On demand: 2026 Employee Engagement Trends Explored!

What’s next for employee engagement? Key trends for 2026

2026 is shaping up to be a year of significant shift; the underlying experience of work is changing fast, shaped by connection, trust, workload and how work itself is designed.

Check out this webinar where People Insight’s team of expert consultants explore the employee engagement trends that will matter most in 2026. Grounded in millions of employee data points and real-world organisational experience, this session goes beyond the headlines to help you understand what’s really driving engagement today and where leaders should focus their effort next.

What this session explores

⚙️ How we work – Take a grounded look at how AI is beginning to reshape the way work gets done, where we can genuinely reduce workload and support capacity, and how organisations can redesign roles and workflows to enhance performance, inclusion and engagement.

(Presented by Kate Pritchard)

👥 Who we work with – Understand why engagement, trust and experience now vary more between teams than organisations, what the data tells us about leadership and management perceptions, and how empowering managers is key to creating consistently outstanding employee experiences.

(Presented by Clare Dennis)

🏢 Where we work – Explore the evolution of connection and belonging, why loneliness is emerging as a real organisational risk, and how physical and virtual environments can either strengthen or weaken everyday relationships.
