Deeply saddened to read of the passing of ex CIPD Chief Exec Jackie Orme, aged just 46.
Jackie did much to help drive HR in a more strategic direction - thinking especially of how the Institute is taking a genuine lead in the field of Employee Engagement.
May her legacy be the HR function continuing to look outwardly rather than inwardly in future...
