Exponential Summit by Red Button

Who is the summit for

Do you want to lead exponential change,
not just survive it?

Exponential Summit brings together CEOs, leaders, HR and L&D professionals and everyone who wants to be part of it.

One day full of concrete experience, practical tools and a community dealing with the same challenges as you.

CEOs, board members,
leaders

You know things are changing at exponential speed. You feel pressure from all sides. But inside your company, you can't find an equal partner to openly talk it through. And how do you keep people's trust and company culture intact as the pace of change accelerates?

Come for clarity on what genuinely moves company performance today — and leave with concrete next steps and people you can turn to.

  • How to lead when the rules change faster than ever.
  • How to use AI for competitive advantage.
  • How to keep both people and performance.

HR and L&D, Talent
Development

You want to be architects of change, not just training buyers. But you have to justify your role to the board every year — and inside the company, you often do it alone. Finding someone who truly understands what you do isn't easy.

Come for arguments, tools and a community of people who know exactly what you're talking about.

  • How to connect development with strategy and become a board partner.
  • How to prepare your organisation for AI and change.
  • How to measure the impact of development on company performance.

Everyone who wants
to be part of it

Curious how technology is reshaping society? What leadership looks like in the age of AI? How companies shape the world around you? And where to find orientation in a time that's changing faster than ever?

Come for a perspective that goes beyond your everyday role. The Summit is for anyone who wants to understand the era they're living in.

  • How technology is changing the way we work and live.
  • How companies and their leaders shape society.
  • Where the changes that will affect us all are born.

One stage isn't enough.

Inspiration grounded in data and real-world examples

You'll hear concrete approaches companies use when implementing AI, changing leadership, or guiding people through demanding transitions.

A space to work through specific situations and have conversations you don't have the right people for back at the office.

program

Three thematic pillars.
Two practical layers.
One shared energy.

On the main stage, ideas, data, inspiration and experience will interweave. In the practical streams, we'll roll up our sleeves together and you'll turn them into concrete steps that will work directly for you.

Keynotes Panel discussions Case studies Workshops Round tables Networking EXPO
Morning

Pillar: People

The way leaders manage others, build trust and work with team energy has always shown in results. With technological change, it's more visible than ever.

Topics we'll cover:

  • How to maintain performance without unnecessary pressure or losing people in the exponential era.
  • How to build trust and psychological safety in teams.
  • How to strengthen resilience, ownership and healthy collaboration.
Afternoon

Pillar: Technology

Technological change won't wait. How do you grasp rapid technological change and use it for the good of your business? We'll take a concrete look at what is already changing the way we work, decide and lead.

Topics we'll cover:

  • How to think about AI and technology from a leadership perspective.
  • Where technology actually raises performance and where it just creates confusion and pressure.
  • How to lead people in a time when roles, competences and expectations are all shifting.
End of day

Pillar: Society

The decisions leaders make in companies shape the outside world more than ever. They impact people, communities and the shape of society. And that in turn affects reputation, trust and long-term performance.

Topics we'll cover:

  • How to think about a company's impact in a world of fast change.
  • Why responsibility and performance belong together today.
  • How to lead a company with broader purpose without losing business relevance.

Humans amplified by TECHNOLOGY.

Technology and AI aren't here to replace people. They're here to help people handle complexity, make faster decisions, and have space for work that actually matters. They work best when the person behind them knows why they're using them — and can pass that on. At the Summit, we put technology where it belongs: in service of people.

11 years of tradition. A new chapter. And just getting started...

Happiness@Work helped hundreds of companies understand that working with people and company culture isn't a benefit, but a strategic advantage with an impact on performance, loyalty and results. Today companies face another layer: technological change, pressure for speed, shifting roles and expectations. And they need to learn faster than the world is changing.

That's why Exponential Leadership Summit was born.
A new chapter. The same courage to call things as they are.
