The talk: The Hidden Risk in PeopleOps: How Health Disruption Impacts Productivity, Talent and Growth

Workforce health risk is one of the most overlooked business risks facing STEM, biotech and innovation-led organisations. When people become unwell, projects stall, deadlines slip and critical expertise becomes unavailable. Drawing on over 30 years across health, social care and international development, Angela reveals how PeopleOps leaders can identify hidden vulnerabilities, reduce health-related disruption and strengthen workforce resilience in a post-Covid, AI driven world.

The Talk: Thriving in times of uncertainty

Uncertainty is a constant in today’s workplace, with myriad external factors, restructures, shifting policies, workforce anxieties, and the need to make decisions without clear information, the list goes on. Yet how we navigate uncertainty often comes down to something deceptively simple: the conversations we have.

Together, we'll explore what distinguishes the conversations that help us move through ambiguity from those that leave us and others more stuck. You'll leave with practical insights you can use for yourself and with your colleagues to build a stronger feeling of thriving rather than just surviving through uncertainty.
