Abstract

The changes on the market will have far-reaching consequences for carriers. The shift in roles and skills within the organization represents one of the greatest challenges. HR is itself caught up in a transformation process, but it is simultaneously a driver of transformation in the company.

A carefully considered and holistic talent strategy is the key to the solution.
