Agenda

🕑: 09:30 AM
How to Effectively Navigate ANY Life Challenge with Resilience

Info: Dr. Elia Gourgouris also known as America's Happiness Doctor will speak with us about our resilience and how to build it in adversity.


🕑: 10:30 AM
Kim Black The Belonging Effect: Escape Room Edition

Info: This isn’t a lecture - it’s an experience. In this high-energy environment participants become part of The Belonging Escape Room, an interactive simulation where teams must “unlock” inclusion, trust, and wellbeing through real-world HR challenges. Each lock represents a workplace dilemma: misfired feedback, invisible burnout, or an overlooked voice. To escape, participants must decode data, rewrite dialogue, and design rituals that build psychological safety.

Along the way, they’ll discover how belonging directly drives performance and retention: Gallup research shows disengagement now costs organizations $8.9 trillion globally, while replacing a single employee costs 50–200% of annual salary. Gamified learning increases knowledge retention by 75% (ATD), so participants leave with muscle memory, not just notes.

The session closes with each team designing a “Belonging Ritual Card” - a practical, measurable culture habit they can pilot within 30 days.


🕑: 12:30 PM
Enrique Rubio Community Building Workshop

Info: Top voice and disruptor of HR Enrique Rubio is the Founder and CEO of Hacking HR with 1M+ followers on LinkedIn and a global voice in the HR space.
