Nearly half of Malaysian businesses are optimistic about growth in 2025, yet most are not planning to significantly increase their headcount. This "do more with less" approach is redefining workforce strategy, forcing leaders to focus on productivity, technology, and retaining top-tier talent in a challenging economic climate.

Rahul Chawla, Head of Talent Solutions for Southeast Asia at Aon, joins us to break down the findings from their latest pulse survey. He discusses why cautious optimism prevails, how to build a resilient workforce, and the sophisticated reward strategies needed to attract and retain the "super talent" that drives growth.

We discuss:

The paradox of positive business outlook vs. slow headcount growth.
How to develop a strategic "compensation philosophy" for your business.
Strategies for retaining "super talent" in critical tech and sales roles.
Why measuring productivity goes beyond just financial metrics.
The importance of "knowing your workforce" (KYW) to prepare for the future.

For HR leaders and C-suite executives navigating the complexities of talent management, this episode is a data-driven guide to building a resilient and productive workforce.
