True People Focus - with Morna Bunce

Lucinda is joined by Morna Bunce, the CPO of Stowe Family Law, to discuss the culture that the company has managed to implement, how keeping people at the heart of matters, we create happy, functional organisations, and how she is leading through innovation by elevating her own career vision to boardroom level. KEY TAKEAWAYS HR has long been seen as something transactional - generally where people go to receive their wages, and to book holiday. However, the world is changing, and the role of HR has now become the human facing side of the business itself. We must seek to articulate, to our managers, what our own vision for our career looks like. Make yourself heard and keep yourself in the conversation. In HR, people are much more willing to share ideas and information. It can be incredibly useful to network with others, to share visions, and to hold our ideas accountable. It's important to talk about the commercial elements of the business to our people, but it shouldn't be the whole conversation. We must keep their needs and issues at the heart of conversations. BEST MOMENTS 'HR has always been where my interest was' 'We are a people business, and we see that as an investment' 'We must show, through our delivery, what we are capable of' 'Collaboration makes everybody's working life better' 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          Morna Bunce LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/mornarose/?originalSubdomain=uk Find out  more about Actus 360 NOW here: Actus 360 NOW General Landing Page: https://pages.services/info.actus.co.uk/actus-360-now/?ts=1644830927010 About The Guest Morna has more than 15 years’ HR experience, developing her career alongside the growing family law firm, Stowe Family Law.
