Episode 198: 80% Millennial & GenZ – HR Leadership for the New Majority – Severine Riviere-Gerstner, Chief People Officer at Sportradar
Description
Severine describes herself as an HR professional “by passion and by design”, sharing her impact in enabling consistent transformation - from accelerating talent planning for a workforce that’s 80% Millennial and Gen Z, to evolving culture and embracing AI through innovative learning strategies.
Severine summarises Sportradar’s Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging programme, for 4,000 employees across 80+ nationalities with a balance of global goals and local action, and is candid about industry challenges such as gender representation in both sport and technology.
Asked for one wish, an action for all HR leaders, Severine calls on practitioners to help people be the best version of themselves, believing that enabling individuals to act from a place of abundance and balance can transform organisations and society step by step.
