Tomorrow's the day!
One more sleep until you're hearing directly from the researchers already shaping what talent development looks like in the Philippines — and if you haven't signed up yet, this is genuinely your last chance.

The 4th PSTD Research Conference, Shaping Filipino Talent in a Polycrisis World, isn't your typical academic lineup. These are researchers whose work is already moving out of journals and into real workplaces, real teams, real decisions.

Here's who takes the stage tomorrow:

Ope Linchangco-Quijano, MP-Quijano, digs into strategic L&D in the Philippines — what competencies will actually matter for the profession going forward.

Marby Tabungar, DIRM, MHRM, looks at how AI and human-centered design can work together, not against each other, in building workforce capability.

Danzen Bondoc Olazo, PhD, brings a much-needed look at digital transformation in Philippine MSMEs and what resilience actually requires.

Anna M S Ordinario, MHSS, RPh, ACC, explores what it takes for teams to genuinely lead together, not just report to one person at the top. And closing things out.

Eduardo Canela, PhD, tackles the bigger question — what does Filipino talent even look like in a world that won't stop disrupting itself?

This is evidence-based, practice-ready, and built for exactly the kind of problems you're probably dealing with right now.

If you want a head start before tomorrow, our Book of Abstracts is already out — early access to the research and thinking behind every session. But once the conference kicks off, that early-bird window closes.

So if you've been meaning to register, do it today. Tomorrow will be here before you know it, and you don't want to be the one refreshing your feed wishing you'd signed up.

SAVE THE DATE: September Tipanan is back!

Tipanan is PSTD's regular get-together for the Talent Development community — a space to reconnect, learn, and grow alongside fellow practitioners. And yes, non-members are welcome too!

This September, we're talking Katatagan: Developing Resilient Leaders and Workforces in a Volatile World.

Today's leaders are navigating constant disruption — AI, hybrid work, multi-generational teams, economic uncertainty, nonstop change. This Tipanan session goes beyond individual coping skills to explore resilience as a strategic organizational capability — one that helps leaders, teams, and institutions not just survive uncertainty, but grow stronger because of it.

Meet two of our speakers:
Johnathan Jaya Sudhir — Executive Director of CXS Analytics, a specialist in talent intelligence, strategic workforce planning, organizational design, and AI-enabled people analytics.

Bo Discarga — Founder & CEO of Betterteem AI®, an HR tech executive and thought leader in workforce analytics, helping organizations bridge human capability and technological innovation.

More speakers to be announced soon — stay tuned!

Whether you're a PSTD member or joining us for the first time, this is your chance to connect with the community and gain practical strategies for leading through change.
