The role of HR

Mark Stevens | Provident Financial Group

“Big businesses are good at articulating “the what” that they’re trying to achieve, whether that’s financial or customer target. But they often forget “the how” you achieve those targets where values play a big part – and there’s a role here for HR.”

Dave Buglass| Tesco Bank

“HR is probably one of the least agile functions in the world. We as a function have got to be more disruptive, more curious and we've got to be more commercial with what we do”

Sarah Dickins | Provident Financial Group

“Because of the rate at which businesses are transforming, I think there’s a really important role for HR to play to make sure that the organisation is ready for that change”
