Join us as we kick off the summer season with an energizing evening of connection, conversation, and fresh thinking about the future of HR!
We’ll start with a short, thought-provoking presentation by Zach Adams, a leading voice in talent strategy and organizational transformation. Zach will explore The Next Evolution of Human Resources: Moving to a People-Centric Future—offering insights into how forward-thinking organizations are reshaping their HR functions to prioritize the human experience.
Following the talk, we’ll break into focused roundtable discussions, giving you the chance to dive deeper into the topic with fellow HR professionals—and of course, there will be plenty of time for mixing, mingling, and happy hour fun.
This is your chance to reconnect with your LWHRA community, meet new faces, and leave inspired with new ideas to take back to your organization.
Light refreshments and drinks provided. Come ready to engage and celebrate the start of summer!
