The stage is set for a morning of interactive education as the Women in HR Technology Summit gets underway Oct. 1. The summit–the kickoff event of the HR Technology Conference & Exposition®, which is being held in Las Vegas through Oct. 4–features the voices of women who have harnessed HR technology to bring business success, and whose contributions recognize the bottom-line value of gender equity in the workplace. The nine sessions at the summit, now in its fourth year, are designed to provide attendees actionable strategies for advancing both inclusion and innovation at their respective organizations.
“Now in its fourth year, the Women in HR Tech Summit has achieved considerable momentum,” says Jeanne Achille, chair of the summit. “It’s an action-packed program backed by a powerful community designed to help attendees identify the technologies and cultural changes that will support their D&I initiatives. It’s exciting to know we’re driving real workplace change with tech-based gender-equality solutions.”
