HBR Leadership Summit 2025

April 29, 2025 • Virtual Event

Join us for HBR’s annual virtual conference on leadership, the HBR Leadership Summit (formerly Leaders Who Make a Difference). This full-day event features conversations with top global CEOs and leading management thinkers on pursuing both purpose and profits. As we move from interviews to masterclasses to audience Q&A, you'll get expert advice on how to navigate increasingly complex and uncertain markets, upskill and manage an AI-enabled workforce, and balance the needs of all your stakeholders. You'll hear from executives and entrepreneurs about their successes and challenges and from academics about their most relevant new research. And you’ll discover solutions for tackling some of our biggest social and environmental problems. We’ll look at questions such as: How can leaders promote positive change in their organizations, industries, and communities? What role should corporations play in today's fast-changing societies? What does it take to build a meaningful career? In times of volatility, we believe that business can be a force for good in society. Let the HBR Leadership Summit inspire and equip you with the insights and tools to make a real difference in your job and the world. Live from 9:15 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. EDT | Recordings included
