5 Defining Challenges of 2026
Reserve your spot
How are you handling today’s world of work?
If we’re being honest, things feel chaotic for everyone: AI is accelerating change, layoffs are eroding trust, and skills expectations are shifting. And amid all of this, leaders are being asked to do more with less.
But another valid question is: Have you considered how your employees are experiencing these challenges as well?
Enter the 2026 Humans at Work Global Barometer Report
Join George Rogers and Lynette Silva Heelan to unpack 5 defining challenges emerging this year across industries and workforces – from job insecurity and invisible high performers to the evolving “employee deal,” deskless divide, and tension around what can be automated.
You'll leave with:
- Research findings on what employees are experiencing
- Guidance for how to discuss these issues internally
- Practical response strategies for HR and business leaders
Bonus: Attend the live airing to qualify for 1 SHRM PDC.
