The past year has been a rollercoaster for HR professionals. When the pandemic hit, how ready was your organization to respond?

Digital transformation has been at the forefront of the agenda for many organisations (almost 60% of c-suite and HR leaders say they’re even more focused on digital transformation as a result of the pandemic ) – but how successful has HR been in delivering on it? When 40% of HR and People leaders also say they’re lagging behind in the right skills to use new technologies in HR effectively, what needs to change?

Join this webinar for a lively interactive discussion supported by insights from Sage’s new research report “HR in the moment: Changing expectations and perceptions of HR”, and deep dive into:

  • How HR teams used tech to respond when the pandemic hit, and the changed role HR will play in digital transformation going forward.
  • How HR and People leaders are using digital strategies today
  • How lack of investment in technology is affecting future readiness and how to change the conversation.
  • The digital skills your HR teams need moving forward, what’s holding HR back, and what HR leaders can do about it
