- Julia Landauer, NASCAR 2-time champion and motivational speaker will present "DRIVE: Using Technology and Data to Get to Victory." Landauer will discuss how understanding the biology of fear can help individuals approach things that scare them with confidence, and techniques for how to use technology to support innovative practices.
- Adam Smiley Poswolsky, workplace belonging expert, will present "Creating Human Connection and Community in the Era of Hybrid, AI, and Overwhelm." In a lonely, nonstop, overwhelmed work environment, workplace connection has withered. Behind every success, there's a team of people, a mentor, or someone supporting and encouraging individuals to be their best selves. In a remote and hybrid work world, it can be hard for team members to find this support. Smiley Poswolsky will provide practical insights on how to tackle these challenges. Attendees will leave the presentation with a toolkit to reimagine a collaborative, inclusive, people-first culture, and become an industry leader in the future of work.
- Alex Weber, award-winning entertainer and American Ninja Warrior will present "UNSTOPPABLE." In the fast-changing world of IT support and service management, everyone faces setbacks, fears, negativity, pressures, and uncertainty. But not everyone knows how to overcome these challenges. In this presentation, Weber will share his battle-tested system to achieve peak leadership and performance.
