How to ‘futureproof’ your organisation’
There’s been a lot of thinking about HR technology and the future of work, but now the ‘doing’ has really started and how do we ‘futureproof’ your organisation.
Indeed, it feels like there’s a growing convergence of workplace trends with the development of technology to support and enhance these trends.
James has come in out and of the HR profession in his career and has felt a shifting yet measured mindset change in HR.
From protection and perfection, towards nimble ways of doing things. To test and learn and fail fast. And the need to ‘futureproof’ organisations.
In technology, this has been the way for a long time and in broader business contexts it is also not new – but this alignment is powerful.
The future of work is an important topic for HR professionals because technology is changing, disrupting and in places killing roles, organisations and industries.
HR Professionals need to lead and assist in the ‘futureproof’ of the organisation’s.
The future cannot be predicted, but that doesn’t mean we should sit, wait and respond to what happens.
As HR professionals, we must be better than that – constantly seeking ideas, information and knowledge.
HR professionals shouldn’t profess to be experts on everything, but each day they should be ready to challenge their whole organisation to move beyond talk about the future of work to really set practical ways to get there.
