The world of work is evolving at pace, driven by social, economic and technological changes. The people profession has a unique role to play in ensuring the future of work is good for people, as well as business, and for society. This is a great opportunity to position our profession more than ever at the heart of business thinking and to be led by a strong and positive purpose. As the professional body, the CIPD wants to work with you to shape this future, to understand the capabilities and skills we will need to develop, and the positioning of our profession for the long term. This is a key part of our commitment to prepare you for the journey ahead.

The People Profession 2030
Scoping interviews Early in 2020 we conducted scoping interviews with senior leaders in the people profession exploring how: professional practice may change; organisations may need to adapt; new capabilities may need to be built. These findings (and others) will be explored further with people professionals during the next phase – the Hackathon.
Hackathon Using this prior research as a springboard, over eight days from 10-20 August 2020 people professionals will share ideas and discuss the future of the profession with peers and colleagues from all over the world. Together, they'll start to identify and establish key trends and drivers for the future. Curating the outcomes We’ll take all the outcomes from the Hackathon and explore them with a panel of experts in order to generate a vision of future scenarios.
The CIPD has a responsibility to lead the way in understanding and shaping the future of the people profession, setting it up for sustainable success within the future of work. This is the focus of the People Profession 2030 research. To try to understand what trends are shaping the profession, and the impact of these over the long term.
Vision 2030 At the CIPD Annual Conference and Exhibition 2020 we’ll be in a position to share our findings. We aim to present a clearer understanding of what trends may shape the people profession over the next decade, and what the future may look like. Supporting the people profession Based on the outcomes of the People Profession 2030 research, we’ll continue to refine, update and develop tools to support people

What is a hackathon? A hackathon is a sprint-like event, where relevant individuals and stakeholder groups collaborate simultaneously – virtually in this case – to discuss, raise ideas and answer key questions on a designated issue. What are we aiming to achieve? We aim to gain real insights on what the profession is going to look like in the coming years. We want to understand the key trends that are driving change, and what will make the profession tick in the years ahead. What’s your role? As a people professional, you have your own unique perspective on the profession – what it looks like to you, what the key trends are and the direction it is heading. We want your ideas on what the profession will look like in the future, and the trends that are driving this change now. No matter your level of experience, specialism, location or industry – every perspective is valuable.
