Employer Coalition (POWER Series) - Humans, Not Resources: Rethinking Workplace Culture

March 5, 2026 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM (CST)

Description

In today's fast-paced, results-driven world, workplace culture is more than just a buzzword, it's the foundation of a thriving, resilient organization. This presentation explores the critical importance of cultivating a workplace culture that prioritizes empathy, respect, and human connection. When employees are treated as complex humans, not just as roles or resources, engagement rises, innovation flourishes, and retention improves. We'll dive into the tangible benefits of a people-first culture, backed by research, and examine the consequences of neglecting the human element in the workplace. Attendees will gain insights into how leaders and teams can foster environments where individuals feel seen, heard, and valued.  Whether you're a CEO, manager, HR professional, or team member, this session will equip you with practical strategies to create a culture where people and performance can truly thrive.
