Structure is not value: the report and Spihra

from The HR Digi Podcast Hosted by HR Digi

Anna Carlsson has released two things that belong together: the free report From Structure to Value, HR priorities for 2027, and Spihra, the model and tool behind it, built together with Åsa Landin at People Dimension. In this episode, Anna takes you through the thinking behind the report, why structure is not the same thing as value, and why the real return on HR technology, data and AI comes later in the journey than most organisations expect. She then explains how Spihra works underneath, what it measures, how the business case is built and why the second measurement matters. She covers the five levels of maturity, the twelve dimensions and eleven enabling factors, and how the model is used to identify where an organisation is today, where it should be heading and what needs to happen in between. The episode ends with three priorities for 2027 and a simple way to find out where your own organisation stands.
