EVENT: February 20th 2018 - "HR 2018: The Things That Matter Now"

On February 20th 2018 Leathwaite held its latest HR Leadership event, titled “HR 2018: The Things That Matter Now,” featuring Sally Gunnell OBE.

Event Synopsis:

As we move into a new year, the road ahead for HR professionals is as exciting and daunting as it has ever been. To mark the advent of our annual HR leadership survey, and in recognition of some of the key topics on the HR agenda, we held a HR Leadership event at our London offices with industry peers to discuss some of the things that really matter now.

Key topics included:

Cultural Change, Digitization & Talent Acquisition – top 3 business challenges across every sector
The fact that 80% of the survey have or will undertake a tech-based HR Transformation
The Chief Culture Officer cited as a the most likely new HR Exco member in 3-5 years (bearing in mind that in 90+% of organisations this is a role that doesn’t exist today).

Guest Speakers:

Sally Gunnell OBE

“The Essex Girl who captured the hearts of a nation.” She remains the only woman ever to hold four major track titles concurrently – Olympic, World, European and Commonwealth. Following her retirement from international athletics, Sally developed a career as a television presenter, keynote speaker and Corporate Wellbeing consultant.

Sally’s rise to the pinnacle of her sport was hard,winning Olympic Gold in 1992 and defied incredible odds to become World Champion in 1993, setting a new World Record in the process. Her success, by her own admission, was down to a firm grip over her own mind and a lot of very hard graft!

Keynote Speaker:

Expertise, mentality, organisation; three factors that shaped Sally’s career. With them she hit some incredible highs and recovered from some devastating lows. There are many similarities between high performance in the worlds of sport and business. Topics Sally addressed included:

• Change Management
• Overcoming Adversity
• The space between talent and performance – Mental attitude
• Need to achieve Vs Fear of failure
• Leadership
• Teamwork
• Synergy – surrounding yourself with talent
• Importance of wellbeing

Zoe Eccleston
