Date : Wednesday, November 4, 2026

Time: 5:30 - 7:30 pm ET

Location: Slalom: 399 Boylston St, Boston, MA

Work feels heavier than ever. Employees are navigating constant change, rising expectations, and new AI-powered ways of working, often without a reduction in workload. But even as pressure and overwhelm at work continues to climb, most burnout conversations focus on helping individuals become more resilient. What if the bigger opportunity is redesigning the work itself?
