This Month: Turning Up the Heat on Talent

Welcome to a snippet of this month’s edition, where we’re diving headfirst into all things talent- the people kind, not the Britain’s Got variety. If you missed our latest live webinar, don’t panic, we’ve got the replay ready and waiting. It’s packed with practical tips on how to modernise your talent strategy, ditch the jargon, and actually make succession planning work (without putting everyone to sleep).

We’ve also rounded up some great resources to help you tell your talent from your performance, your OD from your HR acronyms, and your podcasts from your blogs. Plus, Lucinda’s been busy on the mic exploring what really motivates people and why onboarding should be more “welcome party” than “paperwork marathon.” And if that’s not enough, we’ve thrown in a few dates for your diary this August because who doesn’t love an excuse to celebrate International Cat Day?
