About the Pathwayz Conference 2026

HR Global Executive Expedition

Scout isn’t in the jungle anymore—he’s on a global expedition! This year, the Pathwayz Conference is a two-day field guide for HR executives leading across borders, time zones, and cultures. Together, we’ll journey through four terrains—Global Teams, Technology in Business, Business Acumen, and Leadership Development—with roundtables, interviews, sandboxes, and workshops built for real enterprise decision-making.

What Makes this Unique?

🚀 A High-Caliber Audience – Attendees are all in an HR executive position, ensuring deep, meaningful conversations with HR decision-makers from across the globe.

🎤 Beyond Traditional Conferences Design – No long-winded keynotes. Expect interactive panel discussions, 1:1 interviews, roundtables, and hands-on facilitation that go beyond theory and into real-world impact.

📖 Strategy-Driven & Action-Oriented – Attendees receive a custom workbook filled with frameworks, guiding questions, and actionable strategies they can implement immediately within their organizations.

🌍 A Global Perspective – Designed for international HR leaders, this event provides cutting-edge insights into AI, performance management, workforce transformation, and HR technology innovation—all through a global lens.

🤝 Meaningful Networking & Collaboration – With just 100 invite-only attendees, you’ll have planned opportunities to engage, collaborate, and build powerful connections with HR leaders who understand your challenges and goals.
