The mission of the WorkHuman movement is to empower organizations and leaders worldwide to create a more human workplace. At the second annual WorkHuman conference, HR leaders and practitioners will learn how to build a work culture that harnesses the transformative power of human connections and well-being, and unites all employees in the pursuit of shared goals and greater business success.

The inaugural WorkHuman conference was held in June 2015, and featured some of the world's most influential thought leaders and visionaries, including Arianna Huffington, actor Rob Lowe, and bestselling authors Adam Grant and Shawn Achor.

"WorkHuman 2015 was a transformative event, unlike any conference I have ever attended before. The speaker roster was nothing short of amazing, and the overall attendee experience was engaging, inspiring and memorable, said China Gorman, Business Leader and Consultant. "I'm thrilled to be working with Globoforce this year to bring the WorkHuman movement into the light, and to be part of this incredible event again."

The ideal WorkHuman speaker will share expertise, primary research and knowledge on topics in HR, leadership and pychology, including worker happiness, recognition and gratitude, developing engagement, affective commitment and building a great workplace. Submissions will be considered for 45 minute break-out sessions, 15-minute TED-style talk sessions, 45-minute workshops, well-being activities, art or interactive experiences, and entertainment.



"The world of work is changing. More than ever, employees are looking for meaning, fulfillment and camaraderie in their work. Our inaugural conference was a huge success and launched our exploration of the future of work," said Julie Zadow, executive director of WorkHuman. "WorkHuman 2016 will take our mission even further in the pursuit of making the workplace a better and more human environment. We're looking forward to welcoming more inspirational speakers and business leaders to contribute to our growing community of human-focused organizations, scholars and thinkers."
