People Strategy in a Day
A small-group full-day workshop for SME owners, senior leaders and in-house HR professionals who want to step back from day-to-day pressures and take a more strategic view of how people decisions support the direction of the business.
With significant changes in employment law and rising workforce expectations, and while strong HR compliance and operational practice remain essential, a more deliberate and aligned approach to people strategy creates a clear competitive advantage.
This workshop provides the foundation for developing a new people strategy or strengthening an existing one to support business performance, growth and long-term success.

Turning Strategy into Action
Developing a people strategy starts by stepping back from day-to-day pressures.
Understanding your business direction, external influences and current people practices creates the foundation for more effective decisions.
A more deliberate approach aligns people with business priorities and supports long-term performance.
Take it further.
People Strategy in a Day takes you through the key elements of a people strategy – understanding what shapes it, how it connects to your business and how to start developing a clear, aligned approach.
Strategic Workshops explore key areas such as the employment deal, performance, reward and recognition in greater depth – building on the foundations introduced in People Strategy in a Day and turning strategy into practical action.
