About this event
- Event lasts 6 hours 30 minutes
Join the Scottish HR Leadership Group for a dynamic, future-focused conference that brings together leading voices in policy, business and HR to explore how we prepare our organisations, and ourselves, for the world of work in 2030.
Designed specifically for senior HR professionals, this event is built around one clear goal: solving real business problems through the power of people. It brings together strategic insight and practical application, so you leave not only inspired but equipped.
The day opens with future-focused keynotes exploring the major forces transforming the world of work—from AI to economic turbulence—and the critical role HR must play in navigating them. You’ll then hear how HR and business leaders are partnering to deliver measurable impact in areas like workforce transformation, inclusion and talent strategy.
In the afternoon, a high-energy hackathon, co-designed with CIPD, puts you in the driver’s seat. You’ll collaborate with peers to co-create solutions to the most pressing challenges of the decade ahead, with expert input and real-time feedback from industry leaders.
If you’re looking for an event that challenges your thinking, exposes you to thoughts and experiences from leading Scottish CPOs, and connects you with a community of forward-thinking HR leaders—this is it.
This event has been designed for HR professionals, by HR professionals, ensuring that every session delivers relevant insights and practical takeaways that you can apply directly in the workplace. You’ll be joined by 120 peers on the day from a wide range of HR roles, sectors and company sizes. In past years, we’ve been joined by delegates from Tesco Bank, NatWest, Highland Spring, Scottish Ballet, National Galleries of Scotland, DC Thomson, Arnold Clark and Scottish Enterprise.
Pay it Forward Scheme
We believe great ideas should be shared, and that financial barriers shouldn't stand in the way of professional growth. That's why we're introducing our Pay it Forward scheme. This initiative allows delegates to sponsor a place for another HR professional whose organisation may not have the budget to attend this year.
By contributing, you're not just supporting a peer; you're strengthening the wider HR community. Every sponsored place helps ensure diverse voices and experiences are part of the conversation shaping the future of work. As a thank you for your generosity, we’ll recognise your support in our formal conference programme and give you a shout-out on our LinkedIn channel, tagging your company to highlight your commitment to the profession.
