Disruptive HR

22/10/2026

Being an HRBP can be one of the most demanding roles in HR. It can also be one of the most influential.

You’re expected to understand the business, help leaders work through difficult people challenges and know when to coach rather than take over.

Our four-week HRBP Programme helps you build the skills to do that with more confidence. Across four live sessions with Lucy Adams and Karen Moran, we’ll explore consulting, coaching and influencing, alongside practical approaches to performance, talent and influencing leaders.

You’ll also get three months’ access to the Disruptive HR Club to keep learning and putting the ideas into practice.

The next programme starts on 5 November. Find out more amusing the link in bio 🔗

Imagine you’re an HR Business Partner supporting a Commercial Director whose division is under pressure.

Performance has plateaued, deadlines are slipping and the leader believes getting everyone back into the office will help. They want HR to create a clear policy.

But is office attendance really the issue?

In our latest article, we look at why business partnering is so hard, what might be sitting underneath a leader’s request and how HRBPs can navigate complex decisions where there is no obvious right answer.

Want to build on your HR business partnering skills?

Our four-week virtual HR Business Partner Programme with Lucy Adams and Karen Moran explores consulting, coaching and facilitation to help you strengthen your influence and impact. It also includes three months of membership to the Disruptive HR Club.

Being a great HR Business Partner takes more than knowing your HR stuff.

You need to understand the business, build relationships with leaders, challenge their thinking and help them make better people decisions.

And that's not always easy when you're the person everyone turns to with their latest people problem!

Our HR Business Partner Programme is designed to help you build the confidence and skills to work differently.

Across four live online sessions, we'll explore how to:

⚡ Build your commercial understanding and confidence
⚡ Use consulting and coaching skills to move away from being the fixe
⚡ Challenge and influence leaders, even when the conversations are difficult
⚡ Bring fresh thinking to performance, talent and how work is changing

Led by Lucy Adams and Karen Moran, the programme combines practical tools, real examples and the chance to learn alongside HRBPs from other organisations.

Starts 5 November 2026 | Four weekly 90-minute sessions

You'll also get three months' access to the Disruptive HR Club.

If AI can do more of HR’s traditional work, what will we be valued for?

If we define our role by the policies we hold and the processes we manage, AI will increasingly be able to take on some of that work.

There’s an opportunity for HR to spend more time making sense of messy situations, exercising judgement and helping people make better decisions.

That means thinking differently about the skills we build and where we put our time.

Does your day in HR feel like a relentless stream of questions from managers?

“Can I do this?” “What’s the policy?” “Can you just have a word with them?”

On 14 October, I’m joining Claire McLean from Realise HR for a practical conversation about making HR simpler in small and medium businesses, hosted by Bharat Siyani from Breathe.

We’ll explore how to help managers handle more people issues themselves, with greater confidence, better judgement and a bit of help from technology and AI.

So you can spend less time answering the same questions and more time on the work that makes a difference.

Join us live on 14 October at 10am, and bring your questions for the Q&A.
