About the Event
We invite you to join us in a conversation on how changes in power, responsibility and relatedness are radically reshaping the workplace of today. The definitions and expectations of work and task are being impacted by DEI and social justice, polarization, remote work / return to work, unionization, and the advancement of Artificial Intelligence capabilities. Together we will explore the future of work from multiple lenses and experiences. We invite you to join the conversation and share experiences, thoughts, and ideas as we offer a space for inspiration and for new insights to emerge.

We welcome all who are interested in the future of work.
