I came across an interesting model that took into account the internal and external factors that influence what we do in Human Resources (HR). That’s particularly relevant during these times (with the health pandemic, global change and uncertainty.) Here’s the problem: I think the model might be fake! Is this even possible? You tell me… 

There is little doubt that the role of Human Resources (HR) is evolving massively right now with advancements in technology and digital tools, the transition to hybrid working, and the availability of people analytics.

What we do with behavioural science is very simple. We provide models for helping people to build better relationships with others, learn about their strengths and areas for development, and ultimately use that information to become more productive and fulfilled.

The Human Resource (HR) profession led an enormous amount of change over the past two years since the onset of Covid-19. There have been major shifts in the ways of working, digital transformation, a transition to the future of work, and much more. The focus on managing change and transformation across a business is not letting up in 2022.

The Human Resource (HR) profession faced a number of challenges over the past two years since the onset of Covid-19. While many of those ups-and-downs were unexpected, new data is highlighting the trends, priorities and expected challenges of 2022. With this insight, HR (and related fields) can take action now. 

There's occasionally some confusion about what the difference is between Human Resources (HR), Organisational Development (OD) and Learning & Development (L&D). All three are concerned with people, but each has a slightly different traditional core focus.

Many businesses have realised that remote work is a viable option for their teams, and they are now focusing on employee engagement, as well as finding new meaning in work. Those who embrace the changes coming their way will be the ones to lead the new world of work. (Free e-book at the end of this article.)

This article summarises the findings of “Project Aristotle”, in which Google researchers studied what made a team effective at Google. The researchers found that “what really mattered was less about who was on the team, and more about how the team worked together.”
