Performance reviews are vital for hybrid workplaces and teams, providing a formal way to evaluate performance, set goals, give feedback, and align expectations. In the hybrid setting, where employees may work remotely or have flexible schedules, monitoring productivity and progress can be challenging. 

Diversity and inclusion (D&I) are increasingly recognised as critical factors for enhancing business performance. In a comprehensive survey conducted by Deloitte for its 2017 Global Human Capital Trends report¹, two-thirds of the 10,000 leaders surveyed expressed the importance of D&I to their organisations.

High levels of equality, diversity, and inclusion have been proven to have numerous positive impacts on talent and HR management [1]. Organisations that embrace diversity and foster an inclusive culture experience greater innovation, productivity, and performance. Moreover, they enjoy enhanced talent recruitment and retention rates, as diverse individuals are attracted to organisations that value their contributions and create a sense of belonging.

However, with an increase in the number of bad hires and early attrition rates, recruiters cannot rely solely on the flawed traditional hiring approach. The incompetence of bad hires can cost an organisation in many different ways. One of the greatest threats is the desire or immediate need to fill the employment position.

Today, different types of pre-employment assessments have changed how hiring is conducted globally. Human Resource Managers have traditionally used telephonic and face-to-face interviews to fill employment positions.

With the surging exposure and familiarisation of digital technologies in every corner of the world, consumers today can instantly access virtually unlimited information anytime. That immediate convenience has radically changed people's acquisition of new knowledge. This gives rise to a recently popular concept that provides learners with bespoke and self-paced learning—on-demand training (ODT).

Skill gaps appear when your employees lack the skills needed to achieve a specific goal, preventing them from succeeding. In other words, the term stands for when the employees cannot fulfil the needs/requirements of their employers because they don’t have the right knowledge, skills, or abilities.

If you think organisations that embrace the "work from anywhere" arrangement are progressive enough, think again!

While deciding whether to employ a four-day work model or a completely virtual or hybrid workforce will give those involved a massive headache, this could be the key to unlocking productivity that we have never imagined before.
