šŸ¤ HR Trend Spotlight: Radius and Kami Partner to Improve HR Access Across the Philippines

Radius Telecoms has joined hands with Kami Workforce to make HR management more accessible for businesses in the Philippines. This partnership aims to bring cloud-based HR tools to small and mid-sized companies, many of which still rely on manual processes. By combining Kami’s HR software with Radius’s connectivity services, the two companies want to help organizations digitize their HR functions without heavy infrastructure costs. This effort is expected to benefit companies outside Metro Manila, where HR digitization has been slower. The collaboration highlights how localized partnerships can solve long-standing HR issues in underserved markets. Read more.

Aggie Yemurai Mutuma, CEO of Mahogany Inclusion Partners and a top-five thinker on the 2024 HR Most Influential list, joined HR magazine’s podcast to explain why inclusion should be seen as a strategic business tool—not just an HR initiative. She shared how inclusive workplaces drive better productivity, improve retention, and contribute directly to business performance. Mutuma, who also advises the CIPD on racial equity, spoke about the need to view inclusion as a core part of business strategy, not an optional add-on.

šŸ’” HR Tips & Tricks

Tip of the Day: Introduce a weekly "People Pulse Check" where each department rotates in sharing one thing that's working well and one challenge they're facing. Keep it short—just five minutes in a team huddle—but use the feedback to spot larger patterns early.

Trick of the Day: Set up a ā€œHR Concierge Deskā€ via internal messaging platforms where employees can ping HR for real-time help, just like they’d do at a hotel concierge. It creates a friendlier image of HR and increases employee engagement with HR processes.
