The Future of HR Programme
Our programme aims to shape the debate in the UK about the future of people management. The Work Foundation is uniquely positioned to do so based on the insights gained from our extensive research, consultancy and networking.
In these challenging times the call for effective people management has never been louder. HR managers are amongst those on the frontline when it comes to maintaining that delicate employer/employee relationship - the so-called psychological contract or deal - and delivering high performance in a period where potential redundancies and other belt-tightening measures may be perceived as enduring issues.
And yetwhat part HR managers may take in nurturing employer/employee relationships through tough times has never been more contentious.
The Future of HR is a major two-year research project , which aims to demonstrate what really works in maintaining this crucial relationship.
