Balance the emerging trends of tomorrow with the priorities of today.
For five consecutive years, recruiting was HR's top priority. Now, facing economic pressures and a competitive labor market, HR's focus has shifted to developing internal talent, retaining employees, and managing labor costs.
HR must adapt to shifting priorities by enhancing strategic leadership through upskilling, reskilling, and developing more targeted strategies across key HR functions.
While more HR organizations have an overarching HR strategy in 2025, their strategic partnership with the organization is at risk.
Understanding top organizational priorities, enhancing HR's strategic leadership, and addressing key challenges will be essential to meet the demands of 2025 and beyond.
In today’s increasingly complex and rapidly changing environment, leaders are facing increasing demands.
Their evolving role now emphasizes guiding employees toward growth, purpose, and fulfillment while ensuring their wellbeing and a positive employee experience. It’s essential to support leaders in balancing these responsibilities with their own work and managing their teams’ functional tasks.
In the past year, organizations across industries have stood witness to the unprecedented rate and magnitude of change with advanced technology like artificial intelligence (AI). The allure of AI and the potential it promises has led to a rise in widespread adoption in organizations. HR must push the boundaries of AI use cases within HR to enhance employee experience outcomes and establish themselves as strategic partners in the organization’s AI journey.
Making sense of new and varied HR best practices can easily become overwhelming. To cut through the noise, we identified ten emerging trends in the HR landscape and surveyed respondents on the organizational impact they anticipate each practice will have. We also asked them to identify whether they have implemented the practice, are currently in the process of doing so, plan on doing so in 12-18 months, or have no plans to implement.
