Spend two days in Washington with the CHROs whose adaptive workforce strategies can withstand whatever comes out of this Congress, this White House, and this regulatory cycle.
We start Wednesday evening with our bipartisan dinner featuring leaders from both sides of the aisle who will speak candidly about the political moment and how it’s impacting the workforce. It’s the kind of unscripted, off-the-record exchange that’s hard to find anywhere else in DC.
On Thursday we begin our core agenda featuring talks on the CEO–CHRO relationship, AI’s impact on the workforce, the next wave of healthcare pressures, and the cultural issues Fortune 500 HR leaders are wrestling with right now.

A discounted room rate is available for attendees through August 11. Reserve your room here through the Marriott group link, subject to availability.

Artificial intelligence is accelerating changes in how work is performed, how skills are developed, and how organizations prepare their people for the future. In this discussion, leading experts and corporate leaders explore how AI is reshaping jobs, how companies are approaching reskilling and workforce readiness, and what leaders must do to ensure their organizations remain adaptable in an era of rapid technological change.
CHROs will gain an overview of how AI is creating and displacing work with practical ways to approach reskilling. Plus, insights on how the HR function itself must evolve to steer AI-enabled enterprises.
