Labour market in Pomerania region is dynamically developing and its constantly improving statistics make recruiting new candidates for work more and more challenging. Human resource managers have to put a lot of effort to prevent already employed workers from looking around for a new employer.

However, what makes employees happy, can be a headache for employers and companies’ HR departments. For it means that it will be getting more and more difficult to find new workers. Additionally, it won’t be easy to keep already employed persons for a longer period of time.

That is why, the heads of human resource managers are already full of ideas how to make company’s image attractive and to improve working conditions effectively. During the conference dedicated to all HR-workers – Yes, We Can! you will have a chance to find out which of them are effective and which of them are worth implementing into corporate reality.

We are talking to Krzysztof Kunicki, one of the speakers during the event and the organiser of the project, about HR specialists’ needs in Pomerania region and about skills, which guarantee getting a great job. We are also discussing and wondering why the biggest strength of every company is well-chosen, talented stuff and why it is worth to participate in the event in Olivia Business Centre.

Monika Bogdanowicz (Olivia Business Centre Communication): Who needs a good HR today? Why did you decide to organise “Yes, We Can!” conference?

Krzysztof Kunicki (Job Office, Employment Office in Gdańsk)*: Who needs a good HR today? I think every company does. For sure the ones, which want to recruit valuable workers and develop thanks to them. The idea to organise experts’ debate in some way derived from HR specialists’ needs.

It may sound like a simplification, but nowadays many companies identify good HR services for example with high remuneration, additional health insurance or Multisport card. Until recently, such solutions attracted candidates effectively. However, today they are treated as a kind of standard benefits. In such a situation, HR specialists ask themselves what else can be done. What can attract the best workers effectively and keep them for longer. This is the issue we would like to talk about – the most interesting trends and proven ideas for better HR.

MB: What does a current situation in labour market look like, if we look at it from the centre of business environment, where Job Office and the Centre of Talent Development – event’s organisers – have their headquarters?

KK: Labour market is an area, which is changing very dynamically. Not so long ago, companies recruiting specialists for different kinds of positions didn’t have any problems with finding potential workers. They didn’t always meet all employers’ demands, but at least they were recruited. Unfortunately, today the situation is different.

It is very difficult to recruit candidates even for such positions, which don’t require high qualifications. It also significantly touches international corporations and so called big business, which, because of its character, searches for candidates with certain kind of knowledge and skills, even language ones.

MB: What are, currently, the biggest challenges for people who recruit workers and develop human capital in Pomeranian companies?

KK: There are several challenges. When it comes to the most important ones, I can safely indicate two – searching for right workers and keeping them in a company for a longer period of time. It is no secret that conditions in labour market are currently dictated by people who are looking for jobs. The best ones can pick through many job offers, that is why HR specialists don’t have an easy task to deal with. They have to attract candidates more effectively than their competitors. However, this is not the end of challenges.

We are living in a very mobile world. Especially young people have different approach to employment than, for example, their parents who could work in the same company their whole lives. Today, changing workplace is nothing unusual. That is why the role of HR specialists is to develop such an offer to make the best workers stay in a company as long as possible.

MB: Which elements of the programme do you think are the most important for participants and which element distinguishes your event?

People who want to share their knowledge and experience, always make any conference, debate or discussion panel unique. This case isn’t different. We invited to the discussion a group of extremely interesting people, who have been working as HR managers in international environment for many years. In short, real experts in their profession. Such a description fits perfectly Konrad Lipski from State Street Bank or Ewa Mandryk, who developed her career, among other companies, in Intel.

Of course, there will be more speakers, but I think that speakers have the same motto: it doesn’t matter how difficult our challenges will be, we can do it, in short, Yes, We Can!

September is the time to return after the holidays to a wide range of regular meetings and conferences in Olivia Business Centre, in the main conference room of Olivia Sky Club. One of the very important thematic areas that are constantly present in the program of this place, which is by definition a space of integration and inspiration, is the area of topics related to the management of human capital and social capital, as well as the intensive exploration of talent development opportunities by companies.

On 11 September, from 8.30 a.m. to 12.00 p.m. in Olivia Sky Club (Olivia Tower, 12th floor), a business breakfast will be held.HR Trends 2017. Changing the rules in the digital age“, to which we also invite you with an interview with its organizer, Joanna Bojarska-Buchcic.

The theme of the event will be a presentation “HR Trends 2017. Changing the rules in the digital era”. This is one of Deloitte’s most extensive research projects on talent, leadership and the challenges facing HR departments in the era of the technological revolution.

Monika Bogdanowicz (Komunikacja Olivia Business Centre): Joanna, the next meeting, organized by the American Chamber of Commerce Poland in Olivia Business Centre, will be devoted to strategic human resource management under the title “Strategic HR”. What is the idea behind the meetings and for whom are they organized?

Joanna Bojarska-Buchcic (Managing Partner HR SOLUTIONS GROUP, Regional Director at the American Chamber of Commerce Poland): By taking up the function (Red. Regional Director) in AmCham in April this year, I decided that issues related to strategic human resources management, which I have also been dealing with for 18 years, are so important in the current reality of the development of modern technologies and the rapidly changing labor market, that I decided to create a series of meetings within the Chamber entitled “Strategic Human Resources Management”. “Strategic HR”. Meeting they take place once a month and are dedicated to HR departments as well as management boards.

Their aim is to provide knowledge about modern human resources management and the exchange of experiences between the participants of the meetings, as well as to present modern solutions and global trends in the area of HR.

I hope that the program prepared by me and partner companies for the autumn of this year will be interesting for the participants and will provide knowledge and experience in the areas of m.in. strategic remuneration management, building the environment and employee engagement, as well as the use of modern tools and technologies.

On 30 August, at the Hilton Hotel in Gdańsk, a meeting of HR Directors of key Tri-City companies was held, during which we debated about the challenges faced by modern HR departments and the possibilities on our part, as the Chamber, of supporting these activities by providing interesting knowledge and a platform for the exchange of experience.

This has personally confirmed my conviction that there is indeed a need, and I would like to respond to this need with support as a representative of the House in the region.

Our members are global American companies, which are among the first in the world to experience changes in various areas of management caused by global Polish digitization, which is not without significance, because these trends in organizations are strongly entering our Polish market, which has a great impact on competitive companies, which are somehow forced to implement changes in their organizations.

MB: During your planned meeting, Deloitte will present the “ HR Trends 2017″ Report. HR Trends 2017. Changing the rules for the digital age“. Why and how is this report important for Tri-City business?

JB-B.: Deloitte has been compiling reports on HR trends around the world for years. The report “HR Trends 2017. Changing the rules in the digital age” is the largest study on human capital conducted by Deloitte. The survey surveyed 10,000 employees from 140 countries. This report shows the huge changes that are taking place in the business world, which are dictated by the intensive development of technology and digitization in the world. This actually means a change in the rules of running and managing business, as well as a new role for HR. HR faces major challenges related to building multicultural and multigenerational teams, whose members have very different needs related to functioning both in the business environment and in the company itself. On top of that, there is a technological change that not all generations of employees are ready for. The report shows global trends in HR and our Polish reality.

The change in leaders’ thinking aims to create the organization of the future, both in terms of the work environment, career development opportunities and talent acquisition in a difficult, competitive labor market. It also concerns the implementation of modern technologies that streamline work and improve its efficiency, and thus productivity.

I invited Deloitte to present the report because it is of particular strategic value for people managing human resources in organizations.

The report shows what companies from the Tri-City market will have to face in the coming future. By seeing the trends, you can properly prepare and implement this change in the organization.

It was very important to me to present the report on our Tri-City market, because I believe that it is people who create companies. And being competitive in such a demanding market requires the implementation of activities in the area of building employee engagement, getting to know and satisfying their professional needs.

MB: In your opinion, how can analyses and recommendations for development in the area of HR for companies with different potential be helpful in developing a strategy of action and building the organization of the future?

JB-B.: I believe that market reports are very helpful in building a company’s human resource management strategy. Because of their reliability, they provide information directly from leaders, managers, and employees. We get to know their opinions and opinions on various topics, as well as their needs.

Today’s efficiently managed and effective organization means satisfied and motivated employees, as well as wisely selected tools and technologies that improve and support work, not hinder it. Companies need to undergo a change in the way the employee thinks and perceives within the organization. This involves a change in mentality and principles of managing people. After all, multigenerational teams mean different needs and different ways of management. This requires time and work of HR departments to create effective teams that will work in the organization and create it in the long term.

Taking into account certain aspects in creating an HR strategy, such as a talent acquisition policy, it is necessary to know what kind of work and in what environment talents expect. Such knowledge is provided by analyses and reports.

I believe that market data and trends are essential today in formulating a company’s HR strategy.

MB.: Thank you very much for the interview!

JB-B.: Thank you and I invite you to the meetings of the “Strategic HR” series and “HR Trends 2017. Changing the rules in the digital age”.

The event’s main theme will be the presentation of “HR Trends 2017. Change of the rules in the digital era” report. It is one of the most wide-ranging research projects conducted by Deloitte concerning talents, leadership and challenges, which HR departments are facing in the era of the technological revolution.

Monika Bogdanowicz (Olivia Business Centre Communication): Ms Joanna, the next meeting organised by American Chamber of Commerce Poland in Olivia Business Centre will be devoted to strategic human capital management under the title “Strategic HR”. What is the idea of such meetings and who are they organised for?

Joanna Bojarska-Buchcic (Managing Partner HR SOLUTIONS GROUP, Regional Director in American Chamber of Commerce Poland): When I took the position ( ed. Regional Director) in AmCham this April, I realised that the issues connected with strategic human capital management, which I have been dealing with for 18 years, are of such importance in the current reality of modern technologies and rapidly changing labour market, that I decided to create, within chamber’s framework, a cycle of meetings called “Strategic HR”. The meetings take place once a month and are addressed to HR departments and management boards.

Their aim is to deliver knowledge on modern human resources management and exchange experiences between participants, as well as to present modern solutions and global trends within the scope of HR.

I hope that the programme prepared by me and partner companies for this autumn will be interesting for the participants and will deliver knowledge and experiences from the scope of, for example, strategic management of remuneration, creating environment and workers’ involvement, as well as using modern tools and technologies.

On August 30 in Hilton Hotel in Gdańsk, there took place the meeting of Human Resource Directors from key Tricity companies, during which we debated on challenges facing modern HR departments and our, as a Chamber’s, opportunities to support such actions by delivering interesting knowledge and platform to exchange experiences.

It confirmed my beliefs that such a need really exists and I would like, representing the Chamber in this region, to support this need.

Our members are global American companies, which, among the first ones in the world, are experiencing changes in various management areas caused by global digitalisation. It is also important because such trends in organisations intensely penetrate our Polish market, what really affects competing companies, which are somewhat forced to introduce changes in their organisations.

MB: During the planned meeting
, Deloitte will present “HR Trends 2017.
Change of the rules in the digital era” report. Why and in what way is this report important for Tricity business?

JB-B.: Deloitte has been preparing reports concerning global HR trends for many years. “HR Trends 2017. Change of the rules in the digital era” report is the biggest study in the scope of human capital conducted by Deloitte. The study covered a group of 10000 workers from 140 countries. The report presents huge changes, which occur in the world of business and which are dictated by the intensive global development of technology and digitalisation. In reality, it means the change of rules concerning conducting business and managing it, as well as new role of HR. HR is facing big challenges of creating multicultural and multigenerational teams, members of which have very different needs connected with functioning both in business environment and in a company itself. To this we can add technological change, for which not all generations of workers are ready. The report presents global trends in HR and our Polish reality.

The change of leaders’ way of thinking leads up to creating organisations of the future both when it comes to working environment, opportunities to develop career and recruit new talents in a difficult and competitive labour market. This regards also the implementation of modern technologies, which optimise work and improve effectiveness and consequently productivity.

I have invited Deloitte to present the report because it has essential strategic value for people who manage human resources in organisations.

The report shows what companies from Tricity market will have to face in the coming future. If you know the trends, you can prepare this change in a right way and implement it in an organisation.

It was very important to me to present the report in our Tricity market because I think that it is the people that create companies. Being competitive in such a demanding market requires implementing actions in the scope of building workers’ involvement, getting to know and meeting their professional needs.

MB: In what way, according to your experience, can analyses and recommendations of development in the area of HR for companies with different potential be helpful in developing strategies for actions and building organisations of future?

JB-B.: I think that reports from markets are very helpful in developing the strategies of HR management in companies. Due to their reliability they provide information directly to leaders, managers and workers. We get to know their views and opinions on different subjects, as well as their needs.

Today’s well-managed and effective organisation means satisfied and motivated workers, as well as well-selected tools and technologies, which optimise and support work instead of inhibiting it. Companies have to change their way of thinking and perceiving workers in an organisation. It is connected with the change of mentality and rules of managing people. Multigenerational teams mean different needs and ways of managing. It requires time and work of HR departments in creating effective teams, which will be working in an organisation and will create it in the long-term perspective.

Taking into account some aspects while creating HR strategies, such as the policy of talent acquisition, it is essential to have knowledge about what kind of work and in which environment is expected by talents. Such knowledge can be derived from analyses and reports.

I think that market data and trends are crucial nowadays while formulating company’s HR strategy.

MB.: Thank you very much for the interview!

JB-B.: Thank you. I would like to invite to the meetings from “Strategic HR” and “HR Trends 2017. Change of the rules in the digital era” cycle.

Advanced technologies turn many traditional sectors of the economy now upside down. Changes also occur in our mentality – we have become more open using many things without necessarily owning them. As a result, completely new business models are developed, based on dispersed know-how, trust and involvement of the community – e.g. sharing economy. Can it become a development springboard for companies in Pomerania? How could we apply our openness in combination with technological potential for a better life quality?

The interview with Maciej Grabski, President of the Management Board of the Olivia Business Centre is made by Marcin Wandałowski, Executive Editor of “
Pomorski Przegląd Gospodarczy
“.

In many areas of the economy we note nowadays a process of transfer from business models based on centralised institutions to models relying on dispersed know-how, trust and – increasingly frequently – involvement of the community. Where has the change come from?

It has been brought about by several phenomena, but two of them stand out. I will start with cultural changes – young people have become more open to using many things without necessarily owning them. And it was only recently that the interest in possessing things used to be a priority for many. This is supplemented with a technological aspect – now we have computers, smartphones, tablets that we use to get access to inexpensive and flexible payment systems and communication systems with others. We do not have to visit offices of banks to use them – we keep hands on everything. As a result, we can execute transactions in a simple way. And additionally – they are relatively secure. People who sell, rent or buy something – like an apartment or a car – are subject to assessment. The Joneses assess other Joneses. User verification has become the basis for the functioning of multiple business operating in the web.

Are we basically untrusting and not willing to cooperate?

Recently, a survey has been held in which respondents were asked: “Would you share your home or car with others?” The results both among Poles and among Americans who are perceived as very open people, show a positive response was given by 2/3 of the respondents. In those terms, statistically there is no difference between us. I think that as a nation we are open – we like to have fun, share our joys, entertain guests at home. Let’s look at EURO 2012 or the World Youth Days. We are no different that the Americans or West European communities.

Can this be translated into success of the companies that begin operation in Poland in the sharing economy model?

They have hardly started. So far, I have not noticed either in Pomerania or in Poland any companies of that kind that have grown so much to become our showcases. Allegro perhaps is a good example. However, I notice that many niches in our country have been filled in by large international corporations like Uber or Airbnb. Soon, our market will also be entered by foreign entities that are involved in lending money among people or even in pizza, deliveries by courier or other customers. Luckily, many types of services take place in local markets – Pomerania, Poland, Central Europe – and that is why we have an opportunity to implement interesting ideas as it is simpler to do things here and now. For Polish companies – even if they do have interesting ideas – it will be difficult to get through to global levels since often it is a matter of available cash to be used to fight competitors than the aspect of good ideas.

Come visit us!

Searching, but also constantly developing passions is an extremely important topic in the life of each of us. By being guided by passion, we manage to live a fuller, wiser and certainly more interesting life. However, in order to have the effects of such actions, you need to start well, preferably as early as possible. We would like to tell you about a boy whose activity touched us so much that we decided to introduce him to our entire Olivia Business Centre community.

This story begins many months ago, when we met a 13-year-old boy among the audience of Olivia Camerata chamber music concerts. He found information about the possibility of taking part in this event, registered his participation in it by e-mail (now it is much easier :)) and… appeared at a performance at Olivia Sky Club. Seemingly an ordinary action, but nevertheless – taking into account the fact that information about Camerata concerts are distributed in selected places on the Internet, and our protagonist is 13 years old – we should appreciate both the fact of reaching them and the fact that finding the message in the right place (quite rarely visited by teenagers) and time allowed us to combine many elements;)

And this is how Mateusz Chaj (because he is the main character of this story) became a regular participant of events, meetings and conferences organized in Olivia Business Centre. As most of them are free to enter (although registration is required), there is no age limit. Thus, Mateusz took an active part in such projects as the meetings of the Olivia Cooltura series with Marek Kamiński and Maciej Kosycarz or the Jagiellonian Club, where the role and importance of cooperation between Gdańsk and the Scandinavian countries were discussed. What a vast and diverse spectrum of topics and activities, taking into account both the age of our protagonist and his basic activity, i.e. school activities. If we add to this the fact that he joined the OBC team and made kilometers for Gdańsk as part of the “Bicycle May” campaign, we have almost a full picture of Mateusz – an enthusiast of many dimensions.

We decided to recognize and highlight Mateusz’s exceptional commitment to the development of our community, also because we believe that proactivity is one of the most important qualities of anyone who wants to successfully shape their future. We are also very happy that Mateusz’s family accepted our invitation to Olivia Business Centre and we were able to get to know the boy better, for whom openness and curiosity about the world are a standard and who wants and is able to draw so boldly from the world around him (and at the same time travelled almost 560 kilometres for us):)

Here is what Mateusz said about Olivia Business Centre during our meeting: – I like this place. For a lot of interesting events in which I can participate. I started with classical music concerts, I also take part in meetings with famous people at the Sky Club. I’m always very curious about what they have to say, and Olivia Business Centre gives me the opportunity to even talk to them. Maybe one day I’ll work here. Besides, I expected Olivia Business Centre to be the best in terms of kilometres. And so we got a good result, I hope it will be even better next year He added with a smile.

We want Olivia Business Centre to be a friendly meeting place for many different environments and people. Therefore, we try to create optimal conditions for their personal and professional development and support them in creating new activities or developing their passions. Our events, meetings, conferences (several hundred a year!) are addressed not only to Olivia’s employees, but also to all residents of the Tri-City. Matthew’s example can certainly be an inspiration for all of us, all of us who are looking for ways and concepts on how to develop our potential and talents.

“It is extremely motivating for us that such a young man, now fourteen-year-old Mateusz, is already pinning his hopes for the future on Olivia. We don’t know how his life will turn out and what choices he will still make, but we have noticed and decided to appreciate his commitment today, passion, openness and constant willingness to learn. He is an extraordinary young man. Because Mateusz loves to ride a bike, he just received a bicycle from us. – says Monika Bogdanowicz from Olivia Business Centre, responsible m.in. for the CSR area in the company.

– We were invited to Olivia Business Centre with the whole family. It was a huge surprise for us! Mateusz has always been interested in many non-obvious topics and willingly took part in various, near and far, expeditions and trips. I’m glad that his passion for meeting interesting people and riding a bike has been noticed and awarded with such a beautiful gift. I think he will ride this bike with the conviction that it is worth doing more. For yourself and for others – adds Małgorzata Chaj, Mateusz’s mother.
