Speakers
The people shaping what comes next
Hear from the leaders, operators and innovators changing how organizations work.
Be where the decisions are made
UNLEASH 2026 brings together the leaders redesigning work, workforce strategy, AI, technology and the operating model of modern enterprise.
This is where the HR world meets to make decisions.
Join leaders from the world's leading organizations
Every year, senior HR, people, technology, and business leaders from the world's most recognized organizations attend UNLEASH to exchange ideas, evaluate new technologies, and make the decisions shaping the future of work.
From global enterprises to fast-growing innovators, UNLEASH brings together thousands of decision-makers responsible for workforce transformation, AI adoption, talent, learning, employee experience, and organizational change.
Past attendees include:
Work Reinvention is a team sport
Work Reinvention does not sit inside one function anymore. AI changes roles, workflows and decision-making. Skills change workforce planning. Technology changes the operating model. Reward, data and culture determine whether transformation holds. That is why the right people need to be in the same place, at the same time.
UNLEASH brings HR, business, technology and transformation leaders together so teams can compare what is working, challenge what is not, and leave with decisions they can act on.
Leave with the year clarified
Senior leaders do not come to UNLEASH to consume content. They come to make decisions. Across three days, leaders compare approaches, test assumptions, meet partners, shortlist solutions and clarify the priorities that will shape the year ahead.
The product is not content. The product is confidence.
This comes directly from the directive’s audience-intent idea: people come for clearer priorities, stronger confidence and better decisions.
