“With an external environment that is changing rapidly, companies need to be more agile in placing resources where they matter the most.” [McKinsey, 2023]
People are the defining asset and cost in your organisation. For enterprise-sized firms, optimising resources – from employee task assignment to strategic sales targeting – is essential for achieving operational excellence. But given, 40% of enterprise CEOs believe their organisation will no longer be economically viable in ten years’ time if they continue to operate on its current course, [PwC, 2023], there is still work to be done.
The challenge is, achieving operational excellence whilst navigating the complex interplay between evolving business needs and diverse employee capabilities is akin to conducting a symphony with numerous instruments, each playing its own tune. This struggle is pervasive, with a staggering 68% of organisations lacking a workforce planning strategy [PwC, 2023], leading to inefficiency, employee burnout, and poor performance.
Getting this right will enable organisations to thrive during turbulent times. Join us as we debate how enterprise firms can successfully align their workforce with ever-changing business demands.

OUR SUSTAINABILITY PLEDGE
We’re committed to supporting our society and environment. When you attend a Change Makers Club event, we pledge to neutralise your carbon footprint. To offset your travel or energy usage we will plant a tree via One Tree Planted. Once mature, the average tree has a net absorption of 30 kg of CO2 per year, which equates to 227 miles of travel by car or 96 hours of office usage. You can see our maths here.
