What’s next for the future of work? That’s what Matrix Chief Growth Officer Roger Clements asked HR experts during a panel session at the recent CIPD Festival of Work. Here’s what they told him…

“With skills increasingly in short supply and workforce demographics in a state of flux, employers need to rethink radically how they approach HR and recruitment to attract the talent necessary to thrive in the future. A future that will see the emergence of a new work order driven by three primary topics, which I was delighted to discuss with leading HR professionals Dr Sarosh Khan, Acting MD at HSM Advisory, Mel Forbes, MD at APSCO and Simon Reichwald, Chief Progression Officer at Connectr at the CIPD Festival of Work 2024.”

The first place HR departments can start to respond to this new emerging work landscape, according to Khan, is by taking stock of their current situation. “Carry out a skills audit across the workforce,” he said. “This should include finding out also whether managers and senior leaders have the required skills to take the company forward. In terms of retaining key talent, it’s important to establish if you are providing staff with meaningful work that they enjoy, plus whether your working environment is working for you and your people.”
