IHRP Playbooks

The IHRP Playbooks will be a one-stop resource packed with use cases and toolkits especially for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) going through business transformation.


“The Playbook is useful for all Food & Beverage companies who need to take stock of where they are. I have had the chance to harness my team’s strengths by improving my company’s Employer Value Proposition. It is not easy but it is necessary. This Playbook is an eye-opener and will help us to re-look at our Human Capital.”

Who is it for?

The IHRP Playbook is targeted at SMEs with smaller HR teams or office administrators that may not have the expertise and resources available to larger organisations. The IHRP Playbook is written in a laymen, non-technical language with each “Play” illustrated with local use cases from the sector.

Overcoming your “last mile” business challenges

IHRP Playbooks help businesses diagnose key business themes and workforce challenges in their organisation and recommend a series of human resource “plays” to address them.

“I find this playbook simple and helpful for anyone in the food and beverage industry to understand whether for HR professionals, managers or business owners. We are working in a new normal world, working with the constant need to optimise manpower and working towards digitalization. This playbook will help businesses think and seek out answers to some manpower and market challenges.”
