Based around the idea of leverage and the organising works model that was imported from the US, and adopted wholesale by many unions and the TUC, at the turn of the centry, dispute escalation and resolution has evolved from traditional negotiating tactics.

With the Employment Rights Act (ERA) set to reshape access, recognition and information rights from 2026, these trends are converging — and putting real pressure on HR, ER and leadership teams to build new levels of capability. Many of whom haven’t been in the room when negotiations have taken place.

What’s becoming clear is that the environment organisations are moving into will demand far more than procedural knowledge. It will require strategic communication, political awareness, negotiation psychology, and a far deeper understanding of how organised groups influence outcomes.

These are not only HR and industrial relations skills. They are core public affairs skills.

A more coordinated, campaign-led workplace

Workplace representation today is evolving into a more externally supported model, where organising, communications and public pressure operate together.

For many organisations, this is unfamiliar terrain.

Traditional employee-relations frameworks — built around process, procedure and internal dialogue — don’t always provide the tools leaders need to navigate:

• multi-front issue escalation
• coordinated campaigns
• increased scrutiny
• digital mobilisation
• narrative pressure from external actors

This is the same environment public affairs teams work in every day.
And it’s why public affairs capability is becoming increasingly relevant to HR and industrial relations leaders.

Insights from training: what HR teams are struggling with

In a recent training session I delivered with industrial relations specialist Brian Boyd, Head of Industrial Relations at NG Bailey, it was clear that many HR professionals are encountering negotiation and representation dynamics they’ve never seen before.

Common challenges included:

1. Moving from reactive HR firefighting to proactive engagement

Most organisations address issues only when a dispute emerges. Effective engagement requires relationship-building from day one — a principle long understood in public affairs, but forgetten in HR where an informal chat or coffee could head off many issues before they got started.

2. Managing the psychology of negotiation in tense, high-pressure environments

Modern disputes aren’t just about terms and conditions. They involve emotion, identity, leverage, narrative and timing.

3. Understanding the new obligations coming under the Employment Rights Act

The ERA will expand access rights, adjust recognition thresholds and introduce new information rights. HR teams will need a strategic grasp of what this means in practice.

4. Protecting organisational relationships, stability and reputation

Disputes now move across internal and external arenas. Decisions taken in a negotiation room can quickly become issues on social media, in local press or in stakeholder networks.

5. Maintaining control of your narrative when issues escalate across multiple fronts

This requires public affairs thinking — clarity of message, anticipation of counter-narratives, understanding audiences and managing reputational risk.

Why Public Affairs Training Is Becoming Essential for ER and HR Leaders

The overlap between industrial relations and public affairs has never been greater.

Modern organising often looks like a political campaign:

• alignment of actors
• coordinated advocacy
• strategic communications
• stakeholder mobilisation
• external pressure leveraged against internal decisions

This means HR teams increasingly need the same capabilities public affairs professionals use:

• stakeholder mapping
• scenario planning
• message discipline
• narrative control under pressure
• political awareness
• strategic influence and negotiation
• anticipation of external leverage points

Organisations that understand this shift will be far better prepared for the ERA and the more dynamic landscape emerging around it.

What This Means for Leaders Preparing for 2026

2026 is just round the corner.

The ERA will introduce legal obligations — but the wider environment will introduce strategic challenges. Organisations that invest now in employee relations capability, public affairs training, and strategic communications skills will have a significant advantage.

Leaders need to build expertise in:

• ERA-readiness
• modern union engagement strategies
• high-stakes negotiation
• public affairs capability building
• stakeholder management
• narrative and reputation management
• scenario-based crisis planning

This is no longer just an HR issue.
It is a leadership, communication and strategic-competence issue.

Support for organisations preparing for the ERA and the new workplace landscape

I work with organisations, agencies and public affairs teams to strengthen their capability through:

• Tailored employee relations training
• Public affairs training for consultants and in-house teams
• Scenario-based negotiation and influence workshops
• Strategic communications and narrative-control training
• Capability-building programmes

If your organisation is preparing for the changes coming with the Employment Rights Act 2026, or if your public affairs or HR teams need to build confidence in an increasingly coordinated and dynamic environment, I’m always happy to discuss bespoke training or leadership sessions.

2026 is just a month away — and the organisations that invest early will be far better positioned when the new landscape arrives.

For public-affairs professionals, this isn’t just political noise.
It’s a live case study in how leaders behave under institutional pressure — and why public affairs training is now essential for organisations trying to navigate fast-moving, unpredictable environments.

The first lesson is simple: when political leaders feel cornered, they often compensate by moving into domains where they can act unilaterally. Trump’s foreign-policy announcements came within hours of being publicly outmanoeuvred by Congress. Rather than refocus on affordability — the pressing domestic issue affecting his base — he sought a theatre where he could project strength without legislative constraint.

Understanding behavioural shifts like this is a core component of effective public affairs training. Organisations need to recognise when policy announcements are strategic, when they are reactive and when they are designed purely to reassert authority. We need to understand the hard wiring behind the policy shift.

The second lesson relates to political alignment. Trump’s base is driven by affordability concerns: mortgages, energy prices, wages and food bills. Yet his post-Epstein pivot was entirely foreign-policy focused. When leaders stop speaking to their electoral coalition, they create openings for opponents and for legislative institutions to reassert themselves.

This matters for anyone working in government relations or corporate public affairs. Policy direction isn’t just shaped by ideology — it is shaped by where political capital is strongest or weakest at any given moment. Training teams to map these shifts in real time is now a fundamental capability. Like on the FT’s Political Fix podcast when the presenters trade share prices on politicians – who’s up and who’s down depending on events.

The third — and most important — lesson is institutional. Trump’s reaction has reinforced a growing view in Washington that Congress is prepared to act as an active check on the executive. The Epstein vote wasn’t simply about transparency. It was Congress testing the boundaries of its power. And Trump’s dramatic pivot to international grandstanding has strengthened the case for further constraints across defence, foreign affairs and appropriations. This is an odd move for Trump because geopolitical uncertainty and unreliability is one of the key drivers behind Congress’s decisision to try and restrain and constrain Trump and these announcements will likely embolden US policy makers.

For organisations working in regulated sectors, this means the centre of gravity in policymaking is shifting back toward the legislature. Effective public affairs training helps teams anticipate where decision-making authority sits — and how to build strategies that engage committee chairs, bipartisan coalitions and oversight bodies, not just the executive branch and those in its immediate orbit.

The wider message is clear: public affairs success requires a far deeper understanding of political psychology, institutional dynamics and the motivations that shape leadership behaviour. It’s not enough to follow policy announcements — you need to understand what drives them, what they signal, and how stakeholders are likely to respond to them.

As Washington enters a period of high tension between the branches of government, investment in public affairs training won;t be viewed as ptional on K Street. It’s strategy – the foundation for navigating risk, protecting organisational interests, and influencing policy outcomes in a rapidly shifting landscape.

At the time, I was a union press officer — the person who answers the phone when the world catches fire. What unfolded was more than an industrial dispute. It was a masterclass in how political communication strategy, leverage and listening collide in real time.

Understanding the Stakeholders Behind the Story

What struck me most that weekend wasn’t the disruption, but who was driving it.
These weren’t tabloid caricatures of “union militants.” They were educated, professional women — many former cabin crew — who relied on tightly choreographed family logistics and the informal “tarmac transfer” of childcare between shifts.

The swipe-card system disrupted that delicate ecosystem. What appeared to management as a minor administrative update carried major personal implications. The issue wasn’t technology; it was trust, autonomy and respect. Any effective political communication strategy begins here: understanding how a technical change refracts through human experience.

Lessons in Leverage — Economic, Reputational and Organisational

The Heathrow walkout revealed multiple layers of leverage:

Economic Leverage

Every grounded aircraft meant millions lost — across aviation, retail and the wider economy.

Reputational Leverage

Images of queues and chaos dominated the news cycle, applying rapid brand pressure.

Organisational Leverage

Professional and technical staff — often overlooked in traditional organising — discovered their collective voice.
This was a pivotal moment for unions and employers alike: influence could arise from unexpected parts of the workforce.

For public affairs teams, the episode remains a case study in understanding where power sits, how it moves and how quickly the narrative can shift. These are the same dynamics that underpin modern political communication strategy and campaign planning.

From Crisis Response to Strategic Training

Today, those same lessons shape the training I deliver for Business Forums International (BFI) on Working Effectively with Trade Unions.
Participants — HR leads, senior managers and public sector directors — face a new era of employee activism, where culture, respect and fairness matter as much as pay. You can register here https://bfi.co.uk/training-events/1-working-effectively-with-trade-unions-training-course/

Our programme explores:

• How leverage really works — economic, political and reputational.
• How to listen strategically and spot issues before they escalate.
• How to communicate with clarity and confidence when the pressure rises.
• How to build constructive, long-term relationships with unions and employee reps.

Case studies — including that unforgettable BA weekend — help leaders understand how good industrial relations combine empathy with analysis, and how political communication strategy can guide moments of high pressure.

The Human Edge of Political Communication

Technology provides organisations with unprecedented data. Yet influence still relies on something far older: empathy, trust and meaningful relationships.
The leaders who balance leverage with listening — who treat disputes not as threats but as inflection points — are the ones who build resilient organisations prepared for political, reputational and workforce risk.

A modern political communication strategy is not just about messaging. It is about reading the room, respecting the people in it, and shaping decisions that stand up under scrutiny.

The post Political Communication Strategy: Lessons in Leverage first appeared on Westbrook Strategy.

AI Can Inform, But People Inspire

AI can analyse sentiment, track stakeholder networks or predict political shifts. What it cannot do is connect. Successful public affairs depends on emotional intelligence — understanding what motivates decision-makers and what matters to the people they represent.

Human insight interprets the nuance that data alone misses. A trained public affairs professional can read the tone of a minister’s speech, the mood of a room or the cultural undercurrent behind a policy debate. These are moments along with strong personal relationships and an understanding of context that shape influence and they require empathy, the ability to frame an argument and experience.

The CIPR’s 2023 report into AI Tools and the Impact on Public Relations Practice suggested that we risk ‘sleepwalking into a technological future’, which is fine as long as we get the balance right and find ways to build in human interaction, especially for digital natives.

Trust Is Built on Relationships, Not Algorithms

Public affairs is fundamentally about relationships. As my training programmes emphasise, influence depends on credibility, transparency and consistency — qualities that technology can support but never replicate.

AI tools may streamline outreach or refine messaging but trust grows through human engagement: a well-judged meeting, a transparent conversation or the reassurance of shared understanding. Policymakers, clients, and colleagues alike respond to authenticity — something no machine can manufacture.

The Future Belongs to the Human–AI Partnership

Rather than replacing professionals, AI is amplifying their potential. The leaders who will thrive are those who blend data-driven intelligence with human sensitivity. In practice, that means:

• Using AI to gather insight, but relying on people to interpret and act on it.
• Automating reporting, while focusing human time on strategy and storytelling.
• Letting technology scale communication, while ensuring tone and empathy remain unmistakably human.

The organisations that strike this balance will communicate with both precision and heart — and their influence will last.

Conclusion

As AI becomes ever more capable, the defining advantage will not be who has the best technology, but who uses it most humanly. The future of public affairs, communication and leadership belongs to those who combine intelligence with empathy and data with judgement.

Explore how our Public Affairs Training and Leadership Communication Courses can help your team harness technology without losing the human touch.

Yet while consultancies invest heavily in tools, research platforms and client development structured training often is inconsistent or reactive. That’s a mistake. Strong training programmes create capable consultants — and capable consultants mean better client relationships, higher retention and more predictable revenue.

For senior leaders deciding how to allocate budgets, the real question is: where should training focus to deliver the best return?

Understanding the Skills Journey

Every consultant develops through three main stages:

1. Thinking Skills – learning how to research, analyse and understand how politics and policy really work.
2. People Skills – learning how to influence, negotiate and build trust with clients and stakeholders.
3. Judgement – learning how to connect the dots, anticipate issues and give confident strategic advice.

Training should evolve as people progress. New entrants need to learn the basics and the culture. Mid-level consultants need to learn how to lead, advise and think ahead.

1. New Entrants: Learning How the System Works

What they need: grounding in politics, institutions and the unwritten rules of influence.

Most new consultants arrive bright and eager but unsure how government and decision-making actually operates. They may know the theory but not the practice — how departments work, how policy gets shaped or how to write for clients.

Training should cover:

• How Parliament, government and local authorities function.
• How to identify stakeholders and build influence maps.
• How to use research tools to monitor policy and regulation.
• How to write clear, persuasive briefings and reports.
• Professional ethics and standards in lobbying.

This early investment builds confidence, reduces mistakes and speeds up the time it takes for new hires to deliver value.

2. Mid-Level Consultants: Learning to Think and Lead Strategically

What they need: the ability to interpret events, manage clients and make sound judgements.

By this stage, consultants are no longer just collecting information — they are expected to turn insight into strategy. They need to understand political intent, assess risk and advise clients under pressure.

Training should cover:

• How to shape strategy and manage complex stakeholder networks.
• How to combine data, story and context into compelling advice.
• Scenario planning and political risk assessment.
• Working with the media and managing messages under scrutiny.
• Commercial awareness: client growth, budgeting and profitability.

Training at this level should blend case studies, mentoring and real-world simulations that test decision-making and judgement.

3. Why It Matters to the Organisation

For the leadership team, training isn’t just about staff development — it’s about business performance.

Firms with structured learning pathways consistently show:

• Higher client satisfaction due to consistent quality of work.
• Lower staff turnover because people see a future in the organisation.
• Better commercial performance as consultants spot opportunities earlier.
• Reduced risk through better compliance and consistent messaging.

In short, good training converts individual expertise into organisational capability — something that stays within the firm even when people move on.

The MD and COO View: Training as Business Infrastructure

For senior executives the key insight is this: in public affairs your people are your product.

Investment in training is not a cost — it’s the foundation of your value proposition. In a world of AI-driven analytics and rapid political change, the firms that win will be those whose consultants combine data insight with human judgement and emotional intelligence.

Training creates that blend. It keeps your firm sharp, credible and trusted in front of clients and policymakers alike.

Conclusion: From Learning to Leadership

Public affairs is ultimately about influence — and influence depends on skill, credibility and trust.

New consultants need to master the basics. Mid-level consultants need to master context and leadership. Senior management needs to make training a strategic priority that turns individual talent into a shared asset.

The message for leaders is simple: in public affairs, training isn’t a cost — it’s strategy.

I know it’s not even Halloween, but we need to start thinking about 2026. As a new year hoves into view the political and policy environment across the UK and Europe is entering a defining phase. A year into a new political cycle, with economic recovery pressures, important local elections and digital disruption reshaping communication, public affairs training has never been more strategically important. For organisations seeking to influence policy, manage risk and protect reputation building capability within teams is now the ultimate differentiator.

Navigating a New Political Landscape

Effective public affairs teams will need to interpret the evolving political and regulatory landscape, not just react to it. As explored in Running Effective Political Campaigns, success depends on the integration of research, mapping, strategy, messaging, tactics, and measurement — turning complex change into clear action.

In this mutating environment training builds the experience and judgement to identify emerging issues and understand political intent and align organisational goals with the direction of policy i.e. figure out what the government wants and shape your messages to show how you can help them get it.

From Political Awareness to Strategic Engagement

Going into 2026 public affairs professionals will be expected to operate as strategic partners that provides experience and the ability to think on their feet rather than a prompt on ChatGPT. Westbrook Strategy’s training programmes are designed to equip teams with the foresight and fluency needed engage effectively with policymakers and regulators and build relationships over time.

Influence in 2026 will depend on sustained engagement — creating a network of allies across government, business and civic society rather than relying on episodic lobbying and just popping up when you need something.

Integrating PR and Public Affairs in a Digital Era

The boundary between public relations and public affairs continues to blur. With digital campaigning now central to political influence, the ability to integrate media, messaging, and stakeholder outreach is critical.

As outlined in our Integrated PR and PA course, effective campaigns sit at the “sweet spot” where insight, strategy, messaging and tactics sit together. Westbrook’s approach helps organisations:

This integration ensures that corporate voices remain credible, agile, and responsive in an era where public sentiment can shift in hours.

Building Future-Ready Capability

Public affairs training in 2026 is about readiness. It’s about building teams capable of operating confidently in a fragmented media environment and a fluid policy context.

Those who invest in developing their people now will benefit from:

• Stronger institutional memory and political literacy.
• More effective cross-sector collaboration.
• Greater resilience to reputational and regulatory challenges.

At Westbrook Strategy, our programmes go beyond theory — we help professionals translate insight into influence. Because in 2026, knowing how politics works won’t be enough. The organisations that thrive will be those that know how to work politics strategically, ethically, and with measurable impact.

Once, Britain had a common soundtrack. From the Beatles and the Stones to Live Aid and Britpop, the arts gave us collective moments. Even when we argued about politics, we recognised the tune. Streaming changed that. Personal playlists replaced public ones. The abundance of choice technology promised has dissolved the sense of national discovery that prizes like the Mercury were meant to celebrate.

From the Booker of music to the age of metrics

The Mercury Prize began in 1992 as a thoughtful alternative to the BRIT Awards — a “Booker Prize for music” dreamed up by industry leader Jon Webster and music sociologist Professor Simon Frith, who helped design its judging ethos.

I once had a university tutorial with Frith, who said, half in jest, that when he was young they worried about the overthrow of capitalism — whereas by the 1990s they just worried about what was to be included in the English curriculum. It was a brilliant confession that even the rebels had been absorbed by the institutions they once challenged.

That quip has stayed with me because it captures our cultural journey: from revolution to revision, from subversion to strategy meeting. The Mercury, conceived as a prize for the uncompromising, now has to prove that excellence still matters in a world ruled by clicks.

A hometown win with national meaning

Holding the ceremony in Newcastle — and awarding it to a Newcastle-born artist who writes about working-class life, economic stagnation and community pride — gave the evening an unexpected symmetry. Fender’s songs resonate because they treat ordinary lives as worthy of epic treatment. His win was a quiet rebuke to the idea that “the North” produces either grievance or novelty.

Britain’s cultural funding still tilts toward the capital. Opera houses and galleries soak up subsidy while regional theatres and local papers close. The result is resentment — a sense that “culture” belongs to someone else. The Mercury’s northern debut offers a modest correction, suggesting that excellence is not a postcode privilege.

Authenticity and its imitators

In politics, “authenticity” has become performance art. Figures such as Nigel Farage and Donald Trump prosper not because they are honest but because they sound unfiltered. Populism uses the same tools as the creative industries — the edit, the clip, the viral share — to turn grievance into belonging.

If cultural institutions want to rebuild trust, they must learn from that without copying it. Real connection requires proximity, not pandering: commissioning locally, sharing decisions, and reflecting lived experience rather than abstract ideals drafted in Soho boardrooms.

Building new communal moments

Technology isn’t the enemy; apathy is. YouTube and TikTok already host thriving communities around folk, grime and jazz. The challenge is to connect those micro-cultures to public institutions that can give them permanence. Short-form content may spark discovery, but long-form storytelling still builds empathy — and empathy is democracy’s raw material.

When a John Lewis Christmas advert moves millions, it’s because, for a few days, the nation feels something together. The Mercury Prize can still do that: remind us that artistry is not just content, and that listening together is an act of citizenship.

Towards a new settlement

Reconnecting Britain’s cultural life will take more than touring ceremonies. It means re-imagining how we fund and value the arts. Every region should have a claim on the national story. Re-investing in local journalism, community theatre and small-venue touring would do more for cohesion than a hundred marketing campaigns.

Culture cannot replace policy, but it can create the empathy that policy cannot buy.

When Fender lifted the trophy in Newcastle, he showed that Britain hasn’t lost its capacity for shared meaning — it just needed a stage outside the capital. If that becomes the Mercury’s new tradition, then a prize founded to celebrate authenticity might finally help a divided nation find its voice again.

At Westbrook, we believe that the rise of AI makes human-to-human training more valuable than ever. As algorithms take over routine work, it’s the ability to listen, persuade, empathise and lead that determines who thrives. These are the skills that don’t just survive automation — they power it.

The paradox of progress

AI has revolutionised how organisations deliver learning. Coaching chatbots can role-play interviews, algorithms can identify skill gaps, and virtual classrooms can reach global audiences at a fraction of the cost. Yet despite this digital revolution, the World Economic Forum, Harvard Business School and countless employers agree on one thing: soft skills have never been in greater demand.

That’s because no matter how advanced technology becomes, workplaces still run on trust, communication and creativity. A chatbot can generate talking points — but it can’t read a room. A dashboard can analyse campaign data — but it can’t win hearts or shift opinions.

When I train teams in public affairs, communications or presentation skills, the breakthrough moment rarely comes from the slides or theory. It happens in conversation — when a participant realises how they sound under pressure, how their story lands, or how they can adapt to different personalities. That’s not something AI can replicate.

What AI can’t teach

AI can simulate empathy, but it can’t feel it. It can mimic leadership behaviours, but it doesn’t inspire trust. And it can certainly give feedback on tone or body language — but it can’t tell when someone’s confidence is shaken or when a team needs encouragement rather than critique.

Soft skills depend on context, subtlety and lived experience. They are learned through interaction, not instruction. That’s why person-to-person training remains indispensable — especially in communication disciplines, where emotional intelligence and situational awareness make all the difference.

A good trainer or coach brings curiosity, humour and real-world examples. They can sense tension in a group and adjust the pace; they know when to push and when to pause. Above all, they create a space where people feel safe enough to experiment and make mistakes — the foundation of genuine learning.

Blending technology with the human touch

This doesn’t mean ignoring AI. Quite the opposite. The most effective learning programmes now use a blended approach — combining digital convenience with human depth.

At Westbrook, we often build training journeys that begin with short online modules or self-assessment tools. Participants use AI-powered platforms to practise presentations or stakeholder conversations. Then we bring people together — virtually or in person — for live workshops and coaching sessions.

The result is a model that scales efficiently while preserving what really matters: connection, feedback and shared experience. AI handles the data; humans handle the development.

This hybrid model is gaining ground across industries:

• Consultancies use AI to analyse clients’ stakeholder maps but still rely on consultants’ empathy and persuasion to win trust.
• Tech firms train engineers in collaboration and communication because innovation happens in teams, not spreadsheets.
• Healthcare organisations use virtual patients to simulate difficult conversations — but always debrief with a human facilitator who guides reflection and builds confidence.

Each example proves the same point: AI can enhance learning, but it cannot own it.

Training for the new workplace

In the communications and public affairs world, this balance is particularly critical. AI tools are now excellent at scanning legislation, drafting key messages or mapping influencers. What they can’t do is build the relationships, judgement and creativity that turn insight into impact.

Our training reflects that reality. Whether we’re delivering Presentation Skills, Public Affairs 101, Campaign Strategy, or New Business Development, every session focuses on applying learning in real time. We use live role-play, peer coaching and scenario-based exercises to mirror the pressures of real-world communication — because the best way to learn influence is to practise it.

AI can give you the facts; person-to-person training gives you the feel. It’s what allows a spokesperson to handle a hostile interview with confidence, or a policy lead to brief a minister with clarity and calm.

What the research shows

Studies back this up. A 2024 global survey by Wiley found that 80% of workers believe soft skills are more important than ever in an AI-driven workplace — and nearly all agreed that AI will never replace the art of communication. Harvard research reached the same conclusion: as automation increases, social and emotional skills become the foundation for learning everything else.

Forward-thinking organisations are acting on this insight. They’re not cutting back on training; they’re doubling down on human-led development. They use AI to gather insights and personalise learning paths, but they invest their energy in coaching, mentoring and collaborative workshops — the spaces where people actually grow.

The Westbrook approach

At Westbrook, we call this the human edge. It’s about equipping professionals to use technology confidently without losing authenticity or connection. Our three-stage framework combines:

1. Knowledge – understanding the strategic and political context.
2. Application – practising real-world scenarios through role-play and feedback.
3. Reflection – one-to-one coaching and peer discussion to embed change.

This approach ensures participants don’t just learn skills — they own them.

The future is hybrid, but the focus is human

AI will keep changing how we work, learn and communicate. But people will always learn best from other people — through stories, dialogue and shared experience.

That’s why person-to-person training isn’t a nostalgic throwback; it’s the competitive advantage of the AI era. Machines can inform us. Only humans can inspire us.

If your organisation wants to build the confidence, adaptability and impact your teams need to thrive alongside AI, talk to us about a tailored training programme.

Because in a world of intelligent machines, it’s our human intelligence — emotional, social and strategic — that sets us apart.
