Leading with Bravery:
How Strategic Leaders Demonstrate Courage in Challenging Times

Here's a sneak peak at what to expect:

Keynote Address - Join us as we kick off the forum with an insightful keynote from Steve Pemberton, Founder & CEO of The Lighthouse Academy and former CHRO of Workhuman and VP/Chief Diversity Officer with Walgreens & Monster. Steve will share his expertise on the topic of "Leading with Bravery," offering actionable strategies that you can immediately apply in your leadership role.

Interactive Discussions - Following the keynote, engage in dynamic hackathon-style discussion at each table. Collaborate with fellow attendees to tackle current challenges and develop innovative solutions that you can implement right away in your workplace on how to lead your teams in challenging times.

From Monster.com to Walgreens, Steve has consistently served in leadership positions that have furthered his gift for seeking the greater good and creating engaged communities. Most recently, he served as the chief human resources officer for Workhuman, a technology company that delivers performance management and employee engagement solutions to corporations worldwide. There, he avidly fostered the company's goal of inspiring HR leaders to embrace more humanity and cultivate a higher purpose in the workplace. He is exceptionally skilled at creating inspiring, innovative work environments while recognizing and developing talent. His 'next practices' approach has successfully created award-winning organizational cultures that create maximum performance.

Beyond his professional achievements, Steve is also widely known as the author of two critically acclaimed and best-selling books. His first effort, A Chance in the World, shares his extraordinary story of how he defied seemingly Impossible odds as an orphan navigating the perils of the foster care system - all while trying to solve the mystery of his own identity. Steve's second book, The Lighthouse Effect: How Ordinary People Can Have an Extraordinary Impact in the World, offers practical encouragement for becoming a "human lighthouse" - turning personal pain into a purposeful mission to help others. With a steadfast commitment to people and community wellbeing, Steve continues to give abundantly of his time, talent and convictions.
