Cultural Transformation - Real HR with Sarah Trowell of 7IM

This week, Lucinda is in conversation with Sarah Trowell, Senior People & Culture Partner at Seven Investment Management LLP (7IM), about her award-winning cultural transformation program, her career journey so far, and the innovative practices being used at 7IM in order to create impactful cultural change. KEY TAKEAWAYS There are always things to learn in the HR space. There are always ways in which we can improve and innovate, which makes the sector extraordinarily exciting. The five year vision is to create an environment where colleagues feel understood, empowered, and valued, thereby allowing them to deliver an unrivalled experience to clients, and to each other. Simply providing answers to questions is faster and easier, but is also rather more short-sighted. If we coach others to seek out answers for themselves, we empower them for the better. Delivering new initiatives are one thing, but adopting them and implementing them on a foundational level, is another. It is not enough to simply come up with new ideas. We have to see them through. BEST MOMENTS 'I'm genuinely still learning' 'The change from human resources to people and culture is just another example of how, as a business, we are modern' 'The business feels different' 'In swimming up stream and not drowning, you think to yourself, "I can do this"' VALUABLE RESOURCES The HR Uprising Podcast | Apple | Spotify | Stitcher   The HR Uprising LinkedIn Group How to Prioritise Self-Care (The HR Uprising) How To Be A Change Superhero - by Lucinda Carney HR Uprising Mastermind - https://hruprising.com/mastermind/   www.changesuperhero.com www.hruprising.com       Sarah Trowell LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarahdsmith1?originalSubdomain=uk ABOUT THE HOST Lucinda Carney is a Business Psychologist with 15 years in Senior Corporate L&D roles and a further 10 as CEO of Actus Software where she worked closely with HR colleagues helping them to solve the same challenges across a huge range of industries.
