Agile HR — The “Firm-Eye Paradox”? The Evolution of HR Operating Models & Strategic Business Partnership

In the world of future work, we are told that everything will change and keep on changing. How is HR going to keep ahead? What will go away, and what just won’t? Let’s keep our eyes on the Stars, see what ‘good, better, best’ is shaping up to be for HR in leading organisations, and take a shot at how we will, formally and future-ly, steer an agile path to helping our Firms, and our HR people, succeed.

In an evolving landscape where customer expectations continually rise, understanding and proactively addressing customer needs is no longer optional—it’s essential. This session explores how empathy-driven customer experience (CX), combined with strategic automation and cutting-edge AI, can radically enhance efficiency, agent performance, and customer loyalty. Leveraging real-world insights and innovative frameworks, discover practical ways to future-proof your contact centre operations.

Strength-Based Leadership and Creating an Ecosystem of Coaches

At Accor, our journey in embedding Strength-Based Leadership and building an ecosystem of coaches is a strategic priority and a cornerstone of our people development philosophy.

In our pursuit of a coaching culture, we’ve implemented a range of initiatives that bring together the best different developmental resources. These initiatives are not standalone programmes; they are part of a deliberate, connected effort to empower our leaders and teams. By focusing on individual and collective strengths, and grounded in core coaching principles, we are shaping a workplace where continuous learning, empathy, and performance go hand in hand. This culture fosters not only personal growth but also drives team resilience, engagement, and business impact.

Rather than just talking about the theory, we want you to hear directly from our leaders. They will share how adopting a coaching mindset has transformed their leadership and the tangible difference it has made for their teams and the organisation as a whole.

Infusing Employee Value Proposition (EVP) in Your Talent Strategy to Thrive in the Future of Work

As the workplace rapidly evolves, organisations must reimagine their talent strategies to remain competitive and future-ready. This session explores how a compelling, authentic, and evolving Employee Value Proposition (EVP) can anchor talent attraction, engagement, and retention, serving as a strategic differentiator in the future of work.

For decades, leadership has been benchmarked against outcomes — growth, profitability, market share. But as we enter an era defined by complexity, stakeholder capitalism, and workforce fluidity, the metrics for leadership success are evolving.

 

Today’s most successful organisations aren’t just technology-enabled or agile — they are human-centred by design. Why? Because the greatest differentiator is no longer strategy or digital capability — it’s the human system behind it. Human-centred leadership is now the critical foundation for driving engagement, innovation, and resilience in a world where uncertainty is constant and value creation is deeply intertwined with trust, purpose, and well-being. This session reframes human-centred leadership as a strategic operating model — one that redefines performance, strengthens culture, and aligns leadership behaviours with long-term enterprise value.
