Sustaining organization performance through relentless change

Speaker – John McGurk

The current global economic context has made sustainability even more crucial for all organisations. Shaping the future is a flagship project, which extends the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development’s decade-long research effort on high performance working. Using research on six case studies CIPD adviser Dr John McGurk explains the emerging evidence under the broad themes of leadership, engagement and organisational development. In this interactive and provocative session practitioners will gain real insight into the most critical of future capabilities: the capability for sustainable organisation performance.
