Event description

Join us for a thought-provoking panel discussion examining the relationships between effective leadership, emerging technologies, and workforce productivity in the UK financial services.

🗓️ Mon 6th Oct

🕛 09:30-12:00

📍 EQ Bristol, 111 Victoria St, Redcliffe, Bristol BS1 6AX

The event will focus on the productivity challenges facing UK financial services - a sector with higher-than-average productivity levels, yet one experiencing a sharper decline in recent years.

We’ll explore the impact of legacy systems, regulatory demands, and workplace culture on employee output, and ask whether rapid advancements in AI - often hailed as a productivity game-changer - will deliver meaningful change.

Crucially, we’ll also consider how “productivity” is being measured. Are traditional metrics still fit for purpose in the evolving world of work in 2025 and beyond?

Join us for a frank discussion where our expert panellists will dive into these questions and more.

Topics Will We Cover
  • How do we measure productivity in financial services?

  • The real-world potential (and limitations) of AI and automation in driving productivity

  • The role of leadership in driving cultural change and long-term productivity gains
