Driving Organisational
Performance:
HR’s Critical Role
– Stockholm
In-Person | Wednesday 28 May 2025
Stockholm, Sweden
15.00 – 18.00 CEST (followed by dinner)
Event
Business performance has to be delivered at the organisational, business unit, team and individual level. Management and HR often focus on the individual and spend too much time and money designing and redesigning the appraisal process, which in reality has little impact on overall business performance.
Considering the organisation as a whole, this event will explore what HR should focus on to actually shift the needle on business performance. Attendees will leave with a clear idea of what is meant by performance (good and bad) and the levers that HR can use to drive superior performance for the organisation.
Learning Objectives
- Apply an evidence-based methodology and framework to the use of performance management in your organisation.
- Deepen your understanding of what is takes to create a high-performing environment and the levers HR can pull to drive superior organisational performance.
- Examine financial and non-financial performance measures and the importance of both.
- Gain insight from renowned professors, leaders and HR practitioners across sectors on where HR should focus in order to deliver higher business performance.
- Evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of key perspectives on the link between HR and performance.
- Understand the conditions under which HR is most likely to impact organisational performance and how these conditions apply to your own context.
Who is this event for?
HR Leaders and specialists with responsibility for performance management, organisational effectiveness and creating a high-performance culture.
