Digital HR Leaders with David Green

The Role of HR in Driving Successful Org Design with Julie Digby, Global Integration and Transformation Leader at Mars


Listen Later

The role HR plays in a successful business transformation is significant and increasingly important. On this week’s podcast, we are joined by Julie Digby who has led several successful integrations and transformations at Mars, including a two-year project which saw a merger of Mars and Wrigley. What struck me most from our conversation is the key triumvirate Mars forms for successful transformation comprised of finance, HR, and the president of the Mars business involved.

In our conversation, Julie and I discuss:

  • How HR is organised and works with the business in Mars
  • The specific role HR plays in transformation projects, particularly in relation to organisational design, culture and change management
  • The role that technology and data plays in supporting, enabling and speeding up transformation work
  • The skills that HR needs to develop as it becomes a more strategic function within the business
  • And finally, as we do with all our guests on the show, we ponder what the role of HR will be in 2025

This episode is a must listen for anyone in HR involved in transformation change and business partnering.
