CakeHR’s A-Z HR Gurus for Q2 2018: Current Experts in Human Resources [Infographic]
I’m sure you’ll all agree that 2018 has seen exciting developments take place in the Human Resources sector.
Companies across the globe continue the search to transform their workforce with alternative, innovative methods and this year it’s clear that leaders are taking a closer look at the ‘talent experience’ as an attraction and retention strategy.
Data from research indicates that the strategy to focus on the talent experience is a priority for 2018 and employers rightfully believe that technology will be a crucial factor in its success, with 51 per cent of businesses increasing their investments in tech to improve the talent experience and 46 per cent increasing tech investments to boost the candidate experience.
But what has that got to do with our HR Guru lists?
Well, we believe that our lists of HR Gurus will collectively lead you to the right resources and guidance needed to keep up to date with the latest trends in HR, as you can see and hear for yourself how they are implementing these strategies to support their own organizations.
Unlike our previous A-Z lists, there is no specific theme to be identified within our HR Gurus this quarter by way of where they are located or what they specialize in.
In fact, our experts in human resources in Q2 2018 can be found in Latvia, Portugal, Netherlands, Croatia, Denmark, China, US and the UK and are sharing the latest HR trends in organizational development, change management, coaching and leadership nurturing and use of new HR technology such as Blockchain and AI – all of which will contribute to the whole talent experience.
These HR Gurus are considered experts in the field of Human Resources for good reason! Inclusive of transformational experts, professors researching sustainable ways to achieve a competitive advantage, blockchain enthusiasts looking at the implications of introducing blockchain to HR and big data fanatics who are making improvements through system evolution and analytical data to give fact-based advisory and insights into business challenges… There’s much to learn from our list of HR Gurus this quarter.
Creating a positive work environment should always be a goal, but as the economy continues to improve and as the labor market continues to put candidates squarely in the driver’s seat, it’s more important than ever for employers to hold up their end of the bargain
As always, we have included links to our HR Gurus LinkedIn profiles so you can see which articles they are liking, publications they are reading, companies they are inspired by and insights they are sharing.
You may even be lucky enough to see some of these influencers as key speakers at global HR events!
So whilst there’s no doubt that HR is evolving rapidly and technology is playing a critical role in the current talent experience strategy, the human element is just as important (actually, more so) which is why having access to the advice and guidance of our HR Gurus will allow you to follow their journeys during these ground-breaking times.
