11th & 12th June
Grand Millennium Auckland

Forward Motion – Leveraging learning as a catalyst for organisational change

Learning and development are powerful catalysts for change in shaping a future-ready workforce. To shape change, it also requires strategic planning, rethinking, collaborating and knowledge-sharing. Recognising the diverse backgrounds and needs of your learners enables a more inclusive and impactful approach to fostering a sustainable future. 

The 2026 NZ L&D Leadership Summit program invites learning, OD and capability leaders to examine areas such as building a learning-centred organisation, uplifting workforce capability, empowering people to adapt and grow, digital literacy, utilising AI to enhance workplace learning, developing leaders, designing a learning and capability strategy that is relevant to the current and future needs of the business, maximising the return on investment for L&D spending, and more.
