With fewer opportunities for spontaneous socialization and organic connection, employees are feeling increasingly isolated, company culture at numerous organizations has eroded significantly, and sense of belonging has been impacted.

Join this session to discuss:

• Building happy and connected teams
• Keeping workforce strategies, whether in-person, hybrid or remote, human-centered and personal
