CPO Connect - The Future of Performance

3rd September 2025

The world of performance management is shifting – and fast. With Employment Law changes on the horizon for 2026, now’s the time to take a fresh look at how performance is being driven, managed, and experienced inside your organisation.


This edition of CPO Connect is for business and people leaders who want to future-proof their approach and build a fairer, more robust performance culture.
We’re partnering with Michael Briggs, Partner and Head of the Nottingham Office at Shoosmiths, to bring you sharp, practical insight on what’s changing – and what that means for your people strategy.

Together, we’ll explore:
• What ‘performance’ actually needs to mean in 2026 and beyond
• The link between fairness, trust and sustainable high performance
• Where traditional performance management is falling short – and what to do instead
• How to prepare now for upcoming employment law changes
• What best-in-class looks like – and how to get there

This is more than just a legal update. It’s about challenging the way performance is approached across your business – and equipping you to lead with clarity, fairness and impact.
