2026 - May 14 - Human-Centered Leadership – Leading Through Burnout, Change, and AI


Date: 5/14/2026 Time: from 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM

Join us for "Human-Centered Leadership – Leading Through Burnout, Change, and AI," presented by Jeannie Seery


Meet us at Clark State College Brinkman Education Center at 11:30am.

Session Description: In today’s fast-paced and ever-changing workplace, employees are more stressed, more distracted, and more disengaged than ever—and traditional leadership approaches often fall short. Join us for an engaging and practical session on Human-Centered Leadership, where we’ll explore how leaders can notice the subtle signs of burnout, create psychological safety, and reconnect their teams to purpose—even in an environment shaped by constant change and AI-driven automation. Through real stories, interactive reflection, and actionable strategies, you’ll leave with tools you can use immediately to lead with empathy, inspire engagement, and make a lasting impact. This session is perfect for anyone who wants to lead people, not just performance, and ensure their team thrives in a modern workplace.
