The ability of senior HR leaders, not just HR Business partners, to initiate and manage strategic conversations is becoming a critical skill, requiring a comprehensive understanding of the wider business and a perspective that extends well beyond their functional expertise.

This Webcast will draw on recent research from The Conference Board to explore the content and issues these conversations should encompass. Critically, the Webcast will also explore what ‘earns’ senior HR leaders the right to speak to the wider business strategically and who is the most likely audience.

Contributors to the Webcast will draw on the informed opinion of top HR executives and the best practice adopted by Top 500 companies. They will also set the need for more strategic conversations in the context of TCB’s ongoing research on Next Generation for HR.

After attending this webcast, you will be able to:

• Understand the characteristics of successful strategic conversations between HR and the wider business.
• Think about your own organization’s context and need for more strategic conversations.
• Appreciate how strategic conversations should fulfill a range of purposes and achieve key benefits for HR and the business.
• Identify effective strategies for further developing the skill of strategic conversation among your HR leadership talent.
