Future-Proofing Manager Capability for 2026

​This session supports HR leaders to future-proof their organisations for 2026 by strengthening manager capability where it matters most.

​We’ll focus on building clarity, confidence, and practical skills for leading in an AI-accelerated environment, identifying the capability gaps emerging next, and partnering with leaders to help teams perform through ongoing change.

​

​Through facilitated discussion, we’ll surface the themes and questions HR leaders are grappling with right now, including:

• ​How to help leaders adopt AI responsibly, without creating fear or confusion

• ​How HR can guide better hiring decisions as roles and capabilities evolve

• ​Which leadership and team skills matter most for 2026, and where gaps are already emerging

​We’ll then shift into a hands-on segment, introducing simple frameworks HR can use to enable and uplift leaders.

​

​We’ll finish with time for informal conversation, reflection, and connection with peers, plus space to share insights and next steps for strengthening manager capability into 2026.
