The March 2012 European issue includes coverage of:
 

• The results of the 2011 BCG/EAPM Survey, which found that the top HR issues for the present and future are strategic in nature and of long-term importance: talent management, leadership development, strategic workforce planning and transforming HR into a strategic partner. The article, written by Rainer Strack and Jean-Michel Caye of BCG, and myself, representing EAPM, also discusses the four megatrends that must be considered when devising any future HR strategy—demographics, diversity, social networks and globalization.

• A wrap-up of the highly successful and insightful 25th Annual EAPM Conference, which attracted more than 2,000 attendees to Istanbul in September.
• Women in Europe are breaking the glass ceiling and occupying a higher percentage of board seats in Fortune Global 200 companies than ever before. This article explores the reasons behind European business women’s success.
• HR-related developments in Europe.
 
The next issue of WorldLink will focus on the African Human Resources Confederation (AHRC).
