The future arrived in a hurry. Over the last five years, a significant trend towards the digitalisation of HR processes was emerging. It was understandable, reflective of people’s behaviour, happening at a pace most organisations understood and dealt with.
Then the pandemic hit and with it, almost overnight, compulsory remote working. Some employees loved it: they discovered they were as productive, they were richer, they were happier. Others struggled with a lack of tools, accessibility and communication with their employer and co-workers as not every organisation had the HR and technology infrastructure to cope.
In this webinar, produced in partnership with SAP, we discuss how the picture has changed so rapidly and so profoundly. We hear the experiences of Sue Yell, HR director at Warburtons the largest bakery brand in the UK, illustrating the highs and the learnings of the process. And we learn how best to lead – and convince – organisations in this transformation. Standing still is no longer an option.
