11th Annual Employer Leadership Summit
May 11, 2018
At our 2018 Annual Employer Leadership Summit (in its 11th year!), we explored the role of PURPOSE in creating vibrant, high-performing, and HEALTHY organizations.
We discussed ways to tackle the tough issues of our time, including the alarming rate of obesity and the opioid epidemic, and focused on breakthrough innovations and demonstrated results.
Interactive polling, engaging sponsors, and robust networking promoted a sense of optimism, collaboration and action.
“Loved the honest discussion on the ‘Thinking Differently’ panel. An issue I’m very passionate about.”
“All excellent presentations this year. Informative!”
“I like the mix of keynote and panel discussion. The innovator showcase was really impressive this year.”
