Welcome to another thought-provoking issue of The HR Digest, where we unpack the trends and challenges shaping the world of human resources. This month, we’re particularly excited about “HR Drift” (p. 08), which dives into Southwest’s remarkable no-layoff legacy, a shining example of steadfast leadership in turbulent times.
For those grappling with workplace dynamics, “Navigating the Minefield of Workplace Favoritism” (p. 26) offers practical strategies to ensure equity and trust. On the technology front, “Payroll Reimagined: The Top 10 Software and Apps Defining 2025” (p. 122) showcases innovations that are streamlining HR operations.
The HR Digest is an international magazine that sees human resources as a corporate function with the greatest potential. To our readers, it is an intellectual sift, igniting the global conversation about people and ideas that matter most.
The magazine’s goal is to explore and connect the world of human resources to the widest possible audience. International, well-written, and tastefully curated since its launch in 2015, it is a valuable resource for professionals who are passionate about human resources management. The magazine uses human resources function as a springboard to explore topics spanning compensation, employee benefits, outsourcing, recruitment, and workplace culture. Released in January, April, July, and October, The HR Digest includes a mixture of profiles, interviews, critical discussion, and roundtables.
In the years since, The HR Digest has firmly positioned itself as a reputable magazine that champions human resources leadership across the globe.
As one of the most widely-known and influential thinkers on management Peter Drucker put it, culture eats strategy for breakfast. Let’s express our goals, values and beliefs through our organizational culture.
