DRAFT FOR REVIEW

14. Conclusions – What has been most important?
Connecting with our business leaders – we spent 2 days designing and 4 months socialising with the top 20 in the organisation
Connecting our colleagues to an approach rather than a process or a system – we launched a system, but we rarely talked about it. We didn’t want to distract people from the key part which was the approach.
Connecting the design and the delivery arm – Group HR to Divisional HR
