2026 HR Predictions: Agility, AI, and the Future of Leadership ODW

The employer-employee dynamic has flipped. Economic changes have swung the pendulum back to organizations, leaving employees feeling the crunch. Engagement is falling, career pathways feel jammed, and managers are stretched thin.

We know that when people thrive, organizations thrive–so what happens when people aren’t thriving?

In this webinar, we share six predictions for how work will change in 2026 and explore opportunities to turn today’s biggest workplace challenges into opportunities for growth. And since AI is at the forefront of every conversation, we’ll analyze its complex role in reshaping traditional systems and unlocking new ways to understand and support people.

You’ll learn:

• Why traditional engagement and career models are breaking down—and what must replace them in 2026
• How leaders can use agility and AI to rebuild trust, momentum, and manager effectiveness
• Practical frameworks for navigating disruption while keeping people at the center of change
• And more!
