Four strategic priorities to unlock HR leaders’ potential in 2025
- A clear view of the changing priorities and challenges faced by CHROs will enable other members of the C-suite to collaborate more effectively and leverage HR’s potential to achieve business objectives.
- CHROs are prioritising more visualisations and building infrastructure like data lakes to support deeper analytics and heavily focused on applying technology to clean up and collect data.
- Executives are focused on managing growth and seeking ways to scale the HR function in tandem with business expansion.
- Succession planning, often integrated with performance management and talent assessment for the leadership pipeline, was frequently a top priority but a weak process.
- EVPs are crucial for high-growth organisations as they communicate the organisation’s story to current employees and potential candidates.
- To maximise their impact, CHROs must leverage advanced HR technology, foster a data-driven approach and cultivate a culture of innovation and adaptability.
- CHROs can transform HR into a powerful driver of organisational success.
- The CHROs aim to foster a deeper appreciation for the transformative power of HR and to encourage a more integrated, data-driven approach to people management that aligns with the overall business strategy.
- Several CHROs noted that organisational design was either neglected or poorly managed by leaders without proper governance.

updates: interviewer said my reading tastes were pretentious, problem employee lashed out at me, and more
- A former job candidate seeks advice on feedback she received from an interviewer who sent her a list of everything she did wrong and found her reading tastes 'pretentious'. She eventually found work in an industry she hadn’t previously considered and where her writing skills could flourish. As part of this job, she recently interviewed a celebrity who complimented her on her passion for writing.
- An employee whose supervisor found challenging updates on a difficult team member, who had since been laid off, reflected that Alison Green's advice at the time had in fact been correct. However, she says she feels she provided lots of coaching to the employee, noting, 'The loads of coaching didn’t help enough'.
- Early this year, an individual wrote in seeking advice on how to tell demanding clients about her family crisis, explaining these clients' needs often led to them sharing personal details and looking to lean on her more than was healthy. While the family crisis did not improve, Alison Green's advice about how to deal with these workload challenges was very effective. The client explained that many clients were understanding, while others relaxed when she said they were away due to a family emergency.
- An individual wrote in earlier this year concerned that she and her family were at risk due to extended family vacationing without COVID-19 vaccine protections. The writer was concerned about whether the fact they had this information through their job meant they could take extra precautions around these family members. Ultimately, she decided to avoid discussions which might inadvertently show the extent of what she knew, with good results.
