“The goal of Culture First has always been to bring the HR and talent community together to share ideas, discuss challenges, and inspire one another. This year’s theme, Humanity at Work is more important than ever, as this next transition period provides the opportunity for people to reset and redefine how they show up at work – be it in the office or remotely,” said Didier Elzinga, CEO and Founder, Culture Amp. “Companies that shape their culture to focus on humanity at work – that listen to their people and support them to create and grow will have the competitive advantage.”
Culture First is a conference for HR professionals, people leaders, and Culture First advocates who wish to make the world of work better. All attendees will learn from renowned thought leaders, skillful HR practitioners, and experts in the people and culture worlds on topics like the hybrid workforce, upskilling managers, building an anti-racist workplace, and more.
Headlining speakers for Culture First Americas include Susan David, Ph.D., and Professor Ibram X. Kendi.
