2025 SA HR Leadership Summit

20th & 21st February
Adelaide Convention Centre

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 South Australia 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.
