Work Wellbeing: Leading thriving teams in rapidly changing times

Over the last few years wellbeing has risen to the top of the agenda. It is one of the key challenges and opportunities that our society faces. In any given week, we spend more than a third of our waking hours at work, so it is the place we most need to get wellbeing right. It is also a key priority for workers, with 83% saying it is up to the employer to facilitate. Based on her book Work Wellbeing: Leading thriving teams in rapidly changing times, in this session Ashley will provide a practical, data-driven and engaging guide to work wellbeing; equipping leaders, managers and employees with a thorough understanding of what work wellbeing is, why it’s a non-negotiable for the future and how to achieve it.

Recruiting, retaining & training the new generations at work

The future is shaped not just by the technological changes but also the sociological changes. It is critical to understand the attitudes, values and expectations of the diverse generations comprising today’s workforce. This session will outline the new demographics and the social trends which have shaped Gen Y and Gen Z and will identify the HR implications of these new attitudes, values, and workplace priorities of today’s employees. Ashley will highlight the implications of this for effective employer branding, attraction and retention strategies, workplace communications and leadership styles.
