To complement our thought piece on What to expect in employment law in 2023, this thought piece outlines what we predict will be the areas for specific focus and what will be high on the agenda for HR leaders during 2023. Having people orientation as a priority is integral to ensure a whole, institutional approach to enabling people sustainability, specifically contextualised against external drivers and the current landscape. These areas include recruitment and talent management, developing internal competencies, strategic resourcing, and organisation design. This is not a definitive list, and we recognise your priorities will be shaped by your institutional context, your strategies and aims, and staffing profile.
UK Universities are recommended to consider these influences and assess the implications.
SUMS is a membership-based higher education consultancy, a registered charity and not-for-profit organisation that provides expert consulting to universities across all professional service areas. Here, Emma Ogden, SUMS Consultant, shares insight on what the top priorities may be for HR leaders in 2023.
