Are we outsourcing HR too much… or just enough? HR outsourcing is booming, but what does that really mean for the profession? In this episode, I’m breaking down the real impact of outsourcing, consulting, and fractional HR. What’s driving the trend, the risks and rewards, and where in-house HR teams must hold their ground.

If you want to tackle this shift strategically, without losing sight of your HR team’s value, this one’s for you. What’s your take? Has your organisation embraced HR outsourcing, or are you keeping it in-house? Let’s chat. Connect with us on LinkedIn and share your thoughts.
