With technology and in particulatar AI and ML shaping the future of work for organisations across industries, this panel brings together leaders to share insights on how they have “made it work”, by utilising best-in-class technology; to drive transformation within the context of their roles, business challenges and opportunities faced by their organisations.

Discover how AI-driven insights accelerate decision-making, streamlining operations, and personalising experiences to optimise performance. During this session we will share Workday’s position on Responsible AI (RAI) as a strategic advantage, mitigating risks and fostering innovation. It is a paradigm shift as we humanise AI, bridging trust gaps between employees and employers; charting a course towards a future where AI enriches the human experience, propelling organisations to unprecedented success.

While Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) have wide organisational focus, it is not a mere 'nice to have' but a real game-changer in driving business impact and improved performance. Hear from the champions in their respective field, drawing parallels between the individual and the organisation experience, on DEI principles in driving superior performance. They will share their journeys, success, lessons to draw inspiration from and apply in shaping the future of work.
