 in Soesterberg.
In this episode, we take a look back at a day filled with keynotes, panel discussions, and conversations about the changing role of HR — both within organisations and in the broader context of work and leadership.
Joining host Jeroen Broekema are:
Tom Alstein – Partner at Deloitte
Ruben Verkuijl – CEO and founder of Kayak
René Janssen – CEO and founder of Lepaya
Together, they reflect on the main topics of the day: how the CHRO role is evolving, how organisations are starting to work with AI, and what this means for people, skills, and leadership. They also share what stood out personally — from unexpected insights to practical lessons and things worth thinking about as the workplace continues to change. Enjoy!
