***Strategic Workforce Adaptation:* *Creating a Future-Ready, High-Performance Organization***

***Tuesday, May 6th, from 1:30 to 4:30pm PT (local time) at Caesars Forum, Las Vegas, NV***

**Creators and Facilitators:**

- [Shonna Waters, Phd](https://www.linkedin.com/in/shonna-waters/)

**Overview:**

In an era where Ai, automation, and unrelenting change threaten to overwhelm even the most seasoned leaders, it’s not enough to invest in technology—you must empower your workforce to adapt quickly and sustainably. This hands-on session will guide you through the key levers of *Strategic Workforce Adaptation*, an approach that aligns organizational goals with human realities to unlock rapid adoption, innovation, and growth.

You’ll hear from the researchers behind the *Workforce Angst Index*, who will shed light on the unseen root causes of the strategy-execution gap. They’ll share breaking research insights and discuss what it means for you and your organization.  

Drawing upon *Psychological Ergonomics™* principles, you’ll explore how to reduce leadership overwhelm, build lasting stress capacity, and design work structures that encourage people to embrace—and excel with—new processes and tools (e.g., Ai). Through a series of interactive exercises and real-world case discussions, participants will draft a Blueprint for boosting workforce readiness, tackling friction points that derail Ai adoption, and ensuring teams remain motivated and engaged. This workshop delivers immediate strategies and metrics-based insights you can apply the moment you get back to the office.

Join us to work with your peers and learn how best-in-class organizations outpace the competition by weaving human-centered design into every technology or change initiative—ultimately turning uncertainty into one of your greatest competitive advantages.

**Target Audience**

Senior-level executives (VP's and above, Heads of Transformation or the like), typically from mid-market to larger enterprises (2,000+ employees)

**Learning Objectives**

1. **Clarify** how shifting business goals (including Ai and technology initiatives) require new thinking about *work design* and *people dynamics*.
2. **Experience** practical methods to increase *individual* and *organizational* stress capacity, reducing overwhelm and maintaining performance.
3. **Apply** Psychological Ergonomics™ principles to remove workplace friction and motivate faster adoption of new tools, processes, and ways of working.

## Develop an initial *Blueprint* that leaders can take back to their organizations, identifying immediate “quick wins” and longer-term actions.
