New survey predicts HR challenges until 2015

At a recent CIPD international forum meeting, Philip Krinks, UK leader of the Boston Consulting Group’s HR and Organisation practice presented the report, based on a joint research project with the European Association for Personnel Management, on how priorities for HR in Europe will evolve to 2015. In this period, five challenges are likely to be particularly critical for HR: managing talent, managing demographics, becoming a learning organisation, managing work-life balance and managing change and cultural transformation. Only 30% of the respondents – some 1,355 executives from 27 countries in Europe - said that they have begun to tackle all five of the top challenges for the future.
