Ireland has enjoyed an unprecedented period of job growth with unemployment rates at a near historic low for the last few years. While employment growth is slowing the hiring environment remains highly competitive – especially for in-demand roles and AI-related skillsets. Strategic planning will be key for HR leaders to ensure their organisations are set-up for sustained success. This means rethinking the employee value proposition, leveraging data-driven strategies and AI to improve operational efficiencies, and embedding the right skill sets, processes, and structures, to create and enable a culture geared towards sustaining success. In this era of continuous transformation, the HRD agenda is being rewritten.

Join us at the Summit this October for a transformative exploration into the future of HR. As senior HR leaders and aspiring executives, you understand the pivotal role HR plays in navigating the complexities of today’s ever-evolving business landscape. Our summit is centred on simplifying complexity, embracing the paradoxes of modern HR, and shaping resilient strategies for the future.

This year’s Summit will centre its discussions on the theme of 'Sustaining Success' with a focus on the three key areas:

Evolution of Human Resources
Is it time to review traditional HR models? Explore the evolving HR operating model, bridging the gap between future demands and current skills. Learn from leaders utilising AI and people analytics to transform HR while maintaining a human-centred approach, ensuring technology enhances the human experience.

The paradox of personalisation and collectivism
Balance hyper-individualised employee experiences with increasing governance and mounting legislation. Navigate employment rights legislation, fostering engagement and flexibility. Understand how EU focus on collective bargaining aligns with Ireland’s industrial relations, balancing fairness in a personalised work environment.

Shared value and impact
Explore shared value as a strategy for creating business and societal value. Address societal deficits and environmental impacts, redefining leadership beyond organisational boundaries. Discuss cultural shifts and social capital dynamics fostering inclusion, cohesion, and shared purpose in workplaces.

This award-winning event is now in its 24th year. On the day delegates can expect to hear from global industry experts who are leading the way for organisational success. The conference is attended by over 450 HR Directors, CPOs, HR Business Partners and senior HR Professionals.
