About this Event
Work isn’t working—for too many people, it’s a source of burnout, disconnection, or constant anxiety. We believe there’s a better way to work, and at The Work Summit, we’re building it together.
📅 Two immersive days, Sept 16-17, just north of Chicago in Evanston, IL
👥 Small-group, expert-led workshops
💡 Real-world strategies for better work and stronger leadership
