Hable

We are pleased to today announce a major milestone for Hable: the appointment of our very first Chief Impact Officer.

The role will be taken on by Nicki Harman, who brings almost a decade of experience at Hable. Since joining initially in 2017 as a Strategic Change Manager, Nicki has gone on to lead our Change Management practice and, most recently, shape our Services business as Services Director where she has built a truly world-class ACM delivery team.

As AI accelerates the pace of change across every organisation, we know that new, fresh approaches are needed. So, as our new Chief Impact Officer (CIO), Nicki will provide thought leadership and industry insight for our customers and commercial partners, while ensuring that Hable remains laser focused on helping organisations to realise real ROI from their investment in technology.

Everyone at Hable wishes Nicki the absolute best of luck in this new role.

We're giving away Hable water bottles for 2026! 💧

At Hable, we often talk a lot about the power of 1% gains. Small actions that, over time, lead to meaningful change. Choosing a refillable water bottle is one of those actions!
On its own, it may feel small and insignificant. But multiplied across teams and organisations - it adds up to real environmental impact.

So, to celebrate World Refill Day today, we’re excited to be giving away some of our brand new Hable water bottles!

The iconic green Hable bottle has evolved over the years, and this is the latest! A new design, now made from fully recycled stainless steel.

Fancy getting your hands on one?

We are delighted to welcome Joanne Lloyd to the team as our new Finance Manager!

She joins us as a fully AAT qualified professional with over 20 years of experience in finance, across both commercial and not-for-profit organisations.

“I was drawn into Hable's values, their approach to inspire learning, and how they drive new ways of working by empowering others,” she says. “It aligned perfectly with what I was looking for next in my career.”

Outside of work, she enjoys walking, swimming, and has recently taken up yoga!

Welcome Joanne! We wish her the best of luck as she gets settled in...

It's fantastic to be onsite at the University of Manchester this week, where we're running a two‑day Copilot event!

From leadership and Copilot Champion sessions to our drop‑in Copilot Bar, it’s all about helping people get real value, fast.

Great to see such a positive response so far and looking forward to another fantastic day today 🚀💚

Being part of a world-first is special... 💚

We're incredibly proud to be partnering with the The University of Manchester on its rollout of Microsoft 365 Copilot, becoming the first university in the world to provide licences to all students and staff.

Working alongside Microsoft, we are helping to drive widespread Copilot adoption across the university, while building people's confidence in using the technology.

That confidence is crucial to unlocking true value from AI. As it helps staff and students move beyond experimentation and integrate Copilot into their every day work.

This is a truly collaborative programme, demonstrating what's possible when you combine the latest technology with great people, the right support, and engaging learning opportunities.

Last week, we supported 5,000 people with Copilot. In one week.

Across multiple customer projects, 5,000 people around the UK last week joined a Hable learning session at work. With our Learning Consultants not just helping people learn what Copilot is, but how to actually use it to make a difference to their day-to-day roles.

That’s 5,000 people now working with more confidence and clarity.

So proud to be helping shape new ways of working among some of the UK's most prestigious organisations 💚🚀

Fantastic to be involved in the Microsoft Healthcare Showcase event in Paddington yesterday!

Our Change Manager, Becky - who has been instrumental in the success of our partnership with UKHSA - joined Trisha Rawat and Richard Black to discuss the challenge of deploying 7,000 Surface devices to staff in just three months, while staying focused on user experience and making sure people felt supported every step of the way.

Great to share the success story, and show what happens when you put people at the heart of digital innovations!

Huge thank you to Lily Baxter & James Nobbs for hosting.

It was a brilliant day yesterday as the team behind one of our biggest public sector projects came together to kick off phase two!

After a successful first year, we're delighted that the customer has extended their partnership with Hable to continue driving their digital transformation forward.

Next, we’ll be focusing on strengthening information management practices - combining our comms and change expertise to embed sustainable ways of working across the organisation.

Great to be continuing this journey, and even better to get the team together with Stephen, Steph and Georgie to get things underway!
