Talent Summit 2027: REDESIGN

Work is changing at its foundations. Join Ireland’s most influential People leaders to move beyond incremental tweaks and redesign leadership, HR, skills, and careers.

Incremental Tweaks Are No Longer Enough.

How we perform, value, think about, and create work is shifting fundamentally. On February 25, 2027, Talent Summit asks how we respond—exploring three core questions across the main stage:

1.What world are we redesigning for?

Challenging our assumptions about the world we actually face, with fact-based insight into the trends reshaping it.

2.How do we redesign anything?

Applying the methods and mindsets of design to reinvent how organisations operate.

3.How do we redesign work?

Exploring progressive organisational design—and what it means for leadership, the HR function, skills, learning, and careers.

Unrivalled Energy. Global Perspectives.

After connecting HR leaders across Dublin, Lyon, Cork, and Galway in 2026, we are bringing the conversation back to the RDS this February. Relive the main-stage moments from Dublin and see why senior leaders make this their anchor event of the year.
