6: HR Masterclass: Measuring Our Impact on the Business

All business functions need to deliver on measurables and HR is no exception. HR metrics can include engagement, retention, attraction, gender pay gap, overdue reviews or D&I. So, how can HR professionals go one step further and deliver impact? This was the topic for our most recent GRN Masterclass. Kindly hosted by ICAEW, London on 10th December, members were treated to insights from both Higher Education and Inhouse recruiters by Lynne Hamilton-Gow from ICAEW and Ami Bartrip from Metaswitch. Jenny from GRB did a fantastic job opening and chairing the event and also welcoming for the very first time our livestream viewers who are based outside of London. In attendance to hear these insights were senior HR managers from forward-thinking recruiters such as Amazon, BDO, Knight Frank, Liberty, John Lewis Partnership and Siemens. After an engaging Q&A session, GRN members were enlightened with practical advice to go back to their teams and their next board meetings. So, what were some of the key takeaways?

Every March, June, September and December we invite up to 30 members to a GRN Masterclass event in the City of London. We spend two hours hearing brief presentations from University Heads of Careers, researchers, thought leaders and practitioners and then spend the majority of the time discussing and debating the key issues.
