As organizations evolved after each crisis, HR Leaders were increasingly depended upon to lead the way on crisis response.

During this pandemic, the topmost priority was employees’ safety and wellness. HR leaders had to dispense crucial strategies and decisions on close monitoring and prevention of the infection, contingency plans and resource allocations. Remote Work strategies became crucial and HR was looked upon for advice on employee engagement and increasing morale during tough times. As some countries are now lifting the lockdown and many businesses will commence operating in the newly unfolding environment, HR will be thrust into the epicentre of business.
