Your Next Strategic Briefing: The Makeover 2025

In 2024, visionaries from the World Economic Forum and LinkedIn helped us decode green growth. On October 15-16, 2025, we will tackle an even greater challenge: providing you with a strategic roadmap to lead in the age of Artificial Intelligence.

This event is designed to help you answer the most pressing questions for leaders today:

  • How will AI reshape your workplace and business model?
  • What new leadership skills are essential to drive innovation?
  • How can you build a culture that embraces technological change?

The Makeover 2025 is a two-day journey designed to move you from uncertainty to action.

Day 1: From AI Reality to Strategic Ambition

Our voyage begins on October 15th with a crucial ‘RE-AI-LITY CHECK’. We believe that before you can master AI, you must understand its impact on the human experience. We’ll start the day with inspiring stories of personal resilience, then zoom out to analyze the major economic shifts driven by technology. This sets the stage for our first big question: How must leadership itself be completely reimagined for an AI-powered world?

The afternoon is all about action. In our ‘AI-MING BEYOND’ sessions, we move from theory to practice. You’ll discover frameworks for creating powerful synergy between your people and intelligent systems, unlocking your organization’s “superpowers” to thrive through change. We’ll equip you with a practical AI-readiness checklist and explore the new skills your HR teams need to champion this transformation.

Day 2: Where Data Meets a Human-Centric Future

October 16th is dedicated to one of the most critical aspects of your business: valuing your people. The day kicks off with the highly anticipated launch of the 2025 Talentnet-Mercer Total Remuneration Survey. But we won’t just give you data; we’ll show you how AI is actively reshaping salary trends across Vietnam. Through real-world case studies, you’ll learn how to refine your rewards strategies for this new era, ensuring you can attract and retain the talent needed to win.

The quality of insights you expect from The Makeover is evolving to meet the next great challenge.
