This is your HR News Flash, your briefing on talent management and the world of work from HRCI. The coronavirus pandemic created disruption as well as provided the opportunity to review, revise and adapt HR practices. HR and their organizations are looking for ways to re-engage, re-train and retain their current workforce. Here is how to implement improved HR strategies and techniques. First, determine what skills and practices are needed. Adopting agile HR processes supports organizations while navigating through any ambiguities within their work environment. One way is to create an inclusive and diverse culture, where team members feel supported, empowered and confident. Second, modernize your HR practices. Applying modern HR practices is significantly different from legacy HR practices. Strive to maintain your organization on the cutting edge of best practices and technology. Integrate both  HR and business practices to strengthen credibility, invoke trust and maintain customer loyalty. Lastly, emphasize organization mission and values. By modernizing HR practices, you create policies and procedures that bind together the workforce and the community they serve. Merge company values that are reflective of your work culture.  For example, the value of “doing the right thing” can be woven into your diversity and inclusion programs and initiatives.
