2:30 PM CASE STUDY: FROM EFFICIENCY TO RESILIENCE: A ROADMAP TO TRULY GLOBAL HR

Global HR is at a crossroads. Organisations dream of seamless, end-to-end processes, but reality is messy, fragmented systems. Local laws, and cultural differences stand in the way. For long, the answer was efficiency. But optimizing for a perfect, predictable world has created fragile systems that break under pressure. The true breakthrough isn't just new technology, it's a new mindset.

In this session, we explore how to move beyond chasing efficiency and instead architect a system that is not only compliant and cost-effective, but truly future-ready. Join us to discover how to build HR processes that are designed to thrive in a world of constant change.

• Achieve scalability by building a strong 'Global Core' that serves as a stable foundation for growth.

• Achieve compliance by architecting a 'Global by Default, Local by Exception' model

• Achieve efficiency by using intelligent automation to build operational resilience

• Achieve transformation by embedding a culture of resilience that empowers your team and makes change stick
