Governing Body members host this dinner for attendees to launch the event with an evening of peer networking.

What's your community's top priority? What do your C-Level peers consider the largest hurdle to accomplishing their goals? What percentage of your peers are experiencing the same struggles as you? In this fun, highly interactive, game-show-style session, we'll put your knowledge to the test and provide insight into your community.

Come on down to:

• Compete in a data-driven, community-specific, gamified quiz
• Learn more about the struggles and opportunities reported by members of your community
• Share and expand on these reported goals and challenges

Stakeholders, customers, and government entities are demanding responsible and explainable AI.

Join this session to discuss how to:

• Operationalize AI with confidence in your organization
• Better manage AI risk to avoid brand degradation
• Scale while complying with the growing AI regulations

Change is inevitable. The one constant in the midst of all the change, stress, and uncertainty we face at work and in life is us. Leaders with a strong sense of emotional intelligence (EQ), a willingness to be courageous and vulnerable, and the capacity to inspire others in a genuine way, have a distinct advantage in keeping their teams engaged and motivated in any circumstances. 

In this program, author and thought leader Mike Robbins will share practical tips for:

• Learning to be transparent in a way that’s both liberating and inspiring
• Connecting at a deeper level with your teams and building real trust
• Dealing effectively with change and uncertainty — and thriving in the process
