A company with people who are not engaged and do not see a future with the organisation or even their department are likely to see losses. But for, companies that strive for greater growth but also offer continued opportunities for development within the organisation for their employees will discover they experience larger profit and remain competitive in a tight labour market.
Read MoreThe labour market has evolved. In just the last few years, due to the pandemic, social unrest and eruption of remote work, there has become empowerment of the workforce. The way we perform everyday work has changed as well. Employees have an increased desire for flexibility, collaboration, learning opportunities and wellbeing that they are not just asking for but demanding. One direction companies are taking in response to the changes is by re-evaluating what jobs and work mean to all the involved parties and bringing about a new way for work to get done.

Read MoreLeaders are discovering, after the shift in work culture in the post-pandemic era, that they are becoming more dependent on the effectiveness and the efficiency of their teams that work under them. This is great for digitally minded HR professionals and teams alike because of the opportunities they are being presented to provide more business value. But do your teams have the digital mindset to overcome the challenges of these new responsibilities? If not, it is time to shift their mindset to develop better data-driven decisions.

Over the last year we’ve had over one thousand HR professionals complete our HR Skills of the Future assessment, allowing us to create a HR benchmark and providing greater insight into the capability areas that organisations should focus on upskilling their HR functions in.

Read MoreGoals are an important and effective way to spark motivation. They serve to energise the goal setter into action, either through intrinsic motivation (e.g., the feeling of satisfaction you get when you achieve a goal and subsequent increased confidence or self-esteem) or through extrinsic motivation (e.g., an end of year bonus is dependent on achieving your goals). Goal setting therefore leads to increased performance and outcomes as effort increases in line with enhanced motivation. Many of the goals being set by our community of learners at the myHRfuture Academy focus on upskilling to become an experience led, business focused and data driven HR professionals. We’ve been looking at the most popular HR skills and HR resources from 2021 and shifting 2022 HR predictions into practice over on the myHRfuture blog to help shape these goals.
