Topics, Sessions And Talks
The workplace has shifted from a 9-to-5 on-site model to a flexible hybrid one, pushing companies to accelerate technological changes and support both office and remote environments while maintaining an inclusive culture. In this keynote, New York Times bestselling author and workplace expert Dan Schawbel demystifies the hybrid work model based on his research of 2,000 executives and employees. Using case studies and real-world examples, Dan guides companies in making better hybrid work decisions to boost engagement, productivity, and retention. Attendees will learn practical tactics for evolving their work model, benefit offerings, hiring practices, and collaborative approaches.
Over the past few years, leaders and their employees have experienced an immense amount of physical and mental trauma due to the global pandemic. And although the mass acceptance of remote work has given employees more freedom and flexibility, it has come with a significant cost to their well-being. Organizations come to Dan when they need to know how to react to monumental shifts in the workplace ecosystem to be prepared for what’s next in the modern economy. Well-being is already at the forefront of the new movement to a better and more human workplace — is your organisation ready for what’s next?
With the rise of new technologies, automation, and a disruptive global economy, the modern workplace is rapidly evolving. Companies now face significant challenges in business operations and talent competition. In this presentation, Dan Schawbel will reveal top workplace trends that will transform your business perspective, prepare you for the future, and enhance your talent management strategy. Attendees will learn the implications of each trend, see case studies of companies already adapting, and receive actionable tips to lead in this new era. Schawbel, who has published an annual list of workplace trends for 12 years, bases his insights on extensive research and executive conversations.
