Operational Resilience & Cyber Risk | Embedding a Security Culture
Hackers aren’t breaking in, they’re logging in. When speed of getting things done is crucial, even for companies with the strongest controls the weakest link in the chain is always human. IBM says cyber attacks have a long tail: on average 200 days of disruption before even considering ongoing reputational damage.

As AI moves from concept to reality, many organisations are struggling less with the technology itself and more with its impact on people and culture. This session focuses on the practical and human challenges of AI adoption: anxiety about job security, confusion over future skills, and a growing divide between “AI insiders” and the wider workforce. We will consider how poorly managed implementation can erode trust, disengage employees, and undermine organisational values and what we can do to avoid that eventuality.

As AI agents and humanoid robotics move from science fiction to the boardroom, the traditional boundaries of HR and IT are beginning to blur. Stuart Evans, Director of Future of Work & Digital Employee Experience at Rolls-Royce, suggests we are witnessing a collision course that may eventually merge the CIO and CHRO into a single, unified role: The Chief Work Officer.
