Join us for this HR Forward session on November 19th 8.00AM-13.00 PM in Central Bangkok.
Leadership in an Era of Constant Change: Trends and Challenges of 2026
The playbook for leadership keeps getting rewritten. What worked last year might be obsolete tomorrow. The leaders who thrive aren’t the ones with all the answers—they’re the ones who can pivot, experiment, and bring their teams along for the ride
This isn’t about managing change in theory—it’s about leading through four specific forces that are reshaping how Thai organizations operate. You need practical strategies that work when budgets are tight, when AI tools are overhyped, when digital roadmaps shift monthly, and when losing key talent can derail your entire quarter.
This half-day session brings together leaders who are navigating these exact challenges right now. You’ll experience what adaptive leadership feels like, then hear concrete strategies from the trenches.
– Proven approaches to workforce financial wellness that reduce turnover and boost engagement—even when you can’t dramatically increase salaries
– Real talk on HR technology and AI—what’s actually working versus what’s wasting money and creating more problems
– Digital transformation strategies that stick when leading omnichannel operations and cross-functional teams through constant change
– Talent retention and development tactics that work in a shortage economy—using data to build cultures where people want to stay.
The Experience: IMPROV Principles for Adaptive Leadership
Before you can lead adaptive teams through economic uncertainty, you need to experience what agility actually feels like. Led by IMPROV Communication, this interactive workshop gets you comfortable with the uncomfortable:
– “Yes, and…” — Build on ideas instead of shutting them down when resources are tight
– Embrace productive failure — Create spaces where smart experimentation happens despite pressure
– Build trust at speed — Develop collaboration skills that work when stakes are high
– Decision-making in the moment — Practice responding when the plan falls apart (again)
This isn’t corporate theater. It’s about rewiring how you show up as a leader when everything’s uncertain.
