Cultivating Organizational Resilience in an Era of Workforce Transformation

Organizational resilience is about springing back from adversity, but perhaps even more importantly, it’s also about springing forward into a new reality. The rapid pace of change calls HR leaders to reimagine a more agile and responsive global HR model to better position the business to navigate uncertainties.

Jacinta Hennessey and special guests Kathy Erdmann and Bernard Aller discuss how HR leaders can build a resilient, flexible and sustainable game plan by focusing on adaptation, agility and responsiveness.

In this session we discuss:

  • Shifting from efficiency to adaptability
  • Reimagining work design
  • Embedding agility in your HR model
  • Charting a course from responsive to resilient


As we look ahead to brighter times, HR leaders are central to how companies are reimagining their practices to cultivate organizational resilience and drive value.  Elevate HR and transform your business with resilient and adaptable solutions designed to fit the unique needs of your global organization.
