Context
In today's operating environment, the speed of change is accelerating, and the complexity of the business landscape is growing at an unprecedented rate. Companies in Japan must evolve quickly to remain relevant. In this context, questions that HR leaders face include:
- What macroeconomic factors are influencing how your industry is changing, and what impact do they have on your talent needs?
- How can your HR organization further raise its game to fully contribute to the company's business strategy?
- In what ways can you lead tactical discussions with business leaders about changes needed in your talent base to meet business goals?
- How specifically can you equip your business leaders to transform your organization to lead in its industry?
