The Autumn 2025 Budget will reshape what’s fundable in learning and development - just as the challenge intensifies. Organisations are tasked to: - Close a £23 billion digital skills gap - Reskill 3 million workers for net zero transitions - Engage and upskill five generations with very different learning needs. This session explores cost-effective strategies to embed digital fluency, sustainability competencies and leadership capability across the workforce. Discover how to engage Gen Z ‘digital natives’ and experienced leaders alike, while building resilient, future-ready organisations equipped to navigate transformational change. 2) Task Intelligence: Reshaping the Workforce in the Age of AI: As AI transforms how work gets done, HR leaders face a critical challenge: understanding work not just by roles or skills, but by the tasks that truly drive impact. This roundtable explores how “task intelligence” - the ability to map, analyse, and optimise work at a granular level - is redefining workforce strategy. Join fellow HR innovators to discuss how this new lens can uncover opportunities for automation, reskilling, and agility, while keeping people at the centre of transformation. 3) Sustaining the Power of Recognition: From Insight to Ongoing Impact. This interactive roundtable will dive deeper into how organisations can prove and sustain recognition ROI over time. Discuss strategies for collecting meaningful data, measuring cultural and performance outcomes, and adapting recognition for global and hybrid teams. Join your peers to exchange lessons learned, challenges faced and success stories from across industries. Together, we’ll explore how to turn recognition insights into ongoing results—creating programmes that inspire people, strengthen culture, and deliver lasting business value. 4) Humanising Enterprise Hiring: Bringing Connection to Scalable Recruitment. Today’s enterprise hiring leaders face a unique opportunity to scale efficiently and keep the candidate journey meaningful at every stage. As teams embrace automation and AI to streamline complex processes the most impactful organisations are also finding ways to strengthen human connection and showcase their employer brand in every interaction. In this roundtable, we’ll explore how leading TA teams are building hiring journeys that are fast, personal and reflective of their values. Please select your preferred 2 interactive roundtables for the afternoon: * 1) Rethinking Reward: How Innovative Salary Sacrifice Schemes Can Attract, Retain, and Reward in a Cost-Conscious Market. With rising costs and recent Class 1A NI increases, HR and Reward leaders face the challenge of balancing financial prudence with an exceptional employee experience. Traditional pay-rise strategies alone can’t solve retention pressures - meaning organisations are turning to smarter, more sustainable ways to add value. In this interactive, closed-door discussion, peers will explore how forward-thinking employers are leveraging salary sacrifice and sustainable mobility schemes to enhance attraction, reward and engagement - without increasing payroll costs. Together, we’ll unpack how these initiatives can support broader wellbeing, ESG and talent strategies, while driving tangible savings for both the business and it’s people. 2) Cultivating a Truly Resilient Workforce: Well‑being, Retention and Performance in Modern Workplaces. In this 60‑minute roundtable, HR leaders will explore how to support mental health and engagement in today’s workplace. We’ll discuss creating a culture where employees feel safe to speak up, practical approaches to well‑being and how to connect these efforts to retention and performance. 3) Empowering a Global Workforce: Innovative Hiring Strategies to Attract and Retain Talent in Emerging Markets. As organisations expand into new markets, attracting and retaining the right talent becomes both an opportunity and a challenge. In this roundtable, HR leaders will explore how Employer of Record (EOR) models can support global hiring, compliance and culture, helping teams stay connected and engaged across borders.
