Checking the culture box isn't enough
Everyone's talking about culture, but creating an organizational culture that informs business strategy, drives employee engagement, and attracts talent is challenging for even the strongest leaders.
Grab a front-row seat in Denver this October for a first-of-its-kind culture conference that adds substance, expertise, and depth to the discipline of workplace culture. This event brings together CultureTalk Partners and their guests for hands-on workshops, thought-provoking forums, and heartfelt discussions over shared meals. This will be a unique opportunity to gather with other professionals at the forefront of culture thought-leadership.
You won't want to miss it!
