Unlocking the New Normal in Asia Pacific: HR’s Winning Strategy in the Post-Pandemic Era

In the post-pandemic era, human resource management in the Asia Pacific region faces profound changes. Trends such as normalized remote work, accelerated digital transformation, and diversified employee demands are reshaping corporate talent management models. The 2024 Asia Pacific HR Survey shows that over 80% of companies are redesigning their HR strategies to adapt to business development needs in the new normal.

Against this backdrop, companies need to establish more resilient and adaptive human resource management systems. From Singapore to Japan, from Australia to South Korea, companies across countries are actively exploring innovative HR practices. Building talent management solutions that integrate local experience with global vision and align with Asia Pacific characteristics has become key to success for companies expanding overseas.

I.New Paradigm of Remote Work

1.1 Localized Practices of Hybrid Work Models

Countries across the Asia Pacific region show significant differences in their acceptance and implementation of hybrid work models in the post-pandemic era.
