The organizer identifies HR professionals and talent leaders as attendees.
It is most useful for HR professionals and talent leaders working on skills-based workforce planning, AI in talent development or change management, since those are the four program themes and the speaker list is drawn from practitioners in those areas. At $1,995 with group discounts offered, it makes the most sense for HR teams sending several people to split up the themes; individual recruiters or specialists outside talent strategy would get less from a program pitched at strategy and leadership.
HR conferences usually call for business casual, and the Disney Springs, Florida setting in October is warm, so lighter fabrics and comfortable walking shoes are common.
