Perry as speaker
Perry Timms is a 2x TEDx speaker, 6x HR Most Influential Thinker (#1 in 2022, Hall of Fame 2023), and Semco-style Self-Management Expert. He keynotes progressive world-of-work events across the globe — TEDx Bucharest, HR Fest Budapest, and dozens more.
Perry's newest work: an entirely new operating system for work. Beyond divisions, into spaces where work lives. Teams that oscillate between legacy and future. Effectiveness Flywheels. Shape-shifting as the new strength.
The HR Operating Model reimagined — from Perry's 2025 Kogan Page book. How the People function turbo-charges organisational performance in a turbulent operating environment.
20+ years of practice distilled: diagnosis, dialogic exchange, design and deployment. Systems Thinking, Design Thinking and performance mechanics fused for a specific organisation.
Beyond WEF and OECD reports — what the workforce actually needs next. Foresight, forecasting, and the automation/AI conundrum unpacked for real practitioners.
Semco-style, WorldBlu-certified, RenDanHeYi Top-50 — Perry lives this. Squads, teal, self-management, dispersed leadership, and how to introduce them in any sector.
