We know that the past few years have been especially challenging for HR professionals.  This year’s conference is focused on the future and how we can reset, reimagine, and rethink the world of work to continue to create Better Workplaces for a Better World.

We hope you’ll join us in Des Moines to hear from a fantastic group of speakers. 

The half-day pre-conference workshop presented by Tina-Marie Wohlfield will help us recharge and tap into the concept of radical curiosity as a skillset and asset that will directly impact organizational growth and success.

The opening keynote presenter is Joshua Evans, a high-impact and dynamic speaker who will get us fired up and engaged to help us think differently about the way companies conduct business, centered around identifying and living with true purpose.

Our closing keynote speaker is Shari Harley founder and president of Candid Culture.  Shari is known globally as an engaging, funny, content-rich, speaker and author of How to Say Anything to Anyone.  Her focus on bringing candor back to the workplace and creating a safe haven for employees, managers, and clients to speak honestly helps us create better and deeper relationships.

In addition to these high-powered keynote speakers and pre-conference presentation you’ll have access to 48 breakout sessions under 6 different tracks that will provide key takeaways to be implemented in your organizations. 

In addition to great speakers, the conference provides you with access to sponsors and exhibitors that provide technology, tools, and services that support HR professionals and the organizations we work for.  You’ll also have networking opportunities to get connected with your peers and fellow HR professionals to share best practices, challenges, and solutions.
