Workhuman's Global Barometer Research

SHOWCASE

Join us for a first look at Workhuman’s flagship Humans at Work Global Barometer — a comprehensive research initiative examining the state of people and work in 2026.

Developed for senior HR and business leaders, this session unpacks our findings on the critical conditions shaping employee experience today. This new research surfaces signals on how work is changing, where employees feel clarity and alignment, how AI is affecting confidence, capability and well-being, and how changes in growth, skills, and recognition are affecting companies and their humans.

In this session, survey insights will be layered with signals from Workhuman’s client programs to illustrate where these trends are emerging in practice and their measurable impact on culture, leadership, and bottom‑line impact. Participants will leave with a data‑driven understanding of the trends defining the employee experience and practical takeaways they can apply immediately in their own workplaces.
