Our first-ever HR Pulse Report has been launched! This project is aimed at uncovering the latest trends and insights shaping the future of HR. The final report will be published in September 2024 and will cover key issues and emerging themes that are top-of-mind for HR leaders and practitioners today -- employee engagement, HR tech, legislative compliance and more. This data will be invaluable to HR teams to use and leverage for strategic HR planning purposes. We invite organizations of ALL sizes and industries to participate. Participating involves completing a questionnaire (it will take 5-10 minutes to complete) and the participants will receive the raw data AND will be the first to receive the published report. To add more incentive, we are doing several draws for participants to win tickets to upcoming HR events, swag bags and much more. What does "much more" mean? Well... we'll be announcing that in the coming weeks. The deadline to participate in this invaluable research project is June 30, 2024. For more information, please read the blog post at https://lnkd.in/gE_MBpHB. 🙏 🙏 Special thanks to Laura Lillie Goodridge for lending a helping hand and to a group of vendors who have been overly generous with your support this year: Teamtailor, Orchard Benefits, Deel and AtmanCo. #HR #Leadership #Report #Data #HRStrategy
