In a world where innovation depends on courage, how can leaders build workplaces where people feel safe to speak up, take risks, and challenge the status quo?Join Harvard Business School Professor and celebrated author Amy Edmondson for an intimate fireside chat exploring what it truly means to lead a fearless organization. Drawing from her groundbreaking research and best-selling book The Fearless Organization, Amy will unpack how psychological safety fuels collaboration, resilience, and performance—and why it's now a competitive advantage.

In conversation with Workhuman, Amy will share practical insights to help HR and business leaders cultivate environments where every voice is heard and every idea has the power to spark transformation.

There's no doubt that the workplace of yesteryear is rapidly changing, and leaders need to meet the people demands of today to succeed. Drawing insights from her new book, Kelly Monahan explains that there is a skill shortage and it's unlikely that the average worker has the skills necessary to be leaders in the next five years, which poses real challenges for the future. In this talk, she gives the audience three key takeaways rooted in human-powered leadership to stay ahead:

• Fostering autonomy and de-emphasizing hierarchical structures
• Cultivating a sense of purpose
• Focusing on wellness at the workplace

These strategies are vital to navigating today's complex, distributed work environment and creating sustainable, happy teams.
