We wanted to appeal to participants from diverse industries and organisations representing HR and business leadership. “Wow” is all we can say on this. The spark and energy in the room were palpable. Our attendees included the COO of World Rugby, the deputy director of NATO and the head of global HR for MUFG bank. It all made for a heady cocktail of expertise, energy and intellectual curiosity. We wanted to meet in an
amazing venue designed as a hotbed for learning, collaboration and creativity. Henley Business School fitted the bill brilliantly, providing a beautiful and functional space for our masterclass, winning plaudits from all our participants. We wanted to discuss the
fact that, to thrive, today’s organisations and leaders need to cope with an increasingly complex, intertwined, messy, global, dispersed, tech-enabled world of work. Recognising that this was an ambitious and somewhat abstract objective, we believe we succeeded. During the masterclass we explored a range of opportunities for participants whose companies are stuck with outdated HR processes and notions of leadership due to an over-reliance and belief in the ‘neat and tidy’ world of ‘evidence- based management’. Throughout the masterclass we
challenged ourselves to consider whether applying the lens of complex adaptive systems to our organisations, processes and people would reveal new insights and opportunities for HR and the wider organisation. We wanted to test our very own Turbocharging Performance Model and Diagnostic during the masterclass, designed to enable participants to critique their organisation and explore what they might want to evolve or change. We were pleased to kick around our Model and Diagnostic and road test it with participants from a wide
37
range of organisations, including Birmingham University, a medical charity, an HR consultancy and a tech start-up. We’ll improve the model and tool ready for when we use it with the wide range of organisations we coach and consult with. Finally, we hoped to partner
with some progressive sponsors who would really get the relevance of our masterclass and enable us to spread the message and learning wider. We built a great partnership with ‘Think Global People’ and Reed Learning and cannot thank our sponsors enough for giving us a platform to publish our thoughts. Of course, it’s our participants
who need to have the final word on the event’s success. “This is the best training and
masterclass I have ever been to and, believe me, I have been to many!” “Jenny, Phil and Amira assembled
some incredibly insightful speakers and put together a truly outstanding masterclass. It really did do what it said on the tin, ‘Turbocharging Performance: People-powered leadership to maximise talent.’”
” WE WANTED TO APPEAL TO PARTICIPANTS FROM DIVERSE INDUSTRIES AND ORGANISATIONS REPRESENTING HR AND BUSINESS LEADERSHIP. ‘WOW’ IS ALL WE CAN SAY ON THIS. THE SPARK AND ENERGY IN THE ROOM WERE PALPABLE.”
