The latest HR on the Offensive podcast looks at a recent HR Magazine article that questioned whether employees and HR teams are suffering a tech overload because of the number of systems they are using.

Can you have too much HR tech?

We're excited to launch our new campaign: Becoming Skills-Powered. In this episode of the "HR on the Offensive" podcast, Chris is joined by LACE team members Pavan Bilkhoo, Romy Hobson, and Gemma Ryall to talk about the campaign's goals and the importance of skills-based organisations.

These organisations look beyond job titles to recognise employees for their wide range of skills from different experiences and personal lives. This approach changes how we think about talent and work, focusing on matching the right people to the right tasks to improve flexibility and efficiency.

This approach brings flexibility, cost savings, and the ability to quickly adapt to business changes. For employees, it offers clear career paths, opportunities to learn new skills, and more chances to move up within the organisation.

Our campaign aims to simplify the information about skills-based organisations and break it down into practical steps. This will help organisations keep up with rapid changes and tackle skill shortages by using internal talent instead of always hiring from outside.
