Our visionary CEO, Abiodun Atobatele, took the stage at this year's HR Expo Africa to deliver a masterclass on a topic crucial to the modern workplace: The Intersection of Ethics, Wellbeing, and Technology: Creating Human-Centric Workplaces. His message resonated powerfully: a truly thriving work environment should be a trifecta of: Ethical Fairness: Everyone deserves to feel treated with respect and have a fair shot at success. Prioritized Wellbeing: Your work shouldn't drain you; it should support a healthy and balanced life. Empowering Technology: Cool tech tools aren't just a perk – they should streamline your work and make it more fulfilling. Take NotchHR, for example, the best HR software for companies in Africa. This platform offers a suite of features designed to empower both employees and HR professionals. #NotchHR #HREA2024

Happy #InternationalHRDay 2024 to all my fellow HR peeps! 🎉 This year's theme, "Shaping the New Future," highlights the transformative power of HR in our evolving world. Focusing on four key sub-trends: ✅ Championing ethical tech and AI integration ✅ Redefined future workplaces ✅ Excellence in people leadership ✅ Continuous investment in skills and leadership Why is it important? It recognizes the vital role HR plays in driving organizational success and fostering positive workplace cultures. For instance, companies that invest in employee development see a 24% higher profit margin. Fun fact: By 2025, 75% of the workforce will be millennials, emphasizing the need for forward-thinking HR practices. In #Africa, the state of #HR is both growing and evolving. However, we must intensify our efforts to reshape the perception of HR from an administrative role to a strategic one! This involves applying best practices, embracing forward-thinking strategies, enabling professional certification for practitioners, and reviewing wages for HR professionals. For example, #Europe tops globally in the HR index while #SubSaharanAfrica countries perform worse then the global average! #WEF We've grown, yes, we can grow better/faster, definitely! By focusing on these key areas, we can drive substantial growth and development in HR across Africa. Join me in celebrating and shaping the future of work! Share your thoughts and let's drive change together. As we navigate these areas, remember the words of Peter Drucker: "The best way to predict the future is to create it."

Last week Thursday, we welcomed our Global CEO, David Plink, to the Top Employers HR Red Table 2024 event, joined by our local clients and stakeholders from the Top Employers Institute. Under the theme of "Navigating a Dynamic Workforce", we explored the evolving nature of the South African workforce and how employers can adapt their people practices staying ahead while keeping employees engaged. Our panellists shared their strategies for mitigating workforce challenges and practical ways to boost overall organisational success. David Plink, affectionately known as “Mr HR,” unpacked the World of Work Trends 2024 report, highlighting the following: 1️⃣ Organisations that help employees connect their sense of purpose with that of the organisation enjoy higher engagement, revenue growth, and profitability. 2️⃣ The need for human-to-human connection remains crucial. The workplace has traditionally been a hub for social interaction, which AI could potentially disrupt without careful management. 3️⃣ Employees who feel genuinely heard by their organisation are more likely to be engaged. We also shared her insights on neurodiversity, emphasising that people experience the world in diverse ways.
