I came across 2 solid articles I wanted to share: 10 𝙃𝙍 𝙏𝙧𝙚𝙣𝙙𝙨 𝙛𝙤𝙧 2022 – 𝙁𝙧𝙤𝙢 𝘼𝙙𝙖𝙥𝙩𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙩𝙤 𝙏𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙨𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 and 2022 𝙂𝙡𝙤𝙗𝙖𝙡 𝙏𝙖𝙡𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙏𝙧𝙚𝙣𝙙𝙨 -𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙍𝙚𝙞𝙣𝙫𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙤𝙛 𝘾𝙤𝙢𝙥𝙖𝙣𝙮 𝘾𝙪𝙡𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙚 𝘾𝙤𝙢𝙥𝙖𝙣𝙞𝙚𝙨 about how companies are responding to the new way employees want to work.

📈 To summarize the former, they tackled HR embracing all sorts of new (and dated) complexities, HR as activists, HR for the ecosystem, the end of the employee, the metaverse, forgiving technologies, recruiting for DE&I, staff empathy, life coaching, and HR function splits (operations, strategy/advice and people success).

📉To summarize the latter, they are tackling what they call a watershed moment for company culture. Because of the pandemic, employees are rethinking their priorities and their relationships with employers. They’re seeking flexible work arrangements and more work-life balance. They want to work for employers who value their physical and emotional well-being. And they’re ready to walk away from those who don’t. Companies are also thinking about how their cultures can evolve with employees. In order to attract, retain, and grow great talent, companies need to fine-tune — or overhaul — their culture to meet the expectations of professionals to be seen as human beings first. Based on conversations with two dozen talent leaders from around the world and proprietary LinkedIn data, Global Talent Trends 2022 explores how flexible work, employee well-being, and the Great Reshuffle are changing company culture.

Happy Sunday!
