Perspective with room to think.

RedThread Summit is a working retreat for leaders shaping what's next.

June 23 – 25
Snowbird, Utah

About the Summit

The RedThread Summit isn’t a conference. It’s a working retreat built for senior HR, Talent, L&D, and People Analytics leaders who want to think differently about work. The experience is small by design, focused on conversation, collaboration, and practical application.

Sessions are informed by RedThread research and shaped by the expertise and curiosity of every participant. There are no stages, no keynotes, and no spectators — only people who come ready to learn, challenge, and contribute.
