International Talk Show | THE FUTURE OF DEI: GLOBAL TRENDS, LOCAL TENSIONS

| DEI & Global Trends | Over the past decade, DEI strategies have become a pillar of corporate culture across many global organisations. More recently, however, they have come under a new wave of scrutiny regarding how companies approach these commitments. In some regions, political and cultural backlash is challenging the legitimacy - and even the legality - of diversity and inclusion programs. This panel will explore how multinational companies are to navigate this shifting landscape: what DEI means in 2025, how its implementation varies across regions, and how People & Culture managers can uphold inclusive values while adapting to diverging legal, political, and social expectations.

International Talk Show | PEOPLE MANAGEMENT IN A LESS GLOBALISED WORLD: RETHINKING TALENT IN TIMES OF RESTRICTED MOBILITY

| Talent & Global Trends | Globalisation is slowing down. Geopolitical tensions, the reshaping of supply chains, protectionism, and new restrictions on immigration and mobility are redefining how companies operate across borders. This panel will explore how People & Culture leaders can adapt their strategies in a world with fewer international opportunities, and how they must rethink talent management, mobility, and collaboration in increasingly fragmented markets.

ANTEPRIMA FORUM HR PEOPLE & CULTURE 2025 | Exclusive Forum Live | Opening Talk Show | RETHINKING WORK ETHICS: A GLOBAL SHIFT IN WORKPLACE CULTURE

ENGLISH VERSION: Work is no longer the unquestioned cornerstone of life it once was. Across developed economies, we are witnessing a profound cultural shift: from the rise of hybrid work and the demand for flexibility in Europe, to increased focus on well-being and purpose in the US, to Japan’s efforts to soften its rigid work culture. While the pandemic accelerated this change, its origins lie in broader cultural, economic, and technological transformations. Even the global trend of rebranding HR as “People & Culture” signals a need for new paradigms. This Opening Talk Show will explore how People & Culture leaders can adapt to remain relevant in a changing world, embracing collaboration, shared intelligence, and purpose as new ethical foundations for work. ITALIAN VERSION: Il lavoro non è più il pilastro indiscusso della vita che è stato per generazioni. Nelle economie sviluppate si sta affermando un cambiamento culturale profondo: in Europa cresce la richiesta di modelli ibridi e flessibili, negli Stati Uniti l’attenzione si concentra sul benessere e sul senso del lavoro, mentre in Giappone si tenta di superare una cultura aziendale ancora rigida. La pandemia ha accelerato questa trasformazione, ma le sue radici affondano in dinamiche culturali, economiche e tecnologiche più ampie. Anche il passaggio da “Human Resources” a “People & Culture” riflette la necessità di nuovi paradigmi fondati su collaborazione, senso e Co-Intelligenza. L’Opening Talk Show esplorerà come i leader possano interpretare questa evoluzione per costruire un’etica del lavoro più umana, condivisa e sostenibile. HAI PARTECIPATO ALL'ANTEPRIMA FORUM HR 2025?
