Culture, Leadership and Change
The success of any transformation effort can depend on how leaders engage their culture. Culture, however, is different from other business topics: it is implicit rather than explicit, emotional rather than rational — that’s what can make it hard to work with, but that’s also what can make it powerful.
Diversity and inclusion
Organisations are increasingly identifying diversity and inclusion as a key element of the corporate strategy; a diverse workforce drives results and attracts talent.
HR transformation and technology
Leaders are facing complex and conflicting challenges, whether its global skills shortages, economic uncertainty or technology disruption. Responding to these successfully, while delivering on what’s needed tomorrow is daunting but what is certain is that many of today’s biggest business challenges are - in reality - people challenges.
People analytics and insights
People and their skills are fundamental to any organisation. The HR department should play a more strategic role using for example staff data. Yet the use of digital HR data is mostly limited to standard, recurring reports. Also with respect to specific personnel issues, such as high levels of absenteeism owing to sickness or staff turnover rates, the use of data insights opportunities are not yet used to the full extend. How can your HR department apply the power of people analytics to resolve specific issues, generate new insights and make a strategic contribution?
People in deals
As organisations deal with a fast-transforming business environment they are looking into transactions to find the right talented people, technology and ideas to drive innovation and power-up growth. If organisations give sufficient attention to the people-side of a transaction, they can avoid losing transaction value. When they develop a good approach to the people-side of a transaction, they can even add value in the transaction.
Reward and benefits
Remuneration policy leads to all kinds of HR issues, but also with regard to finance and taxation, performance and compliance. Reward policy should be in line with your strategy, support your culture and be acceptable to the stakeholders involved. Not an easy task.
Transformative leadership
