Webinars

Our first webinar in March was ‘Why AI amplifies efficiency but exposes capability gaps’. Hiam Sakakini from The Culture Equation discussed how people are quicker to reach for AI than to sit with a problem. And over time, that changes capability. At the same time, no one is denying how good AI is getting.

“This isn’t an anti AI argument. It’s a tension. As we enter the Age of AI, we are gaining speed, efficiency and scale. But what are we quietly losing?”

Next Webinar is in June

Conference

‘Seen. Valued. Heard. Exploring the Mindset and Perspectives in the Workplace, with Strategies for Better Engagement.’

This conference centres our humanity. Currently, only 1 in 5 employees globally are engaged with their work. How can a stressed employee be a productive one? What do we need to do, to better understand the needs of employees and employers? We must look at the person behind the professional.

Join your peers, researchers, wellbeing and mental health professionals for a day of data driven insights and innovative strategies. This event will be held at The Mint (Sydney), a small and intimate venue with beautiful surroundings. You’ll be part of the audience of 90 people, all who work on this issue from different perspectives across industries. Together with the speakers and audience members, we’ll have the real conversations on workplace wellbeing.

Sponsors

Exciting to announce GraceX is our first sponsor for the annual conference this year (see our partnerships section).

GraceX is a psychosocial risk management platform built for Australian small and medium sized businesses with 40 to 200 employees. GRACEX operates entirely inside Microsoft 365, combining weekly wellbeing content, anonymous employee surveys reviewed by a human organisational psychologist, and leadership reporting into a single system that helps organisations identify, monitor, and respond to psychosocial risk before it becomes a workers compensation claim, a regulatory finding, or a preventable resignation.

Sharespace is always looking for and welcoming new partnerships. If your organisation is interested in sponsoring this year’s annual conference, please contact us at vanessa.murphy@wayahead.org.au

Wayahead sharespace 2026 conference

Annual Psychosocial Risk Management 2026

In 2026, psychosocial risk is no longer a “people issue.” It’s a board-level liability.

With new WHS regulations now enforced across Australia, organisations are being held accountable not only
for how they respond to harm — but for how they design work to prevent it. Are your systems built for it?

Join us at the 9th Annual Psychosocial Risk Management 2026 — the premier forum uniting Australia’s HR, HSE, regulators and risk leaders to turn psychosocial compliance into strategic advantage.
