A new series of videos has been launched to provide a deeper dive into the three core themes of our One Big Thing Campaign; hybrid working, employee value proposition (EVP) and talent. As part of this piece of research, we asked CPOs from a range of industries what their One Big Thing is that keeps them up at night.
In this podcast episode, host Chris is joined by two LACErs Tim Ringo and Chris Horton to discuss where we are with regard to these topics at this point in time. It is also discussed how there is a difference in HR priorities around the world. Take a moment to listen to our podcast now to find out how these challenges have evolved and what’s next in this space.

Organisations need to stop seeing EVP as a ‘product’ but, instead, as a ‘living thing’ that is constantly evolving
