Activities
Throughout its operations, HR LAB focuses on the following activities:
- Sharing “best HR practices” of member (and non-member) organisations
- Keynotes by experts in a certain HR subfield or by C-level executives
- Academic research
In our desire to help drive reform in people management, we make sure to always take an innovative approach to whatever is on the table.
HR LAB organises eight activities during a working year (September – June) and ends every working year with a 2-day seminar in June.
