EDITOR’S NOTE

A BUSINESS IS ONLY AS GOOD AS ITS PEOPLE

The past few years have proven how valuable it is to retain and hire top talent. The best performers look to companies that celebrate diversity, provide flexibility, support career development, and are dedicated to progressing their people practices. A good company is considered one which has a work environment that employees enjoy coming into, where they feel like their contributions are being valued, and their efforts are being driven towards a greater purpose.

As a result, for HR professionals, some of the biggest challenges lie in ensuring the employee experience remains seamless in the new ways of working; enabling access to people platforms for learning, performance, and careers; and essentially, over investing in the employee experience.

All of this requires strong HR leadership – backed by an ecosystem of partners that unlocks access to data, insights, content, and communication that otherwise would not have been possible.

Cue the longstanding HR Vendors of the Year research. The region’s most prestigious platform for honouring HR partners and solution providers has returned for its 17th year to showcase the greatest contributors to the HR support ecosystem.

Whether you’re looking for solution providers to aid you with recruitment, training, C&B, coaching, staff management, HR management, corporate culture, corporate wellbeing, leadership, or anything in between, this is the annual special edition to bookmark for year-round decisionmaking. We have also provided you contact details on the winners and finalists to ease your process of getting in touch.

To complete the headline we started this letter with, a business is only as good as its people, and a people strategy is only as good as the calibre of its co-creators. Every CHRO will continue to rely on prolific solution providers to bring ideas and policies to life.

As this is our final e-magazine for 2022, we hope you take some time out for yourself to recharge this year-end. The upcoming festive season is the perfect time to surround yourself with all things wonderful, be it spending time with your loved ones, wrapping up your most treasured project at work, or treating yourself to a new hobby! We wish you the best of health, happiness, and success in 2023.

Enjoy the read.
