EngageRocket’s research finds that 45% of HR leaders consider “organisational transformation” as their top priority for 2024. Our study reveals that 37% of employees feel their teams lack innovative behaviours, potentially leaving companies vulnerable to macro changes.
These insights suggest a “transformation deficit”, emphasising the need for HR and organisations to mobilise workforces, leverage restructuring and rethink processes to better navigate current and future macro shocks.
2) Gen AI: Addressing the future of work with thoughtful consideration, not hype
Only 5% of HR leaders named AI as their top priority. In EngageRocket’s survey, AI comes in at No.9 among the 10 priorities for HR. There is a sense of organisational hesitation when it comes to AI, which must be overcome in 2024.
3) Employee engagement is a collective responsibility
