Performing under pressure: Reducing workplace stress at scale

29 Apr 2026
Keynote Theatre 2
People experience , Employee wellbeing & development

Workplace stress is no longer just a wellbeing issue - it’s a performance issue.  

Over 40% of employees experience significant daily stress, which reduces focus, slows decision-making and increases burnout risk. For HR leaders, the challenge isn’t awareness - it’s scale. How do you support employee wellbeing across entire organisations in ways employees actually use? 

In this session,  we will explore the science of stress regulation and what it takes to implement effective wellbeing practices across large organisations. You’ll leave with practical ideas HR teams can implement to help employees feel calmer, think more clearly, and perform better under pressure.
