Agenda

Employers know that mental health matters. But, as needs grow more complex, benefits leaders are rethinking its role in managing risk, strengthening workforce capacity, and driving business results. Join Lyra’s President of Employer Solutions, Sean McBride, for an exclusive first look at insights from the 2027 Workforce Mental Health Trends Report. We’ll explore the shifts shaping benefits strategy, challenge outdated assumptions, and spotlight the innovations supporting the future of work.

AI will reshape how work gets done, but its impact will depend on how well people can adapt and perform through this transformation. Join Lyra’s CEO Jennifer Schulz for a conversation on how leaders can navigate the human impact of AI-driven change—protecting mental health, cognitive capacity, and the psychosocial safety employees need to stay engaged and perform at their best.

Companies are flattening teams, widening spans of control, and rethinking what they need from frontline leaders. As these roles change, the human side of leadership becomes even more important.

To help people navigate change, the modern manager must bring what technology can’t: judgment, trust, context, and connection. And managers need support to do that well: today, 42% report higher stress than their direct reports.

Hear from Joe Grasso, PhD, Vice President of Workforce Transformation, as he shares how next gen coaching programs can strengthen managers' human skills, protect their well-being, and help them lead through change.
