On the show, Cecile shared her perspectives on the modern organization and workplace, the challenge and opportunity for HR professionals to help create truly resonant workplaces, and how new and innovative technologies play a key supporting role in helping drive these transformations. There can be a lot of disillusion and doubt in HR and in workplaces - with an increase in automation and many organizations still operating in a transaction based mindset. Resonance means finding a place where things feel 'right' and where people, and HR, and organizations amplify each other.
