HR Practitioners have had a big year responding to the impact of COVID.

In this session, we will collectively explore the following questions:

1. What wellbeing issues have HR practitioners had to deal with during this period when the line between home and the workplace is erased?
2. What has the corporate response been to ensure the wellbeing of their employees during a particularly stressful period where managers and employees have less physical contact with each other?
3. What opportunities does COVID provide for organisations to enhance the ways that they enable and support their employees to work remotely and productively during this period and for the longer term.

Digital Fishbowl 5 with Mercer – Empathy and Economics

As the COVID-19 pandemic has unfolded and led to an unprecedented economic crisis, employers have had to confront myriad of questions about their people strategy across the entire organization, at every employee level, and for every component of rewards.

In this discussion, we will unpack the following:

1. Why is it critical to get right?
2. What interesting actions are you taking?
3. What are the key implications?

Digital Fishbowl 6 with WTW – Empathy and Economics

As organisations address the longer-term implications of COVID-19, it is imperative to focus on the needs of all stakeholders — from customers to suppliers to shareholders and, specifically, employees to ensure no one is left behind.

This discussion will focus on how the current environment presents opportunities to take bold and sometimes counterintuitive actions and the challenges faced when trying to balance what seems like two competing imperatives.
