The future of work and its impact on the employee experience is one of the most pressing business issues of our collective lifetimes. As we emerge from the global pandemic, companies large and small are wrestling with how to support employee engagement and their demands for sustained flexibility and remote work, while maintaining healthy business results. In this highly interactive workshop, we’ll help participants understand how they can unleash the productivity, satisfaction and engagement of their people while thinking ahead to what’s next in the workplace.

Part discussion, part hackathon, participants will leave energized to revolutionize the employee experience at their own organizations. We’ll begin with a discussion of the new world of work, exploring the many factors that have changed the way people approach their jobs and what this means for IC and HR professionals. We’ll then highlight actionable ways to inspire brilliance from employees in the new world of work. Armed with these strategies, we’ll launch into the most exciting part of the session—a future of work “hackathon.”

Participants will be divided up into small teams, each with a specific engagement challenge. Each team will have time to discuss their challenge statement and design a solution. When time’s up, each team will have 2 minutes to present their concept, and we’ll select a winner. The winning team will get a very cool prize (but everyone’s a winner because all participants will walk away with tools and ideas to bring back to their work)!
