The Future of HR Miniseries

The Future of HR with Rodney Evans and Sam Spurlin — a miniseries from The Ready.

A more resilient future of work is possible if we realize the future of HR first. That’s what this miniseries is about: HR’s readiness to evolve and unleash org-wide innovation; why the function is hamstrung by never-ending to-dos; and how the Future of HR is more about invigorating new ways of working and less about getting trapped in endless planning cycles.
