The EU Pay Transparency Directive is now in force. But the most important question is not only: “Are we compliant?”
It is: “What do we want to build from here?”
Pay transparency introduces clear regulatory obligations. It also creates a strategic choice: treating it as a compliance exercise, or using it as an opportunity to rethink how organizations manage people, pay criteria, career progression, trust, and internal communication.
Join us on 7 July 2026 at 13:15 CET for a 45-minute Webinar Café by Birn+Partners Team Italy: An open conversation with those who are already working through this transformation.
Together, we will explore three key questions HR Directors, CEOs, and leadership teams are facing right now:
1. Criteria and progression
How can organizations redefine pay and advancement criteria so they are clear, consistent, and defensible, both internally and externally?
2. Trust and communication
How can leaders communicate change, support managers in difficult conversations, and build a sustainable culture of transparency?
3. People strategy
How can compliance become a lever for attraction, retention, and long-term organizational culture?
This will not be a traditional presentation. It will be a conversation. Participants’ questions, challenges, and real cases will be part of the content.
Open questions. Open microphones. No mandatory slides.
Voice from the field: Ornella Sala, HR Director
Ornella will share reflections and practical choices from an organization already moving along this path, not a polished success story, but an authentic view of a journey in progress, with its complexities, decisions, and lessons learned.
Key takeaways:
Practical perspectives on how to move from pay transparency compliance to people strategy
Concrete reflections on criteria, progression, communication, and trust
A peer-to-peer conversation with leaders facing similar challenges in different contexts
Operational insights you can bring into your work immediately.
Whether you are an HR Director, CEO, executive leader, or people manager, this Webinar Café will help you look at pay transparency not only as a regulatory requirement, but as a strategic opportunity to strengthen the relationship between the organization and its people.
This webinar will be held in Italian.
