Senior Adviseur People Strategy
Independent advisory assignment | HR Strategy, Organisation Design, Data & Technology
The Assignment
An organisation is reviewing how its People Strategy & Analytics capabilities should be positioned, governed and embedded within HR for the years ahead. The assignment is to develop an independent, evidence-based recommendation for a future-ready setup, taking into account changes in AI, digitalisation, HR technology and data-driven decision-making.
