Deloitte's 2021 Global Human Capital Trends report explores the shift from "survive to thrive" through the lens of five key trends: (1) designing work for well-being; (2) capitalising on worker agency and choice as the means to drive learning, adaptability, and impact; (3) creating teams and superteams that use technology to enhance human ways of working; (4) developing and acting on forward-looking insights using real-time data to harness workforce potential; and (5) shifting HR's role from standardising and enforcing workforce policies to a new responsibility of re-architecting work. The pandemic highlighted the need for flexible, adaptive approaches as circumstances shifted unpredictably. The report highlights that organisations that use disruption as an opportunity to embody human qualities will enable them to thrive through disruption.
