Georgia Kelaher is a leadership coach for senior leaders in fast-growth and transforming businesses. When a company grows faster than its leaders do, it shows up in slower decisions and stalling execution — and for the leader, in wavering confidence and second-guessing what used to come easily.

Georgia works on both sides of that gap: one-to-one with capable leaders leading as who they think they should be rather than who they are, and alongside executive teams, with diagnostics and clear measures so the business can see the shift.

A former Global Chief People Officer who rebuilt her own leadership through burnout, she helps capable people lead as themselves, with the confidence and clarity to move forward.

The people function has been rebuilt twice in a decade, from back-office HR to people operations, and AI is now rewriting the workflow again. The tools and the expectations have raced ahead of what most people leaders were trained for.

Georgia Kelaher hosts five leaders who each see a different part of the modern people stack: pay, the core HR platform, performance, hiring, and global talent. They'll name what has changed in their patch, where people leaders are getting caught out, and what to build now to lead through the future of the role they're all seeing come to life in front of them.

What you'll leave with:

1. A clear read on where the people function has actually landed, and which parts of the workflow have genuinely shifted rather than just been re-badged.
2. An honest account of where the role has outgrown the people leading it, including mistakes the panel has watched play out first hand.
3. A short list of what to build, learn or let go of over the next two years, practical enough to act on the week after the summit.
