Many TA leaders want to be strategic partners but day-to-day demands often keep them stuck in delivery mode. This session explores what really enables the shift from reactive order-taker to trusted advisor, and why influence, commercial thinking, and stakeholder management matter as much as hiring delivery.

 

Through shared experience and practical discussion, this networking morning will help TA teams reflect on where they’re spending their time, how they’re perceived by the business, and what small changes can unlock greater impact and credibility.

 

What you’ll learn:

  • What business leaders expect from TA beyond filling roles
  • How to build trust and influence with senior stakeholders
  • Practical ways to elevate your role without losing operational grip
