Top 5 Trends Expected To Drive HR In 2024

 

 

 

by Bjorn Reynolds

 

A profound transformation in human resources is underway, and it’s being driven by employees’ changing expectations and rapid technological advancements like AI. These factors will redefine how companies operate and connect with their workforce. As we explore the dynamic forces shaping HR practices, here are five key trends set to reshape the landscape.

Trend 1: Integrating AI In Business

If 2023 wasn’t the year of AI, 2024 definitely will be. Integrating new tools and projects into operations comes with a lot of enthusiasm, but it can also lead to several challenges. Businesses that rush to implement technologies without a strategic plan risk diving in without understanding the expected outcomes. This leaves the potential for suboptimal results initially, which could dampen the enthusiasm for new ways of working.

You must adopt a “crawl, walk, run” approach and view AI as a means to enhance business processes, improve decision-making and drive innovation. A strong change management plan is critical to successful integration, so your leaders must start with thoughtful adoption and a clear vision of how it can advance company goals.

By setting sound objectives for AI use, you can better guarantee your investment is purposeful and contributes to the overall business strategy. Start small, understand the technology and gradually scale up as you gain confidence and clarity about how AI can benefit your business. (more…)

By Courtney Connley

 

When it comes to career advancement, “it’s not always what you know, but who you know,” might be trite, but it’s true. Relationships are key to personal and professional growth.

 

In fact, more than 80% of women at and above management level said they’ve used networking relationships to join a board, break into the C-Suite, or accept a new job with better pay, according to a 2023 networking study conducted by Chief and intelligence firm Morning Consult

At the first-ever ChiefX conference, New York Times bestselling author, psychologist, and professor Dr. Marisa Franco explained how relationships are essential to everything we do. Quoting psychotherapist Esther Perel, she said, “The quality of our relationships determines the quality of our lives.”

“The most pronounced difference between people who are very unhappy and very happy is their level of connectedness,” said the author of Platonic: How the Science of Attachment Can Help You Make — and Keep — Friends. But as a leading expert in human connection, Dr. Franco also admitted that building solid connections as an adult is sometimes easier said than done. In her conversation with ChiefX attendees, Dr. Franco discussed not only the value of strong relationships, but the three things leaders can do to build them in their career. (more…)
