Your HR Sherpas and Route Map to the Top of The Elevate Summit

Have you ever tried to summit Mount Everest?

Me neither.

But if I did, I imagine I would spend a lot of time preparing for the trek. I would probably search tirelessly for the very best Sherpas to help me navigate the treacherous mountains, volatile weather, and extreme altitude. I imagine I would study route maps, and make sure I knew exactly what the plan was. This is the smart way to go, am I right?

So, naturally, to climb to the highest peaks of human resources, you need HR gurus and thought leaders—or HR Sherpas—who know the way, and you need a foolproof map for the excursion. This is precisely why we’re excited today to introduce you to a few of our keynote speakers and the agenda for The Elevate Summit (April 26-28!).

HR Sherpas

Each of these keynote speakers is uniquely prepared to help HR professionals navigate through the various challenges they face in the business world today and reach the absolute summit of human resources.

Susan’s books Quiet and Quiet Power have been on the New York Times bestseller list for over four years. And Bill Gates named her TED talk—viewed 16 million times!—one of his all-time favorite talks.
