Notes to answerer

Asker: That's a really good suggestion, Leif. My original translation was 'at the top of the agenda', but it doesn't have the same sense of movement. Thanks again!

24 mins confidence:

full speed ahead into

Explanation:
The idea is that the idea is now fully embraced and there's no longer any hesitation, as I read this.

emerging as the it topic

Explanation:
"It is emerging as the it topic for management and HR"

All "full fart inn i" really states is that this is a trend, pick your preferred English idiom accordingly.

Notes to answerer

Asker: Good idea, but I haven't heard a collocation with "the 'it' topic" before, I have only heard "the 'in' topic" or "the 'hot' topic". But perhaps this is another example of the US having different collocations to the UK. Thanks for your suggestion!
