Good Hunter - June 2025

Building Cultures That Prioritise People, Purpose and Performance

Work is changing and so is the role of business in people’s lives. More than ever, workplaces have the opportunity to become spaces where people grow, feel well, and find meaning in what they do. This session will explore how leaders can build values-aligned cultures that support both people and performance.

We will explore how to embed purpose into your business and align it with everyday decisions, how flexibility and autonomy can be used as powerful tools for real productivity, and why wellbeing and burnout must be treated as strategic business issues rather than just HR concerns. We will also look at how to create environments where people can thrive while performing, and gain deeper insight into what today’s workers are really seeking in their roles: growth, connection and a sense of contribution.

Joining us for this conversation is Natalia Sawran-Smith, Senior Consultant at B Corp certified TalentWeb. Natalia brings a wealth of experience working closely with purpose-driven businesses to reshape the way we think about work, culture and talent. With her insights from both consulting and practice, Natalia will share what she’s seeing firsthand across a wide range of organisations that are actively reimagining leadership, wellbeing and the future of work.

This is an invitation to reflect, reimagine, and lead with care. Together, we can build a future where business helps people thrive and communities flourish.

What to expect

Over Sherwood coffee and breakfast nibbles, we meet to explore the big questions shaping the future of business, guided by guest topic experts who bring fresh insights and perspectives.

This isn’t a sit-and-listen event. Good Hunter is a space for real conversations. We invite contribution, curiosity, and challenge, making each session an opportunity to think critically, share experiences, and leave with practical ideas.

Our partnership with B Lab brings a focus on impact measurement and the principles of the B Corp movement, balancing profit and purpose, leading with integrity, and measuring impact beyond financial returns.

We’d love to see you there! 🚀
