Why do two employees experience the same decision so differently? This session unpacks the emotional and psychological drivers behind fairness perceptions, helping HR leaders anticipate reactions, prevent unnecessary escalation, and design responses that feel fair, not just compliant.

Speaker: Dr. Konstantin P. Cigularov, Ph.D.

Bio: Dr. Konstantin Cigularov—also known as Dr. K—is an award-winning professor of Industrial-Organizational Psychology, a seasoned organizational consultant, and a national speaker on leadership, workplace emotions, and employee well-being.
