Succession planning is no longer just about filling roles - it’s about future-proofing your organisation in an era of rapid change. The traditional approach to succession often focuses on job titles and transitions, but modern succession planning must align with organisational risk, skills development, and measurable talent outcomes that drive real business value.

In this practical session, we’ll explore the mindset, strategies, and frameworks that set high-performing organisations apart when it comes to developing their next generation of leaders and critical talent.

In this webinar, we’ll explore:

• **Considerations for modern succession planning:** why today’s landscape demands a shift in approach and how to design succession strategies that are strategic, dynamic, and resilient.

• **Mitigating risk:** how to identify vulnerabilities in your talent pipeline and put safeguards in place that reduce organisational exposure.

• **Maximising ROI on your Talent Management:** techniques to ensure your talent investments deliver measurable impact and support long-term performance.

• **Skills and Succession Planning:** aligning skills-first strategies with succession to build capability at every level.

You’ll also have the opportunity to ask questions in our live **Q\&A** session and walk away with practical takeaways you can apply straight away.


Who's Next: Solving the Succession Crisis in Today's Workforce

Our working world is transforming faster than companies can adapt with AI rewriting how skills, roles, and workflows are managed at lightning speed. 

Yet, even amid this environment of accelerating disruption and imperfect data, business leaders are still expected to make confident decisions.

This is because we’ve entered an era of fundamental uncertainty. A socio-economic environment where uncertainty is so fundamentally ‘normal’ that instead of resisting or absorbing change in the hope of returning to a sense of stability, organisations now need a type of 'antifragility' - an operating system that can not only withstand disorder, but relish and grow within it.

# So how can we do this?

Introducing **Workplace Elasticity**. A new, improved and future fit version of HR and business agility which integrates people strategy, business strategy, and AI to equip organizations with the capability to bend, stretch, and re-form at speed.

In this thought-provoking session, **Natal Dank**, author of Agile HR and Agile L\&D, reveals her latest insights on workplace elasticity. Drawing from the vision of **Industry 5.0**, she explores how leaders can make conscious, proactive choices that bring humans and technology together to create sustainable, co-intelligent systems.

Through the dual lens of **people strategy and business strategy**, this talk unpacks the practical ingredients of workplace elasticity — from product-led HR models to T-shape skills mapping and cultural playbooks that foster resilience, creativity, and connection.

This is not just about surviving the future of work — it’s about shaping it.

With tax thresholds frozen for six years and more people being pulled quietly into higher tax bands, Salary Sacrifice is becoming one of the most important tools employers can offer.

Salary sacrifice is often seen as a technical payroll process, but in reality it’s one of the most effective ways to unlock real savings. It helps employees keep more of what they earn while delivering meaningful cost savings for businesses. The opportunity is there, but the window to act is closing.

From April 2029, National Insurance (NI) relief on workplace Pension Salary Sacrifice will be capped at the first £2,000 of contributions. Until then, employers and employees can still benefit from full NI savings. This creates a clear, time-limited opportunity to review arrangements and act.

# In this webinar, we’ll explore:

• Why frozen tax thresholds are changing the real value of pay

• How salary sacrifice works and where the biggest gains sit

• What the 2029 cap on pension contributions means in practice for employers and

employees

• How much value is still available before the window closes

• What employers should be reviewing now to avoid missing the opportunity

This session focuses on the practical, financial impact of Salary Sacrifice, particularly with pension contributions. We cut through jargon to show how employers can offer smarter benefits that genuinely help people make their pay go further, while delivering measurable savings for the business.

What do the Titan submersible tragedy, underperforming teams and toxic workplace cultures have in common? In each case, people knew something was wrong. And in each case, those concerns didn’t travel far enough, fast enough, or safely enough. Psychological safety is sometimes seen as a cultural “nice-to-have”. In reality, it’s the mechanism that determines whether organisations learn early, or find out the hard way.

**The same dynamic plays out quietly in workplaces every day:**

In 1:1s where people soften the truth.

In engagement surveys that don’t quite reflect reality.

In development conversations where real needs stay unmentioned

**In this webinar, we’ll explore:**

• What psychological safety actually is (and what it isn’t)

• How everyday leadership behaviours unintentionally silence people

• How a lack of safety distorts feedback, performance insight, and decision-making

• What organisations can do to influence psychological safety at scale

Using high-profile failures alongside everyday organisational examples, this session focuses on how psychological safety shows up in real management conversations, and why it matters for performance, risk, and trust.

Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) are one of the most powerful, yet often misunderstood levers for building culture, belonging and engagement.

In this one-hour session, we’ll explore **why ERGs matter**, the **benefits they bring to employees and organisations**, and **how to set them up for success** without over-burdening passionate individuals or creating performative activity.

This webinar combines **strategy, lived experience and practical guidance** to help you move from good intentions to meaningful impact.

Whether you’re starting from scratch, resetting existing networks or looking to strengthen belonging across your organisation, this session will give you clarity, confidence and actionable insight.
