By late 2022, Gartner's poll of CFOs found that if inflation continued for a further six months, 40% would turn to cost reduction. With the passage of time, it is likely that personnel budgets are one of the areas that are being carefully examined. Is HR leadership going to be unprepared for this?
In a survey conducted in September of 2022, 25% of HR leaders reported they had started to make changes to their human capital budgets in order to cut down on costs. However, two-thirds of them said they were making either no changes or only minimal changes to their budgets.
In this report Gartner outlines three steps HR leaders can take to protect their budgets. They include: (1) Identify functional priorities, (2) Prioritize talent non-negotiables, and (3) Align on the needs of business leaders proactively.
In this article, Piers Hudson, research leader at Gartner’s HR practice tells Unleash, the global digital media and events business for HR:
“Many business leaders are convinced that employee stress has reduced from the traumatic days of the pandemic – they are entirely mistaken.”
Hudson continues:
“The fact is employees have never truly recovered from the pandemic and continue to suffer from ongoing fatigue. At the same time there has been an economic crisis, political uncertainty and meanwhile employees have had to adapt to the challenges of working in a hybrid environment.”
The consequences of burnout are far-reaching, leading to decreased productivity and a high employee turnover rate. According to Gartner, 68% of employees said that they are less likely to remain in their current positions because of it. This has been dubbed the 'Great Resignation'.

It is widely accepted that employers should strive to make the workplace more meaningful and have a positive effect. This has led to the rising trend of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) initiatives. Interestingly, a surge of 27% was seen in 2020 (PwC Research) in the number of board members and C-suite executives who believed that the pandemic heightened the need for companies to contribute to environmental protection, social progress, and economic development.
An ESG approach that keeps employees top of mind can help reverse this trend by: (1) making ESG inclusive of all stakeholders, (2) investing in initiatives aligned to the organization's strengths, (3) creating internal ambassadors to promote sustainability goals.

According to this post, CHROs need to build stronger relationships with their C-suite peers and the board of directors, as well as become more open about human capital metrics. They must also be able to present the company's people-related matters to both internal and external stakeholders. Finally, it will be essential for them to work closely with board directors and benefit from their oversight role in managing human capital.
The employment of technology and analytics will be essential in helping Chief Human Resource Officers accomplish their business objectives, according to CHRO Voices: Navigating the Future of Work, a report by The Conference Board. By doing so, HR will be able to have a greater influence on the whole organization, such as increased diversity and the utilization of predictive analytics, and focus more on the results of the business.

This study seeks to explore the connection between ESG performance and workforce outlook, an important factor in an environment of uncertain personnel changes and competition for skilled workers. Using MSCI's ESG data, this research provides insights into this relationship.
