Agenda

The role of businesses and organizations in society has changed. Companies are no longer just “employers” providing jobs. They are now expected to demonstrate a clear mission to employees and ensure people have a clear purpose in their work as well as development opportunities. How do these increased expectations impact HR? What new responsibilities do they bring? And how can HR adapt to drive this change? In this presentation, Josh Bersin will give offer guidelines for leading this transformation in the year ahead.
