Unleash Your Curiosity UNLEASH’S network of HR leaders and influencers share their biggest learnings of 2020 — lessons that will undoubtedly make them, and their employees, stronger in 2021!

2020 has been tough — it’s been a rollercoaster year filled with change and uncertainty both in our personal and professional lives. Businesses, employees, and governments have had to adapt at break-neck speed to ensure that people and companies stayed afloat.

As much as it’s been difficult, the pandemic has also given us the chance to take stock, re-calibrate, problem-solve, and learn from the challenges we’ve faced.

On an even more positive note, COVID-19 has resurfaced very important conversations around mental wellbeing, the future of work, and diversity and inclusion.

The rise of remote working and the emergence of new tech solutions to support employees outside of the office have revolutionized the world of work and it goes without saying that the human resources industry has done an outstanding job adapting to an ever-changing situation.

As a result, work became more people-centric, human resources teams came into the spotlight, and many of the changes that took place in 2020 will undoubtedly shape the world of work for generations to come.

With this in mind, here is some inspiration from UNLEASH’s nearest and dearest — leaders and game-changers in the HR field — who’ve very kindly shared some of the lessons learned over the past twelve months.

We hope this invaluable insight will help shape your human resources strategy in the year ahead and play a crucial role in taking your organization and its people to the next level.

Let’s take everything we’ve learned over the past year and leverage it to create kinder, more productive and efficient teams and companies.

We hope you enjoy the video — and here’s to a happier, more flexible, diverse, tolerant, informed, innovative, and healthy workforce!
