Opening Keynote

PATTY MCCORD

Author & Former Chief Talent Officer, Netflix





FEATURING KEYNOTE SPEAKER AND WORKPLACE INNOVATOR PATTY MCCORD

Patty McCord served as Chief Talent Officer of Netflix for 14 years and helped to create the famous Netflix Culture Deck. Since it was first posted on the web, the Deck has been viewed more than 15 million times, and Sheryl Sandberg has said that it may be the most important document ever to come out of Silicon Valley. A veteran of established enterprises and start-ups alike, McCord has vast experience building winning cultures. McCord will share how building a culture of freedom and responsibility strips away the constraints that can thwart high-performers so your teams can be lean, nimble, motivated and happy.

Leaders will gain fresh perspectives on how HR investment can deliver clear strategic impact, while their HR business partners will receive insight and tips to drive stakeholder support for L&D initiatives and achieve more successful outcomes.

Join your peers to be part of the conversation, discover best practices, and learn from real-world implementation and successes so you can meet your current and future people challenges.
