Most organisations say culture matters. The tougher question is whether it contributes meaningfully to growth, performance and competitive advantage. In this candid panel discussion, senior people leaders will explore where culture creates measurable business value and where it can become a barrier to progress. Drawing on experiences from financial services, technology, housing and other high-performance environments, panellists discuss the link between culture, inclusion, leadership and organisational success, sharing practical examples of what they’ve seen work in practice. The conversation tackles one of the most challenging questions facing HR leaders today: if culture deserves investment, how do we demonstrate the return?

Panel: Heidi Khoshtaghaza-Hay, Group HR Director, Bellway Homes, Harsh Vekaria, Group Head of Culture Transformation, Lloyds Banking Group, Clémence Jacqueri, Former Head of People, IMC Trading and Joanne Vazquez-Kirby, Head of DEI, Skyscanner

Chair: Cindy Yendell, Senior Partner, ZRG’s Consulting Solutions
