Curious about the picture? 📷 Keep reading for a peek into the future of how we work! As we move into 2025, I see HR is evolving faster than ever. Companies are shifting from traditional practices to agile, employee-centric models to stay competitive in a rapidly changing landscape. The key focus areas for HR transformation in 2025 are clear: 1. Skills Over Roles: According to LinkedIn’s Future of Work Report 2023, 45% of companies are rethinking job roles entirely, focusing on skills rather than titles. Upskilling and reskilling employees to adapt to new technologies is critical for long-term success. 2. AI-Powered HR: HR departments are increasingly leveraging AI to streamline recruitment, training, and employee engagement. A recent Gartner study shows that by 2025, over 50% of companies will have automated at least one core HR process using AI, improving efficiency and decision-making. By the way, the image you see with this post was generated using AI. 3. Employee Experience (EX): Employee well-being is no longer a 'nice-to-have'—it’s a business imperative. Deloitte predicts that in 2025, companies that prioritize employe’s experience (EX) will see a 21% increase in profitability. Creating a culture that supports flexibility, mental health, and continuous development is key. 4. Data-Driven Decisions: More than 70% of organizations now rely on data analytics to inform HR strategies, as reported by PwC. Data-driven insights help companies forecast workforce needs, reduce turnover, and create personalized career development plans. The HR landscape is rapidly transforming. Those that embrace these changes will not only attract top talent but will also build stronger, more resilient organizations. Let’s drive this transformation together. What are your plans for 2025?

What do Chief People Officers think about the future of HR? While much of the focus and headlines of Mercer’s 2024 Voice of the CHRO report, authored by Shari Chernack and Jonathan Gordin, is understandably on the challenges and opportunities associated with AI (see Figure), what really stands out for me is the section on how to maximise HR’s influence with the C-suite and board. The results demonstrate that HR is increasingly a strategic partner: ▶️ 56% of CHROs meet with the C-suite every week, ▶️ 51% report higher levels of C-suite engagement than previous years, and; ▶️ 71% report high alignment on HR and people priorities. Data is increasingly key, with 76% of CHROs believing that using data to showcase HR’s impact on business performance will help drive further engagement with the C-suite and board. The report highlights six key actions for CHROs: 1️⃣ Accelerate AI for HR readiness. 2️⃣ Drive AI adoption across the enterprise. 3️⃣ Strengthen C-suite relationships and alignment. 4️⃣ Understand and plan to bolster key skills. 5️⃣ Don’t sleep on employee experience. 6️⃣ Build your HR team for the future. "Build your HR team for the future. Reshape and develop your team to reflect the cross pressures of increasingly complex demands on HR, including an anticipated need for greater technology and analytical expertise on the team, and the lean HR team size in most organizations." An important read for all chief people officers and HR professionals. ▶️ The article is featured in the October edition of Data Driven HR Monthly, where I select and curate the best HR, future of work and people analytics resources of the month.
