Join Michael as they chat with Rebecca Ray of the Conference Board as we discuss the evolving role of the CHRO in responding to crises and black swan events. On the show, we will discuss how: Going forward, CHROs will partner with C-suite colleagues and the board to help shape the company’s voice on social issues.The ability to work closely with, and benefit from, board directors in their human capital management oversight role will be increasingly important.  Strong culture—where employees feel included, valued, respected, and connected to something greater than themselves—will create a competitive advantage in attracting and retaining talent.Technology and analytics will be even more critical in guiding CHROs as they work toward business goals.  CHROs will lead the organization toward a seamless hybrid culture, offering flexibility and upskilling.Through successive waves of “black swan” events, CHROs will need to rethink leadership development. Successful leaders must thrive in virtual and hybrid environments with blended teams.
