The Evolving Role of HR in the Future of Work
The world of work is changing. If you think back to just a few years ago, most people worked in one place, with the same coworkers day after day. Today, we're seeing an increase in temporary workers (which has led to new types of jobs), freelancers who work on-demand, and a rise in remote workers (a trend that is likely here to stay). The result? Organizations are becoming more flexible—and there's an opportunity for HR leaders to help lead the change.
