No other conference takes interactivity to the next level like HR360. Don’t fall asleep during long presentations, get

involved in the discussions, maximise networking and find real solutions to your burning challenges.

We’re only human – long presentations put us to sleep

Breaking the mould of traditional

presentations, our presenters will share a best

practice case study before challenging you to

have a go at finding a solution to an

unresolved industry challenge. You’ll then

engage with your peers on a small interactive

roundtable to take away different approaches

to the same pain point.

A more rigorous, creative and interactive

approach to tackling the critical challenges

you face today. Collaborate with 11 of your

peers to determine a new 3-step action plan

to take back to the office and test. Share

your experience, challenge the norm and

ultimately find an innovative way forward

from the collaborative brain power in the

room

Page 13: Re-Inventing HR. Together - IQPC Corporate · Revolutionising talent attraction and retention strategy in times of digital innovation and disruption Institute, Moderated by: Mervyn

Fully engage with the most contentious issues

facing HR. Sit back and witness industry-leading

figures pitting themselves against each in a

battle to deliver the knockout argument. Then,

continue the debate in your own small

roundtable groups. Will you reconsider your

position?

Your opportunity to join a high level brainstorm

with 25 like-minded industry leading figures to

determine optimal ways to better drive business

value. Turn theory into practice – create a step by

step action plan to tackle this issue by evaluating

competing ideas and putting the best solutions

forward

Design the conference agenda yourself and

bring to light the next big opportunity or

challenge that you’ll be facing in your

organisation. Live tweet your most burning

questions to a panel of experts and leave no

stone unturned! A unique opportunity to

prepare for the next big step-changes in your

industry

PLUS, join the high class drinks

reception on 8th June and over 11

hours of additional networking during

the breaks!
