11:00 am - 11:35 am "Let's Give'em Something to Talk About"- The Power of Engaging the Employee Voice
Companies today face the challenge of engaging their employees in meaningful dialogue - whether it be due to geography, flex work – or simply that many people feel that speaking up has a cost associated with it. In this talk we will examine:
•How technology can humanize the employee experience
•The power of allowing all voices to be heard which results in organizations benefiting from higher engagement
•The value of gathering ideas and solutions from a broader, more diverse population
11:35 am - 12:10 pm Using Data and Technology to Drive a Talent-Focused Culture
When technology advances, it enables us to move more effectively and efficiently… in theory. Oftentimes, however, technology fails to integrate with our current processes and ends up as clunky, disjoint applications that are ineffective and cumbersome. In this session, Michelle Buczkowski will detail the journey PNC has taken to create a cohesive and intelligent human capital data program and how they have utilized technology to inform and improve at all levels of HR and the business as a whole. Topics discussed will include:
•Laying a clean foundation and maintaining it so you can build talent strategies and programs on top
•Creating strong HR groups and fostering communication amongst the different teams to integrate seamless technology and discover new uses for existing data and programs
•Reshaping the talent review process, combining human capital data with new technology to create a more efficient program that is also easy to analyze and adjust

1:20 pm - 2:00 pm Diversity's Dividends, Getting Business Critical with an Inclusion Strategy
Despite widespread studies showing that diverse companies routinely outperform their competition, most companies still lag behind in actual results to diversify their executive staff, corporate boards and management ranks. Often, initiatives for diversity and inclusion stumble because of lack of commitment to outcomes, an incomplete strategy or a misunderstanding of how diverse talent pipelines are built and maintained. In this session, one company will show how it diversified its leadership ranks by focusing on how talent management could fill roles that better served the customer needs of a diverse client market. Learn more about:
•Designing internal hiring and success programs that boost diversity outcomes
•Analyzing your employer brand from the vantage point of underrepresented employees
•Overhauling talent management programs to support retention and development of diversity

5:20 pm - 6:00 pm Using Design Thinking to Craft High-Impact Employee Experiences
As companies increasingly take a data-based approach to organizational design, talent leaders need to rethink the design of their org charts. Teamwork, agility and collaboration rule the day. But as teams become increasingly composed of employees spread across time zones and work becomes more project-based, HR must take a step back to craft employee experiences designed for the future of work. In place of traditional work hierarchies, future employees may well be measured on their ability to collaborate with both internal employees, outside suppliers and external networks of contingent talent. Managers, instead of occupying fixed roles, may be hired on a project-to-project basis, valued less for their track record than their adaptability to new challenges.
•Why real-time feedback will become essential to crafting organizational design
•How design thinking can help traditional Talent leaders adapt to a more fluid work stream
•Developing talent strategy that reflects the increasingly global marketplace and a digital customer base
This is a fast-moving, multi-topic session comprised of three Quick Fire Presentations that will be completed in 30 minutes of total time (10 minutes for each challenge).
