It can be terrifying. It can make you angry. It can be very costly. But what if you are part of the organization that gets breached and the data is not only your data but your customer's data? The damage to your organization can be significant and it can impact your company's reputation and the bottom line. In this session, in this wide ranging discussion, Lou and Norman will help you identify where the risks are in your organization and strategies to mitigate those risks.

All CEOs must make difficult, sometimes unpopular decisions that impact the workforce. Some CEOs, however, are able to approach these decisions in a way that consistently creates positive talent outcomes year over year. But who are these CEOs and what do they do differently?

As the future of work evolves, a strategic approach – one that connects HR outcomes to business results, powered by smart and personalized technology – is likely to help companies win the war for talent and gain a competitive advantage. To achieve long-term objectives HR needs to be a key player in the organization's strategic planning process. Over the last decade, the nature of HR has evolved to be a strategic function of the business. It was once largely an administrative function focused on day-to-day responsibilities such as employee recruiting and selection and managing employee benefits. Now, the role that HR plays in attracting, developing and engaging talent is pivotal to the success of the organization.
