HR Personnel Forum

UBS Compensation Survey Outlook 2027 and Panel Discussion

Europe/Zurich

HR leaders face an ever-changing landscape shaped by talent shortages, rising costs, evolving employee expectations, and ongoing debates around hybrid work and cross-border employment. At the same time, rapid advances in artificial intelligence and digital technologies are transforming HR strategies and practices.

Against this backdrop, organizations must find the right balance between business priorities, technological innovation, and the human dimension of leadership. These developments raise important questions and create new opportunities for HR leaders to exchange perspectives and explore solutions to today’s most pressing challenges.

These and many other pressing topics will be discussed at this year’s HR Personnel Forum. Dr. Daniel Kalt, Chief Economist of UBS Switzerland, will provide insights into the results of the latest UBS Annual Compensation Survey. In addition, experienced HR managers will share how they are navigating today’s environment and highlight further perspectives and practical solutions from across industries. Korn Ferry will provide an introduction to the topic and Dr. Rahul Sahgal will moderate the panel discussion.
