In a world where artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly advancing, disrupting entire industries and freeing up valuable work time, there is a need to rethink human resources management.

According to a study conducted by the Indian Institute of Management Bangalore, this technological revolution presents a unique opportunity: the shift from "manual" production to mindfacturing, or mental production. But what does this mean, and what are the implications for companies and employees?

FROM MANUAL WORK TO INTELLECTUAL CREATIVITY

The term mindfacturing describes a new production model that focuses on the use of human cognitive and creative abilities, rather than physical or manual skills. In this new vision, the person or human resource is no longer relegated to repetitive or strictly executive tasks, but is placed at the center of creative, innovative, and strategic processes, where critical thinking, complex problem solving, and imagination become key resources.

As tasks are automated by AI, human resources will be required to exercise more sophisticated skills, freeing up time to develop advanced skills.

THE ROLE OF HUMAN RESOURCES IN THE NEW SCENARIO

With the shift to mindfacturing, it is crucial to rethink human resource management. This change implies a more sensitive and human approach in which employees are active players in the decision making process.

One ok the key aspects highlighted by the studies is the importance of listening to employees in order to gain valuable insights and different perspectives. By being close to the day-to-day work, resources can offer innovative solutions

INVOLVEMENT AND ACTIVE PARTICIPATION

Listening to employees and actively involving them in decision making is key, because while artificial intelligence can perform complex analysis and predictions, human understanding of business and social contexts remains irreplaceable. Encouraging employee participation also means improving a sense of belonging and motivation, reducing turnover, and increasing overall organizational efficiency.

Companies that embrace mindfacturing will need to rethink how they select, train, and develop their workforce to foster creativity, problem-solving, and interpersonal skills-qualities that artificial intelligence cannot replicate. In addtion, they will need leadership capable of driving innovation with an inclusive approach that combines technology with the well-being and development of resources.
