In today’s workplace, uncertainty is the only constant. From shifting workforce expectations and organizational change to the pressures of AI-driven transformation, HR leaders are navigating an era of profound disruption. But what if the key to success isn’t just resilience - it’s emotional agility?

Join us for an exclusive conversation with Susan David, award-winning Harvard Medical School psychologist and one of the world’s most influential management thinkers.

We’ll explore how the principles of emotional agility, the ability to navigate thoughts, emotions, and experiences with clarity and adaptability, have become essential for leaders, teams, and workplaces in 2025.

Building on insights from her #1 WSJ Bestseller, Susan will go beyond her renowned TED Talk and discuss:

• Why emotional agility is more critical than ever in a workplace shaped by change, AI, and evolving employee expectations.
• How HR and people leaders can help employees embrace uncertainty and avoid the burnout of toxic positivity.
• The connection between authenticity and adaptability and how leaders can create psychologically safe cultures without sacrificing performance.
• How organizations can move beyond outdated “resilience” strategies and equip their people with the mindset to thrive amid uncertainty.

This isn’t just a discussion about emotions, it’s a strategic roadmap for HR leaders to build workplaces that are more agile, human, and future-ready.
