Sessions
With so many changes in the global landscape impacting HR, sharing our product
vision has never been more important. In this session, we’ll reveal our Nakisa Hanelly
2020 Winter Release, preview our new, ground-breaking Diversity & Inclusion
product, and give you a peek into what’s in store for the future.
OPG’s Claudia Leavens and Nakisa’s E.J. Marin discuss efficient execution of
organizational design and business transformation and how HR can engage with a
broader range of stakeholders, including Finance, OD, and HRIS, to better strategize
business operations.
Panel Discussions
Innovation is at the heart of everything we do. In this lively panel discussion, our
subject matter experts and featured customer will discuss how the challenges of 2020
can inspire product innovation, advance development, and change how the world of
HR uses technology to adapt.
Workshop
As the business world navigates disruptions, transitions and uncertainty, organizations must move beyond managing talent to systemically and simultaneously synchronizing the work, workforce, and workplace. These components of the people side of the business are often addressed in isolation, without much consideration of the system they comprise. Our research shows high-performing organizations address these three elements in concert as interrelated components, not in silos or as a sequence. We will discuss the implications of this systemic approach and answer questions on how to make this synchronization a reality.

Sessions
Walmart’s Shawn Husband and Nakisa’s Imran Mia discuss the evolving partnership
