As we approach the summer break, I’ve been reflecting on one of the most important questions facing leaders today, particularly those in senior HR roles:
Is your organisation setting a sustainable pace of work?
It’s no secret the way we work has changed. The pace at which we work has accelerated, breaks have reduced, boundaries are blurred, and the flow of work is constant.
All of which means it is increasingly important for HR leaders, people managers and the c-suite to consider how you can lead at a sustainable pace and allow yourself and your teams a chance to rest and recover. This is essential to maintaining resilience and performance.
The Sustain Collective: A New Development Space for HR Leaders
I believe the next evolution of leadership, particularly in HR, is going to be about sustainable high performance.
It’s not just about helping your people to perform, it’s about helping them to sustain that performance, without burning out.
And that starts from the top.
I’m excited to announce a new initiative that I’m launching alongside my friend and colleague, Tom Emery: The Sustain Collective.
How The Sustain Collective Supports HR Leaders
This isn’t just another leadership programme. It’s an exclusive, high-impact learning space for senior HR leaders, including HR Directors and Chief People Officers, and those navigating the complex realities of people leadership at scale.
In The Sustain Collective, we will explore:
- The paradox of wellbeing and high performance, and how to master balance between the two
- How to lead at a sustainable pace and create a culture of sustainable high performance
- The mindset shifts needed to move HR from reactive to strategic
- Tools for leading with clarity and influence, ensuring you and your organisation achieve sustainable success
This is a collaborative space, where HR leaders come together to share ideas, exchange insights, and support one another to shape the future of work, not just keep up with it.
