The Coming of Age of HR

Authored by Colin Sloman, Chief Strategy Officer, Cognician

The 2020s mark the beginning of a new era for Human Resources. What does today's workforce need and how will HR fare moving forward in addressing these needs? This report by Criticaleye Partner Cognician, examines the future 'Decade of HR' and the transition from administration to talent management, recruitment, and retention. 

Key Takeaways include:

  • Today’s key HR priorities can benefit from an improved understanding of human psychology.
  • HR needs to embrace the concept of data science and evidencebased decision-making.
  • Employees are looking for purpose and meaning in their working lives, and without addressing this need, organisations will struggle to achieve their other goals and priorities.
