Six Seismic Shifts

Trends shaking the HR profession

and reshaping strategic

recruitment

01Welcome to the world of VUCA

The pace and level of change in terms of business

demands and legislative framework has never

been greater.

02The demographics are turning hostile

Despite the availability of people,

organisations are seeing the re-

emergence of talent shortages even in the

early phase of economic recovery.

03The Millennials are rewriting the rules

While Gen. X and baby boomers have

the greatest direct experience Gen.Y

is becoming the driving force for

change.

04The rise of the free agent

Those who describe themselves as self-employed

are a rising share of the workforce. They have

redefined the orthodoxy of lifelong employment to

one of life long employability.

05Technology: Friend or Foe

A key element of the emerging HR paradigm with

it’s convergence into Social Media, entails a more

focused, strategic approach to recruitment rather

than the traditional processes.

06Making HR a Strategic Priority

HR practitioners are being charged to engage

more in strategic business issues of central

importance to success and growth.

The Key Legal issues remain:

• Equality Act 2010 – protected characteristics

• Data Protection

• Disclosures

• Pre-employment checks
