OUR THEME FOR 2025: LEARN. SKILLS. ENGAGE. TALENT.
Empowering growth through learning, skills, engagement and talent management has long been the perfect blend for a thriving workforce. In today’s fast moving and constantly evolving workplace, continuous learning is the cornerstone of organisational success. The conference themes will explore how fostering a culture of learning can enhance employees’ skills, resulting in a highly engaged, motivated and talented workforce. By prioritising learning and development, organisations not only equip their teams to tackle future challenges but also nurture and retain the invaluable talent within their ranks.
Through SIX keynote sessions, including the popular panel discussion, the Conference will identify key strategies to create impactful learning experiences, align skills development with business goals, and build a people-first culture that celebrates and retains top talent. Delegates will leave inspired to make learning a strategic advantage, ensuring their workforce remains resilient, innovative, and ready for the demands of tomorrow.
This years’ conference experience will serve as a call to action for HR leaders and practitioners to unlock the potential of their people by making learning a central pillar of talent management, engagement and retention.
Experts will also deliver transformative insights on critical topics such as workforce resilience, the rise of AI in HR & Recruitment, strategies for attracting and retaining top talent, and the evolving role of DE&I within corporate culture.
Speakers from a wide range of award-winning organisations, who have successfully embedded these strategies in their organisation and have created and implemented a sustainable plan to develop future talent and leadership through learning and skills, will discuss how they succeed in tough market conditions and an ever-changing world of work.
