Episode notes
How do you assess, monitor and build a culture that actually lasts?
And more importantly, how do you prove investment in people to a CFO?
I’m joined by Nebel Crowhurst, whose career spans Virgin Atlantic Holidays, River Island, Roche (100k employees, during Covid), and leading the People function at Reward Gateway through its $1.3bn acquisition.
She’s seen culture at scale. Under pressure. Through hyper-growth. And through to the UK’s first HR Tech unicorn.
We get into the real relationship between CFO and CPO, and why HR leaders must speak commercial language to earn (and keep) their seat at the table.
