People Development Executive Summit Fall 2026

It takes place at JW Marriott Nashville in Nashville, Tennessee.

The published audience includes chief learning officers, chief talent officers, and senior leaders in learning and development, talent management, and leadership development.

It is most useful for heads of learning, talent management and leadership development at very large companies, since the summit is invitation-only and the attendee roster lists Chief Learning Officers and SVP or VP level heads of those functions. Practitioners at smaller firms, or managers below the head-of-function level, would likely get less from it, because the peer group is senior enterprise executives and the format is a hosted executive gathering with sponsors such as Big Think+ rather than a skills-building conference.
