  • OpenUp HR Summit Day 1

    Welcome to the first session of the OpenUp HR Summit. In this session, our panel discusses the critical challenges and solutions for mental well-being in hybrid and remote workplaces. Join host Emma, #psychologist at OpenUp, along with panellists Marieke Pepers, CHRO at Nmbrs, and Selina van Panhuys, Head of Product at OpenUp, as they explore key topics such as preventing digital #burnout, the importance of maintaining trust and transparency in #remote teams, and how well-being drives innovation and success.

    Key Learnings and Practical #hr Takeaways:

    1️⃣ Trust over visibility

    In remote work, trust your employees to deliver results without micromanaging. Visible work doesn't always mean productive work – it's the impact that matters.

    2️⃣ Purpose-driven connection

    In remote teams, it’s crucial to help each other connect to the bigger mission. Open communication, like "open mic" sessions, keeps everyone focused on the shared goals.

    3️⃣ Structured flexibility

    A 4-day work week can boost productivity and work-life balance, showing that less can truly be more when done right.

    We hope you enjoyed this OpenUp HR Summit session. We’re happy to receive your feedback, and we invite you to check out the other sessions from the HR Summit on our YouTube channel for more valuable insights on workplace well-being.

    👉 Episode #3 with Anna Brandt, Co-founder of Invested and Global Talent Leader.

    👉 Key Learnings and Practical Takeaways

    1️⃣ Evolution of HR Tech

    Anna discusses how HR technology has evolved from basic tools to advanced systems that support global talent acquisition and workforce planning. Technologies like LinkedIn have revolutionised the recruitment process by providing access to a global talent pool and enhancing employer branding.

    The integration of technology in recruitment processes has transformed how companies attract and retain talent, making the process more efficient and effective.

    2️⃣ Addressing Skill Shortages and Improving Productivity

    By automating repetitive tasks, HR professionals can focus on more strategic activities that add value to the organisation. Technology helps in workforce planning and addresses skill shortages by identifying necessary skills and supporting skill mapping for efficient L&D programs.

    Advanced tech solutions streamline processes for different industries, allowing for better management of talent and resources, ultimately improving overall productivity.

    3️⃣ Balancing Tech Innovation and Human Connection

    As technology advances and enables new types of workplaces, often hybrid or fully remote, the immediate need for human interaction decreases. However, maintaining meaningful human interactions remains crucial. Leaders must ensure that technology enhances rather than replaces the human element in the workplace.

    Leaders play a vital role in guiding employees through technological changes, reducing anxiety and ensuring smooth transitions by providing clear context and support.

    4️⃣ Ethical Governance in AI Implementation

    Establishing a strict moral compass and open dialogue within organisations is essential for ethical AI implementation. Organisations must be transparent and responsible in their use of technology.

    Creating cross-functional committees to assess and guide AI usage can help mitigate potential risks and ensure ethical adoption of technology.
