The Workforce Experience Conference is the flagship event from the Association for Business Psychology (ABP). In 2025, the ABP will be celebrating 25 years of championing the profession, advocating for excellence, and shaping the future of work.
Join us as we celebrate the last 25 years and look forward to what the future holds for business psychology and the people profession at: ‘The Workforce Experience Conference 2025: Guardianship and Growth’.
Date: 30 April – 01 May 2025
Location: Denham Grove, UK
Over two immersive days, over 45 world-class speakers, forward-thinking practitioners, and industry pioneers will explore the evolving role of psychology in the workplace.
Themes covered will range from how to support the workforce during large scale legislative changes and a volatile political landscape to how AI is impacting the way we work, learn and operate across the people function.
Guardianship and growth will be at the heart of what we discuss at the conference.
Guardianship means upholding the highest ethical and professional standards, safeguarding the credibility of business psychology, and ensuring future practitioners inherit a profession built on integrity.
Growth is about expanding our influence and impact, embracing new technologies and methodologies, and ensuring business psychology continues to shape the world of work in meaningful ways.
