The summit starts November 19, 2026.

The summit takes place at The Waterfront Beach Resort.

The listed audience includes CHROs, C-level peers, and HR leaders.

It is most useful for sitting CHROs and chief people officers in Southern California who want candid discussion with peers, since the program is local, peer-led and interactive, and speakers include HR executives such as Jose Aguayo and Tasmin Plater. Gartner organizes it and Maven Clinic, O.C. Tanner and Globalization Partners host, so some content will reflect vendor and advisory interests; HR staff below the executive level, or people wanting a wide exhibit hall, would get less from a small closed gathering.

Executives at CHRO summits usually wear business casual, such as blazers and open collars, and the beach resort setting in Southern California makes relaxed, polished attire the norm.
