Discussions and data from our “State of the People Profession report” around strategies HR can use to swiftly navigate and accomplish goals
At The People Experience Hub, we've observed that HR has never been more in-demand, under more pressure and more critical to commercial business success. Yet there seems to be one aspect that get's in the way - being busy.

Off the back of our research paper "The State of the People Profession 2024" we found a huge gap between strategic priorities and available resources, and this has culminated in a difficult environment for HR to work effectively in.

"The last couple of years have been tough for many businesses, and this means that budgets are tight. When people are telling us that their biggest skills gaps are in the areas that directly impact upon their access to these budgets - specifically data analysis, stakeholder management, strategy development and commercial awareness - and that when the things that keep them busy are the things they'd be doing less of if they could deliver their people strategies, something has to change." Nick Court, CEO, The People Experience Hub
