Event Overview Advancing the Use of Health Technology to Improve Quality of Care COVID-19 has changed everyone’s understanding of health in many ways that will impact our national community. The interplay between people, communities, and technology that govern them has forced us to rethink our approach to health care.

HR executives recognize that there is a greater need to do better to remain competitive in this job market. Workplace culture, diversity and inclusion, flexible work programs, leadership development, are but a few key factors driving workplace transformation. We will explore the increased demand for employer accountability when it comes to employee and workplace wellness.

Ensuring that we identify and remove barriers is essential, and prioritizing recruitment and talent development initiatives for women and people of diverse backgrounds can only mean further success. It is crucial that the future of work is people focused.
