Work is being reinvented — but by whom, and for whose benefit? As AI reshapes industries and powerful voices push back against hard-won workplace freedoms, senior leaders face a defining question: are we making deliberate choices about the future, or simply accepting logics that seem beyond our control?

This session brings together leading thinkers in social research, neuroscience and technology policy to cut through the noise. Expect challenging questions, honest debate, and — crucially — practical insight when it comes to the question of navigating change in an increasingly uncertain world. The future of work is not inevitable. It is a choice.
