2025 Queensland HR Leadership Summit

5th & 6th March
BCEC

As trusted business advisors, HR leaders are relied upon to navigate change within their businesses, sectors and communities. Leadership is not only important but a fundamental aspect of the human element that can inspire change and drive innovation within the business. By leveraging human potential, collaboration, knowledge, and data, HR leaders play a critical role as they help shape the future of the workplace.

 

The 2025 Queensland HR Leadership Summit will focus on navigating complexity. The program will cover important topics, including developing a sustainable people strategy, creating a skills-based workforce, implementing effective change management, balancing human skills with digital innovation, communicating values to both the business and the board, and empowering a diverse workforce. These themes are expected to dominate discussions at the conference, helping attendees refine their game plan and strategic roadmap for navigating the people landscape beyond 2025.
