About this Event
Purpose and Flourishing in the Age of AI
The annual convening of the Initiative on Purpose and Flourishing is aimed at elevating key insights from both academia and best practices within organizations on topics related to building a workplace of greater meaning and wellbeing. Aligning with a core value of the Initiative to bridge theory and practice, academics and researchers will meet business leaders and practitioners to explore questions related to a shared goal of creating workplaces where everyone can thrive.
Each year at the convening, a different inquiry will be selected as a theme to explore these questions. In 2026, we turn our collective attention to a contemporary and critical question: What does purpose and flourishing look like in the age of artificial intelligence? As generative AI, automation, and machine learning transform the nature of work, identity, and human connection, we must ask: How do we preserve what makes us distinctly human? What does meaningful work look like when intelligence is no longer exclusive to people? And how might leaders, educators, and institutions design systems that not only withstand technological disruption while elevating purpose and flourishing within it?
Through expert panel discussions, interactive workshops and opportunities to connect with diverse stakeholders engaged in different fields, we look forward to collaborating on shared questions and commitments.
Agenda and confirmed speakers will be forthcoming January 2026. Programming suggestions can be sent to [email protected].
