As an HR and Tech community, we are always looking for ways to improve how we can respond and/or get ahead of our changing workplace. Our main goal is to continually recruit, retain and engage employees, and it is getting more challenging than ever!

The Canadian HR community isn’t sitting back. Together, we are pushing forward to innovate. We have gathered exciting Canadian HR leaders and innovators that are making waves at every stage of the employee lifecycle.

This is the 5th in a series and the venue will accommodate 300-350 people so be sure to invite your colleagues along!

What to expect:

– You’ll hear what HR leaders and workplace innovators are doing in 2018 to improve the workplace
