Talent and Culture Outlook 2026
An Expert Panel Discussion
A new year brings new opportunities and challenges. Organizations are still in a very dynamic, ever-changing environment – especially as it relates to talent and culture.
What are the most important people and culture priorities for 2026? We have assembled three senior HR executives from three different industries – healthcare, manufacturing, and restaurant – to share their perspective on this important strategic question. Join us for a lively panel discussion as we explore the year’s burning issues.
We will be asking our panelist all the difficult questions that HR, OD and talent professionals face each day:
- How does your organization continue to change in today’s economic, social, and business environment?
- What are you doing to attract and retain top talent?
- How are you responding to AI developments, and how do you expect they will impact our work in 2026?
- What is your executive team struggling with and what innovative programs are you deploying to stay ahead of these issues?
These are just some of the questions we will explore during our time with the experienced and knowledgeable professionals on our panel.
Featured Panelist:
- Ane McNeil, Senior Vice President, Human Resources, Trinity Health
- Maureen Pittenger, Executive Vice President – Chief HR Officer, Dominos
- Melanie Stepp, Chief HR Officer, Veritas
Please join us for what will be a fascinating conversation on the future of HR, leadership development trends, and talent recruitment and retention strategies.
During this interactive webinar our esteemed panelists will discuss the current state of their organization’s talent and organizational development programs. We will also ask them to describe new initiatives and innovations planned for 2026 in response to our workplace challenges. Lastly, we’ll ask that they share longer-term projections for developing talent and culture innovative programs in support of the business.
Date: Tuesday, January 27th, 2026
Time: 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM ET
Location: Zoom
We look forward to having you join us for this engaging professional development webinar!
