In the current era, with increased digitalisation and a focus on people analytics and evidence-based practice, traditional HR operating models may no longer be effective in delivering the business strategy. Has the time finally come to abandon the Ulrich model?

In this session we are joined by two well known experts in the areas of the future of HRM and People Analytics to discuss a new business-driven HR operating model for the digital era - this is dubbed BD:HR.

The BD:HR operating model is specifically designed to help HR functions use data more effectively to deliver the strategic capabilities required by Executive Teams rather than the tactical workforce capabilities so frequently delivered by many HR functions today.
