Founders & Friends Berlin Meetup - Headcount Planning in the Age of AI
About this Event
👥 September Edition — Headcount Planning in the Age of AI @ Founders & Friends Berlin
For years, headcount planning started with a simple question: how many people do we need?
But when AI agents, automation, freelancers, and external experts can all contribute to a company’s capacity, headcount alone doesn’t tell the whole story anymore.
This September, we’re exploring what workforce planning actually looks like in the age of AI — and how founders and people leaders should rethink teams, productivity, skills, and growth.
👉 What to expect
- Is headcount still the right metric for scaling?
- How AI is changing roles, team structures, and hiring decisions
- What new KPIs should companies consider?
- The HR & AI tools teams are actually experimenting with
- The hidden human workload behind implementing AI
- What founders and HR leaders are most concerned about heading into 2027
And since it’s September in Berlin, expect a little Oktoberfest spirit alongside the conversations. 🍻🥨
