Welcome To The 2019 BigHR Event!

Imagine a day when the majority of organizations have an HR leader in the "C" Suite (and/or in the board room) so that future HR leaders won't have to hear about HR not having a "seat at the table" - EVER again!

The lift HR needs to accelerate this movement I believe lies in COMMUNITY so, today we come together to disrupt what we might hold too close, create new practices and connect so that we can go back and help raise others up to their potential.

I am  thrilled you're here to join us at our 4th Annual BigHR Event! Enjoy the day and each other!
