Attend one of our speaking sessions:

Monday, October 26
3:30 – 4 pm

AI can free up capacity, but time saved alone doesn’t show up in the P&L. Turning it into measurable value is a work and workforce design problem, and one for HR to own. This session shows how to build a Work & Workforce Foundry: a capability HR develops by redesigning its own work first, earning the credibility to help the business redesign work, reshape human roles and redeploy released capacity where it drives impact.

Speaker: Camille Prost, From Function to Foundry, HR as the Architect of Work and Workforce


Monday, October 26
6:05 – 6:25 pm

Organizations invest heavily in rewards, benefits, wellbeing, technology and workforce programs, but investment alone doesn’t create value. Learn to identify utilization bottlenecks, design targeted communications, and use analytics to measure adoption ROI. Attendees will leave with a practical framework to align total rewards, increase program relevance, and turn employee action into performance.

Speaker: Ricca Racadio, US & Canada Change Management Solution Leader


Tuesday, October 27
12:50 – 1:10 pm

To drive enterprise performance, organizations must identify and invest in their most critical roles and skill segments. This session explores how organizations identify how work is changing, which skills matter, where critical talent sits and what motivates them. Attendees will learn how targeted rewards, tailored career paths, development programs, and enhanced employee experiences help attract, grow, and retain critical talent.

Speakers: Molly Leeds, Job Architecture and Skills Solution Lead, Marsh Workforce and Rewards

Lisa Stella, US Talent Management Solutions Leader
