What Future for HR – surviving in a fast changing workplace

11 Mar 2026 | 12PM | Free | Online

What is your true worth and are you making the most of it?

From AI and automation to skills led workplaces and empowered line managers, there’s a lot of development and change within HR. As administration becomes less of a chore and compliance is designed into people systems the question arises: what is HR now for? Without a secure place at the C-suite level and with bedrock activities becoming technology led are Chief HR Officers and their like doomed? Would organisations actually work more effectively and efficiently without what could just be seen as pointless middle management? Or is HR the glue that sticks everything together – and if so should it be more than this?

In this webinar we survey the current status of HR – its impact, its influence, its integrity – and ask whether the time has come to redefine the function. HR could move towards technology or establish itself as the source of increased productivity and efficiency. It could be a purely strategic entity, ensuring what people do is aligned to the direction of the business. Would this be enough?

Or are we losing sight of the value of being human in delivering HR? Is HR’s significant contribution to organisations being under appreciated and simply needs to be given a better press? Is it time for HR to redefine itself in order to gain credibility within the organisations it serves – or even to survive?

Join this webinar to explore both sides of the argument and to ensure that your work in HR is always positive and fully appreciated.
