The Future of Work and Human Performance Summit

Tuesday, 05/12

The Work Pillar harnesses human and AI co-evolution to advance AGENCY — the capacity of individuals, teams, organizations, and economies to direct work, shape outcomes, and create value in AI-enabled environments. The Future of Work and Human Performance Summit starts from one premise: the future of work is dynamic, recombining, trust-centered, and AI-powered — where human judgment sets the direction and AI expands what we can accomplish together.

AGENCY is measured across six dimensions:

Agency

Intent, judgment, tradeoffs, authority retained in AI-augmented workflows

Growth

Continuous skill, judgment, and performance expansion through work itself 

Enablement

AI as a force multiplier that removes friction and extends capability 

Navigation

Movement across roles, opportunities, and learning pathways as value shifts

Collaboration

Human – human and human – AI coordination that compounds outcomes 

Yield

Durable economic and societal value from expanded capability and innovation 

Who this summit is for

CHRO, COO, CIO, or Heads of Workforce Transformation trying to move beyond AI pilots into a coherent operating model for your workforce – this summit is built around your decisions.

Collaboration, coordination, and collective intelligence

The Work Summit is designed to assess and deliver AGENCY outcomes across individual capacities, organizational systems, and labour market systems, supported by two capability domains:

PEAK

Learning, performance development, and judgment

SYNC

Collaboration, coordination, and collective intelligence

The Future of Work and Human Performance Summit

10:00 – 10:10

Welcome & Framing: Work as the Vehicle for Agency

  • Why Work is the core “vehicle” for human agency in Human+Tech Week

  • How the day moves from individuals → organizations → labor markets

  • What participants should listen for and be ready to act on

10:10 – 11:00

Block 1 – Establishing Shared Context: The New Architecture of Work

  • Top 100 Work challenges as AI reshapes jobs, teams, and org design

  • Shift from role-based org charts to capability systems and skills visibility

  • How to keep humans in charge of intent, judgment, and boundaries

  • AI agents and “super‑teams”: flatter structures, new leadership muscles

11:00 – 12:00

Block 2 – Luminary Deep Dive: What ‘Good AI Work’ Looks Like

  • Inside stories from organizations where AI expands human agency

  • Translating AI capability into real workflows without killing trust

  • AI copilots, embedded coaching, and team decision support that actually stick

  • Hard numbers on performance, inclusion, and manager effectiveness

12:00 – 1:00

Networking Lunch

  • Curated seating to mix employers, builders, investors, and civic leaders

  • Light prompts so tables surface one “must‑solve” Work challenge each

1:00 – 2:00

Block 3 – Individual Scale: Work as a Continuous Capability Building Engine

  • Work as the primary learning system, not just a place to use skills

  • Skills and careers driven by real output data, not static roles/credentials

  • AI‑driven coaching and mentoring in the flow of work (copilots, nudges, rehearsal)

  • Guardrails for energy, focus, and burnout in always‑on environments

2:00 – 3:00

Block 4 – Organizational Scale: Teams, Coordination, and Collective Intelligence

  • Real‑time intelligence on skills, projects, and outcomes across the org

  • Dynamic team formation and re‑formation as conditions change

  • AI teammates and orchestration layers reshaping meetings and “war rooms”

  • Freeing humans for creativity, judgment, and relationship work

3:00 – 3:20

Afternoon Break

  • Coffee, decompression, and hallway deal‑making

3:20 – 4:20

Block 5 – Societal Scale: Labor Markets as Adaptive Economic Infrastructure

  • Skills‑based labor markets and worker‑controlled capability records

  • Regional and sector‑wide labor intelligence that crosses platforms

  • AI‑enhanced matching, mobility, and safety nets for reshuffling workers

  • How benefits and policy need to evolve so AI doesn’t widen the gap

4:20 – 5:30

Block 6 – Infrastructure & Deployment: From Pilots to AI Coworkers

  • Platforms, data, and governance required for AI‑native work systems

  • What separates “proof of concept” from production‑grade deployments

  • Change management and risk practices that keep humans on board

  • Measuring impact on productivity, experience, and wellbeing—not just cost

5:30 – 6:00

Block 7 – Synthesis: What We Heard & What Matters Now

  • Commissioning the inaugural round of the Top 100 Future of Work challenges

  • Opening cohorts across Implementation Labs, Inflection Labs, and Luminary Labs

  • Participants find their place in the year-round working network as builders, backers, or institutions
