Guidant Global

McKinsey recently highlighted AI fluency as a capability organisations can no longer ignore. The bigger question: what happens when AI, skills shortages and workforce expectations converge? That’s the conversation we’ll be exploring next Wednesday in Sydney at Guidant Global’s Next Workforce Era event, focused on helping HR, procurement and workforce leaders build strategies fit for what comes next. Registrations close today. If you’re an HR or procurement leader looking to workshop these challenges with peers, reserve your place now.

That's CWS Summit Europe 2026 done. One thing came through louder than anything else on our stand: the question leaders are asking has changed. Not "how many people do we need?" but "what outcome are we buying, and how do we know it was delivered effectively?" Headcount is quietly stepping back as the primary metric. Services procurement, and outcome-based engagements are stepping forward. The organisations moving fastest aren't the ones hiring differently. They're the ones approaching work differently. That's the shift Guidant is built for. Less about the numbers of workers. More about the work itself: scope, quality, compliance, delivery, and outcome. Thanks to everyone who stopped by to chat to our team for the honest conversations!

Day one at CWS Summit Europe was fantastic, the team had some brilliant conversations and connected with so many people across the industry. And now, onto day two. The conversations are still going strong as we continue connecting with workforce leaders, sharing ideas, and exploring what’s next for talent, technology, and strategy. If you’re attending today, come and find us at Booth 5 - we’d love to continue the conversation.

Our very own Thomas DeFabrizio - CPA, MBA, CGMA, MSA is at the FEI Leaders Forum in San Antonio and already dropping gems on day two. The “Reaction Tax” is one of those ideas that sticks. The cost a company pays when it finds out about a problem too late. CFOs across industries are wrestling with exactly this as AI reshapes how finance teams work and where the real value sits. Proud to have Thomas representing Impellam Group on a stage like this.

Good news for anyone travelling into London for CWS Europe this week. The planned Tube strikes have been suspended for now, which should make meeting up in person a little more straightforward for everyone. We look forward to connecting, continuing conversations and seeing many familiar and new faces over the next few days.   Stop by and see us at Stand 5. See you there. https://lnkd.in/eRCUzRvU

From the Podcast: What Great Leadership Really Looks Like Great leadership isn’t about titles, authority, or being the loudest voice in the room. It’s about how you show up for people. In this clip, Patricia shares why empathy, integrity, communication, and values-led behaviour are at the heart of truly impactful leadership. “If you don’t have people who show up with empathy and values, you won’t get great leadership.” The best leaders don’t just drive performance - they create environments where people feel respected, supported, and motivated to succeed. 🎧 Watch the clip for a powerful perspective on leadership in today’s workplace: https://lnkd.in/gziw8dtD #Leadership #PeopleLeadership #WorkplaceCulture
