HR Executives Dinner: Leading Major Workforce Transformations

Join The Conference Board for an intimate dinner in Brussels on 13 October 2026 with Luc de Baets, CHRO of Tata Steel Nederland, for a candid discussion on the role of HR leadership in major business transformation.

Tata Steel Nederland is navigating one of Europe’s most complex industrial transitions. The company is reshaping its organization, reducing costs, and strengthening competitiveness while preparing for a fundamental shift toward greener steel production. This transformation touches not only strategy and operations, but also people, culture, leadership, employee relations, and trust.

This private dinner will use the transformation underway at Tata Steel Nederland as a practical case for peer discussion among CHROs. Luc will share reflections on the CHRO’s role in leading through cost pressure, organizational change, headcount reduction, and long-term workforce transformation.

Designed for a small group of senior HR executives, the evening will provide a confidential setting for open exchange, practical insight, and senior-level networking with peers facing similar transformation challenges.
