Lucy has a wealth of experience in the HR sector, stretching across a number of different business’ including the BBC. She is an expert in disruptive HR and constantly strives to help companies find new solutions to old problems.

She created the Disruptive HR Agency to combine strategic and operational HR expertise with a fresh but practical approach. Lucy aims to put the “human” back into Human Resources. After having held senior level HR roles in a variety of sectors she grew frustrated with the lack of innovation and fresh thinking in the HR profession and wanted to find new ways of tackling old problems.

In speeches, Lucy discusses how to deliver real change within a large, complex organisation, and why it isn’t always popular; balancing the need for quick decisions with possible moral backlash about severance, and issues relating to employee engagement. She states that in an uncertain world, many accepted ideas of leadership aren’t up to the job and by looking at everything from management theory to neuroscience she considers fresh perspectives on leadership, employee engagement and management organisation. Lucy also addresses how businesses can deal with public scrutiny and the nature of leadership and change in organisations.
