Innovation Forum on 9th May
The Sandyford Innovation Forum is dedicated to exploring the latest thinking, strategies and innovations. Our fourth annual Innovation Forum ‘Recruitment & Retention – The Battle for Talent’ explored how companies build their teams through non-pay strategies like employee wellbeing programmes, Corporate Social Responsibility and flexible and remote working. Held at the Pavilion, Leopardstown Racecourse, facilitated by Adrian Weckler (Technology Editor – Irish Independent and Sunday Independent),
    and featuring a stellar line up of speakers including representatives from HireUp, Great Place to Work, Business in the Community Ireland, Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council, Vodafone and Cubic Telecom, the event proved to be our most successful Innovation Forum to date.

 This Breakfast Seminar held in The Pavilion, Leopardstown focussed on ‘Understanding Diversity and Inclusion in the Workplace’. The line-up included first-class speakers Fania Stoney of Great Place to Work, Sharon Vize of CPL, and Joanne Hession, founder and CEO of LIFT Ireland. The LIFT programme in Sandyford was officially launched at the event on behalf of Dún Laoghaire- Rathdown County Council.
LIFT Ireland’s highly effective leadership
  programme provides the structure for encouraging all employees to identify and solve problems in a coherent collaborative manner
towards continuous improvement. The Council also supports the LEAN programme which involves identifying and reducing waste in processes that deliver value to customers.
