This programme is taking place in-person across two-days with a follow-up action day. The cost to attend is £2,995 (+VAT) for CRF members and £5,990 (+VAT) for non-members.
Unlock HR’s Strategic Potential: Transform Your Function into a Catalyst for Organisational Success
The business landscape is evolving rapidly and the expectation for HR to deliver measurable business outcomes has never been higher. While our existing development programmes for HRBPs and HRDs focus on individual career growth and leadership impact, Mastering Strategic HR: Driving Organisational Performance goes beyond personal development to redefine HR’s contribution to organisational success. This immersive two-day experience equips senior Business Partners and HR leaders with the tools and frameworks to elevate their function’s impact on business performance.
This course focuses on the collective and systemic influence of HR on organisational goals. It is not just about enhancing individual capabilities; it is about empowering HR teams to align strategically, overcome barriers and drive measurable performance outcomes across the business.
Key Differentiators
- Organisational Impact-Focused
- Where other programmes centre on individual growth, this programme equips participants to directly link HR strategies to critical business metrics such as profitability, productivity and customer satisfaction.
- Strategic HR Transformation
- Tailored for senior HRBPs ready to move beyond tactical execution, participants learn to position HR as a strategic partner shaping the organisation’s future.
- Practical Tools for Real-World Results
- From evidence-based HR to strategic alignment frameworks, attendees leave with actionable insights ready for immediate implementation.
- Collaborative Learning and Actionable Plans
- This programme fosters a dynamic environment where participants co-create solutions to shared challenges and leave with both individual and organisational roadmaps for transformation.
- Follow-Up for Sustained Impact
- A unique follow-up session ensures learning translates into tangible results, reinforcing application and long-term impact.
Why Send Your Team?
For HR leaders with limited budgets, this programme is an investment not only in the individual but in the organisation. Participants return equipped to:
- Break down silos between HR and business strategy,
- Drive enterprise-wide performance improvements,
- Embed HR initiatives into the culture for sustained results.
Indeed we would encourage participants to share their learning with the wider HR team on their return to embed the learning and deepen the organisational impact.
