This year’s theme, Navigating Change: Building Capacity. Empowering Wellbeing, emerged from the understanding that the pace of change is accelerating and can be overwhelming. We can’t get ahead of it, and we can’t manage it alone. Through connection and collaboration, we can go from struggle to strength, expand capacity, and empower wellbeing in ourselves and our clients.
We invite you to join us to gain transformative insights, strengthen your practice, and build deeper connections within a community of forward-thinking professionals.
In past years, we have sold out and closed registration early. We encourage you to register early to secure your spot.






Keynote Speaker and Author
We’re All in This Together: Living, Learning, and Leading Through Change
We find ourselves in a time of massive disruption right now. The one constant amid all the change, stress, and uncertainty we face at work and in life these days is us.
When we take ownership and responsibility for our experience, we not only make it easier to navigate the changes we face…we can also empower ourselves and those around us to stay focused and keep things in perspective, regardless of the circumstances.
This interactive keynote, which is based on the core principles of Mike Robbins’ work and research over the past 25 years, illustrates how we can navigate change effectively and thrive in the process.
