The next meeting of the HR Directors' professional network will be held on Thursday 12 September 2024, 10.00 - 15.00, and we are delighted to invite members to the London offices of Trowers & Hamilins to participate in this exciting event.
The theme for the morning will be well-being. The CQC's Single Assessment Framework requires managers to take responsibility for the well-being of their staff. How can HR teams support their colleagues in Operations departments in this regard? Jakki Stevens, Head of Quality & Compliance at Aspens, will talk through Aspens' approach for working with HR.
After a short refreshment break, we will stay with the theme of wellbeing but with a shift in focus. HR professionals are often so focused on the well-being of others that they neglect themselves, so we are delighted to welcome Rebecca Kilpatrick of Kilpatrick Consultancy, who will speak about the well-being of HR professionals and how to promote the well-being of your team.
After this session, there will be a complimentary networking lunch. Additionally, Rebecca Kilpatrick will be leading a voluntary ten-minute wellbeing session. This will provide attendees with an opportunity to unwind, relax, and alleviate stress.
After lunch, our attention will turn to employment law. There is much to talk about as a result of the change in government so this session will feature a speaker as well as member-led discussions.
Book now to secure your place at this exciting event.
Please note that spaces at this event are limited to one per member organisation.
