SUSSEX BRANCH ONE DAY CONFERENCE HR: CREATING A PROFESSION FOR THE FUTURE
Just what does future-focused HR look like? What will it take for the HR profession of the future to meet its full potential to champion better work and working lives for the benefit of individuals, businesses, economies and society? Right now, theories about the impact of technology, globalization and demographic changes abound, but no one can predict the future. The world of work is evolving so quickly that new challenges and opportunities are emerging all the time. In this context, more and more organisations are questioning some of the most well-established HR and L&D practices. So what does the future look like for people professionals? What new approaches should we be considering? How do we build healthy, resilient and successful organisations that are fit for the future? The branch committee team is passionate about making sure the CIPD is here for you in Sussex throughout your professional journey, be it facilitating local networking opportunities, organising great value CPD (continuing professional development) or enabling the sharing of knowledge and experience with other people professionals. We are delighted to be able to organise this special Sussex Branch One Day Conference to bring you the very best in thought-leadership on the future of work and in particular exploring what the HR profession for the future looks like. We look forward to seeing you on 16 May 2016 for what promises to be a thought-provoking and thoroughly enjoyable day.
