China will share personal observations from her experience as a CEO/President and as a corporate board member on the ROI of creating a more human workplace culture. Despite popular attention being paid in the business media about the importance of “engagement,” progress has been minimal in the big picture. She’ll share mounting evidence that a tipping point in favor of humanity in the workplace is close at hand. You’ll be interested to learn about the positive evidence showing that organizations that embrace their humanity are outperforming their competitors.
