"Being Human is now at the Centre"

The world has changed irrevocably and a new way of life and work in every aspect is now a reality. This requires HR to review its priorities and place renewed emphasis on being human and building effective human systems and human organisations.

The old ways of "doing HR" will no longer be relevant and it is time for HR to reimagine itself in a post-Covid world. This new role will demand a "new style" of HR professional. That is exactly what Paul Norman and sixteen HR leaders are addressing in HR: The New Agenda
