International HR Forum
Resourcing those involved in HR to serve people in God's mission
Who is it for?
This forum brings together those involved in international HR and cross-cultural mission. Many are qualified HR professionals, others new to personnel-related work. It is for anyone with roles in recruitment, placement, training and people support.
The main focus is on helping to improve HR practice, especially in relation to mission partners serving outside the UK. The forum also provides excellent networking opportunities to meet with others involved in HR departments. Speakers are invited to provide insight and training on particular issues. The forum meets twice a year, usually in May / June in London and November on Zoom.
Areas that have been covered recently include: Handling Difficult Conversations, Managing Change, and Creating a Feedback-Rich Culture.
The Chair of the steering group is Becky Hembery (BMS World Mission), other members of the group are David Leek (MAF UK) and Alex Wiltshire (Global Connections).
