Should AI and Offshoring Replace Onshore Roles? | Anthony Rice at EOS Conference 2026
AI and offshoring should not start with the question, “Who can we replace?”
Anthony Rice addresses one of the biggest concerns leaders have when thinking about AI, offshoring, and workforce redesign: what happens to the onshore team?
Anthony explains why the goal is not to replace people by default, but to protect onshore teams by moving them into more aligned, valuable, and fulfilling work.
He shares how workforce design can help companies rethink roles over time, especially when seats become vacant, teams change, or certain responsibilities no longer need to stay onshore.
The discussion highlights why AI and offshore resources need to be used thoughtfully.
They should not be treated as simple replacement tools, but as part of a smarter workforce structure that strengthens culture, creates capacity, improves profitability, and supports long-term team retention.
