HRD People Leaders' Report 2018

by HRD Summit | HR Strategy

It’s no secret that the world of work is changing at a pace that has never been seen before. The rise of technologies such as AI and robotics, the multigenerational workforce, greater demand for flexible working, and the entry of HR to the C-suite – taking a leading role in shaping culture and strategy and inspiring an often global workforce – present both challenges and opportunities for the future.

Indeed, 2019 heralds a new tide of opportunity for HR. With a growing market for talent and demands for improved labor productivity, the role of HR has never been so intertwined with the success of an organization – both on a local and global scale.

Our annual HRD People Leaders’ survey – and this resulting report – illustrate precisely how the world of HR is changing. The results of the survey show that HR executives have become change champions for their businesses, but that the “talent war” is far from won. HR leaders are now tasked with creating organizations in which Baby Boomers, Gen X, Millennials and Gen Z can all thrive – as well as ensuring that they have the right skillsets on board to meet tomorrow’s demanding digital needs.
