PageUp has a long history of commitment to thought leadership in talent management, publishing materials and contributing to thought practices in HR across the globe. PageUp integrates thought leadership and market feedback to inform technology development that aligns to the future of work.
The PageUp Talent Lab was formed in mid 2015. Created as a platform to encourage discourse and debate among HR and business executives on the big workplace challenges of the present and future, Talent Lab “puts HR under the microscope” with a view to elevating HR’s contribution and voice in critical business issues.
Talent Lab brings together HR executives, industry thought leaders, business analysts and subject matter experts to get to the heart of the many workforce challenges facing business. An initiative of PageUp Global Research, Talent Lab was conceived as an opportunity to contribute innovative thinking and help HR and business leaders understand what it takes to unleash talent and get the business results necessary to succeed.
A new Talent Lab topic is debated by Talent Lab contributors periodically and the outcomes published on www.pageuptalentlab.com for sharing and broader discussion.
