HR Chats with Te Radar

As the world becomes more interconnected, borders no longer constrain talent. Traditionally, global mobility meant a company’s efficiency in moving employees to different countries as expatriates or for business trips and assignments. Today, global mobility has evolved to mean a company’s ability to support a global workforce, fulfil workers’ preferences, and win the war on talent.

In this HR Chat, Shannon Karaka will draw on his industry experience and real examples to explain how the concept of working while living and traveling abroad extends well beyond the traditional ‘OE’ or expat assignments, and now forms part of a modern employee development and retention strategy.

Many of the recruitment tools we use today were created during the industrial revolution. Our workforce has changed dramatically since then and the trends that are continuing to shape it give us an insight into some great ways we can futureproof our businesses.

Te Radar chats with Izzy Fenwick, founder of Futureful, New Zealand’s first values-led and skills-based recruitment platform. They discuss why now is the ideal time to consider how we can futureproof our work, along with the trends that are shaping the direction of the workforce. Izzy will also explore the challenges people face when thinking about the future and how Futureful aims to assist businesses in securing their future.

With a recession forecast as likely, university students are entering a workforce where jobs are competitive and not guaranteed. Auckland University of Technology’s Professor Candice Harris has warned students not to expect their “dream job” right away in the current market – and is also concerned about employers halting graduate programmes for short-term cost savings, as this can have longer-term impacts on the company’s employment pipeline.  

Vista is about to open applications for its 2023 graduate and intern programme. Today we talk to Anna Ferguson, Chief People Officer at leading cinema software and data analytics company Vista Group, on why new graduates should consider graduate schemes and internships when starting out in their career, and why continuing to offer graduate schemes is important for businesses’ long-term success.
