What 100+ L&D leaders reveal about learning strategy maturity & what we're doing about it

AI is moving faster than most employees feel they can keep up with. And inside financial services where trust, regulation, risk, and speed all collide, that pressure tends to hit earlier… and harder.

Behind the scenes, many people are quietly asking:

• “Will I be replaced?”
• “Can I actually learn these new skills?”
• "Do I have what it takes to meet the new expectations?"

That invisible anxiety shows up as burnout, disengagement, stalled performance, and regretted attrition. The good news: this is exactly where HR can flip the script, especially in finance where talent risk quickly becomes business risk.

In this panel conversation, leaders from across the financial industry will share how they’re treating AI and skills development as a well-being strategy, not just a productivity play. You’ll walk away with practical ways to operationalize investment in your people, reduce AI-driven fear, and connect well-being to outcomes that matter in financial organizations: internal mobility, retention, trust in leadership, and readiness for what’s next.

Join us to explore how leading finance organizations are:

• Turning AI from a “replacement threat” into a credible story of employee empowerment
• Building AI literacy and in-demand skills in ways that feel accessible, not overwhelming
• Designing internal mobility and career pathways that keep people growing instead of checking out
• Protecting against new inequities, so AI programs don’t leave certain roles or employee groups behind
