Welcome to Transformation NOW! 2025 

 

Keynote speaker

Frank Martela

Researcher, Author, & Expert in Meaning and Motivation

Martela will take the stage with an inspiring keynote on Keys to well-being at work - How to strengthen well-being and achievement through intrinsic motivation. 

Engaged employees feel better and perform better. When people have an inner drive to get things done, they are proactive and willing to put in the effort to achieve great results. And because they find the work itself intrinsically motivating, their own well-being is better. 

But how to find more intrinsic motivation at work? As a leading expert of human motivation, Frank Martela will explain to you what intrinsic motivation is, why you should invest in it, and what are the four key factors that awaken employee engagement. Combining cutting edge research with real-life examples, the talk will walk you through the key practices through which to find your inner fire to get things done.

Journey to intelligent applications

Future Talent Management

Join Carita to explore what's next in talent management. The future of talent management is employee-driven, with individuals in the driver’s seat of their own career development.
Skill-based organizations are evolving, giving employees more flexibility to grow and shift roles.
In SuccessFactors AI supports this by matching people with learning, projects, mentors, and needed skills.
But while technology enables change, it’s much more than that – true transformation requires a cultural shift.
