AgileHR – fad or fact?
About his talk
HR clearly plays a pivotal role in building an agile organisation. Leading the way in business-critical areas such as organisational development, talent management, culture and employee experience, HR strategy and processes need to be in tune with what an agile organisation requires to be successful today and how it prepares for the future.
But what does AgileHR really mean for you and your organisation? What does it look like in practical terms and what is so different than before, if anything?
Kevin will address these topics and will help you assess how agile your HR function and related processes are today.
