Aligning Communications, HR, and IT for Growth in the Next-Gen Workplace
WHERE
WHEN
*Pop Summit is for senior professionals at organizations with 1k+ employees. This is a limited capacity event. Attendance will be confirmed following registration review.
When Communications, HR, and IT operate in separate lanes, they unwittingly create a fragmented employee experience—at a time of historic disconnect. It creates lack of clarity, unnecessary hurdles, and stifles performance.

But this moment also presents a real opportunity to work differently and cohesively, to start building the experience people expect and the performance they need.
Join us at Pop Summit Palo Alto to explore The New Convergence: How Communications, HR, and IT can shape a next-gen workplace ready for what's ahead.
