Kate is a highly experienced HR leader and has held various roles at Adaptalift Group since 2012, currently overseeing 650 staff in her role as HR Chief.

She is a champion of flexible executive roles, balancing part-time leadership and parenting, something that became almost non-negotiable during the COVID pandemic.

In the full Masterclass, we talk about:

✅ The secret life of HR professionals…the real, messy and rewarding reality in the current business environment.

✅ How leading from the middle builds influence, trust and a seat at the strategic table.

✅ Navigating burnout, boundaries and part-time leadership through parenting and a modern lifestyle, and

✅ HR's growing leadership in AI strategy and how this links to company strategy and and what "buy, borrow, build, bot" means for HR.

Stay epic,

Greg
