Future of Work and Agility
By Invitation – HRD Briefing and Dinner: Realities of the New Working Environment
The coronavirus pandemic has compressed several years’ worth of change to organisation cultures and working practices into a matter of months. As the ‘new world of work’ moves from being a future issue to being the present for global businesses, we will take stock of how the new cultures of work are embedding.
Building on our work from 2021, CRF will share insights from our latest global research study into the issue, asking:
- What strategies are organisations adopting to implement new ways of working?
- How effective have organisations been in resolving the challenges and compromises inherent to the new working models?
- What impacts do different strategies have on performance, culture and learning across organisations?
Complementing CRF’s research, you will hear fresh perspectives from BTS and also a practical case study from Spotify on their approach and learnings. Importantly, the forum and dinner will enable you to share and learn from your peers, across a range of industries, in an environment built on trust, openness, and free-flowing conversation.
This by invitation-only event is a chance for senior HR leaders in the local region to network and discuss the briefing over dinner.
