EGN invites you to EGN Combined Meeting: HR & Finance Leaders, Singapore 1
Date/ Time: Friday, 16 January 2026 | 8:30 AM - 12:30 PM SGT
Future of Work: Multiple Lenses on Structural Shifts
The future of work is no longer shaped by one function alone.
As workforce expectations shift, hybrid models evolve, and AI accelerates how work gets done, leaders across HR, Finance, Technology and the business are grappling with shared questions, from capability and productivity to cost, resilience and long-term value creation.
Led by HR Chair Catherine Chai and Finance Chair Nikhil Jain, this session brings leaders from different domains together to share perspectives, compare what they are noticing, explore emerging opportunities, and learn how others are interpreting the future of work through very different lenses.
This is a peer-level, cross-functional conversation designed to surface diverse perspectives, challenge assumptions, and build shared understanding.
Join us for a practical, forward-looking dialogue shaped by diverse leadership perspectives.
Come listen. Come contribute. Come broaden your thinking.
