Join Globalise at the Gulf Coast Symposium on HR Issues - Houston, 5–6 August 2026

HR Professionals are under more pressure than ever to deliver measurable results with tighter budgets, leaner teams, and higher expectations for employee experience.

That's exactly the conversation we're having at the 2026 Gulf Coast Symposium on HR Issues in Houston, USA - a gathering of 1,400+ HR professionals focused on intentional leadership, purposeful HR, and meaningful results.

Globalise will be speaking and exhibiting, and we'd love to see you there.

Our Speaker Session:

Thursday, 6 August | 8:30 AM | Mezzanine Level 2: 610

Globalise Founder and CEO, Peter Holland, will present:

Achieving More with Less – How to Create Competitive Advantage through Strategic HR & Process Improvement

If you've ever felt that HR is asked to do more with less, while rarely being first in line for new funding or ERP systems, then this session is for you. Peter will tackle the questions many HR Professionals are wrestling with right now:

  • How do we improve efficiency and cut manual work?

  • How do we reduce costs without compromising compliance and the employee experience?

  • How do we make the case that HR deserves investment?

From Cost Center to Profit Center

Global Payroll doesn't have to be a cost center - it can become a genuine driver of value. Peter will walk through a practical framework for getting there:

  1. Discovery Phase

    – Identifying the factors that are critical to your HR project aims.

  2. Process Refinement

    – Building a leaner process with clear metrics to track and improve efficiency and effectiveness.

  3. Continuous Improvement

    – Defining the elements and analytics that keep the gains coming, extending impact well beyond HR and into other divisions.

It starts with HR, but the ripple effect goes further than most HR Professionals expect into Finance, Tax, Accounts Payable, Expenses, IT, Operations, and 3rd party suppliers. This can then create an ongoing virtuous cycle, where early savings fund further savings, and momentum builds on itself. A win-win!

Come Say Hello

Whether you catch the talk or not, we'd welcome the chance to talk through your own HR and payroll challenges in person.
