We serve the global HR community through our offices located in Delhi, Hong Kong, London, New York, São Paulo and Singapore and have placed HR leaders in over 30 countries.
In the second installment of ‘The Latest HR News’, our host, Stuart Elliott is joined by Friska Wirya and Jig Ramji to discuss a host of topical news articles in business and HR, exploring current trends and the impact they are having on organisations.
In this episode, Stuart and our guests discuss the impact of hybrid working and the prevalent reluctance to commit to returning to the office. They also touch on hot desking and its benefits as well as the difference between Managing and Leading, particularly the toxicity that can materialise from having a ‘bad boss’. Along with talking about more thought-provoking topics for example, as Jig highlights, the impetus for organisations to consider the terminology they use around diversity, as well as the emerging HR trends of 2024, Stuart, Friska and Jig touch on the more light-hearted topic of Christmas parties and the differing perspectives on whether they are worthwhile for building company camaraderie.
