About this event

The world of work is changing—and HR leaders are at the center of what comes next.

Gartner HR Symposium/Xpo brings together CHROs and senior HR leaders to examine the forces reshaping organizations, from AI and evolving workforce needs to new approaches to leadership, talent and organizational transformation. It’s a place to step back from the day-to-day, challenge assumptions and explore what’s next.

 

At Indeed, we’re focused on helping employers navigate these changes with data, technology and responsible AI that can support better decisions across the hiring journey. We’re proud to join the conversation with leaders who are thinking about how talent and technology can work together to build stronger, more adaptable organizations.

We look forward to connecting with you in London at Gartner HR Symposium/Xpo 2026 and sharing perspectives on the future of work, the evolving workforce and what it takes to move forward.

Agenda

  • Traditional workforce models are struggling to keep pace with today’s volatility. Is your strategy optimized for stability or adaptability? Join this intimate roundtable to challenge the “recruitment-first” mindset and explore how high-performance teams—including Indeed’s partners in Formula 1 and the Premier League—engineer capability ecosystems that allow your organisation to thrive under pressure.

  • AI is changing how candidates assess employers and exposing gaps between brand promise and employee reality. This session examines the strategic implications as AI engines synthesize career sites, employee reviews and social proof. Discover how to align culture, employee advocacy and digital visibility to strengthen candidate trust and build an employer brand ready for AI-driven talent decisions.
