How HR Leaders Change the World

11th November 2026 - London

Where HR Powers positive change for business, people and planet

Join the annual gathering of bold, forward-thinking HR leaders who believe people strategy can shape the future of business - and the world beyond.

Bringing together Chief People Officers and HR decision-makers, the conference features powerful keynote speakers, candid conversations and practical insights from leaders who
are proving that commercial performance and positive impact go hand in hand.

This isn’t theory. It’s real-world leadership stories, from organisations embedding sustainability into people strategy to those designing human-centred culture in the age of AI.

Building on the success of the How HR Leaders Change the World podcast, the conference inspires every HR Professional to see themselves as an HR Changemaker, equipped with ideas, confidence and community to lead differently.

It’s energising. It’s practical. And it’s a reminder that HR holds extraordinary influence.

If you care about the future of work, and the role you play in shaping it, this is your room.
