Transformations succeed when driven by people. HR leaders are essential in this journey. Without HR’s partnership, the critical human aspects of change and organisational nuances can be missed.

​

With HR at the table, your organisation will have the right culture and processes in place to help people embrace change and unlock its full benefits.

​

Our MD Chris Tomlinson hosted a webinar with guests Estelle Hollingsworth, Chief People Officer (CPO) of McArthurGlen Group, and Jack Tabak, former EVP HR at Shell. Together, they explored how HR can support complex transformations. 

​

In this article, we take a look at some of the key insights they shared, gathered over many years working on complex, global transformation programmes, including:

​

• Lead rather than manage: HR needs to lead change by influencing organisational decision-making and cohesion.

• Simplify complexity: Set clear, shared goals and metrics and communicate them regularly to keep everyone going in the same direction.     

• Prioritise culture: Make sure your values aren’t lost in a transformation and create a distinctive workplace culture that people can align and engage with in uncertain times.

• Use technology strategically: Identify technology that will help achieve your business goals and support people to get the most from new digital tools.

 

As experienced HR leaders at the top of their profession, Estelle and Jack both know what it takes to implement a transformation that fully considers the people at its core, and how and why that delivers a return on investment.
