Learning at the C-suite level requires a different approach. Irresistible 2024 provides the experience of a lifetime.

CHROs have specific challenges and unique opportunities. Our team’s ongoing CHRO roundtable discussions and one-on-one meetings tell us that many CHROs are focusing on:

• Evolving HR for company growth
• Scaling infrastructure
• Measuring the impact of HR initiatives
• Building a remote-first work culture
• Supporting the agenda of fellow leaders
• Using governance for cross-collaboration

The Josh Bersin Company understands these initiatives, and when curating the session’s focus, speakers, and design for the Irresistible 2024’s CHRO learning track , it sought to bring each topic into discussion. The conference planning committee worked closely with Bill Pelster, company co-founder , to ensure that sessions not only tackle these big conversations, but exceed executive expectations while providing a thoughtful, impactful learning experience.

Speakers joining the CHRO track include:

• Amy Coleman , CVP, Human Resources and Corporate Functions, Microsoft
• Christopher J. Fernandez , Corporate Vice President, HR Services and Digital Employee Experiences, Microsoft
• Nickle LaMoreaux , SVP HR & CHRO, IBM Corporation
• Keith Sonderling , Commissioner, United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC)
• Ron Hetrick , Vice President, Staffing Strategy and Sr. Labor Economist, Lightcast

Bill Pelster’s 25+ years in the consulting, HR, and L&D space in C-suite positions gives him a unique lens into the CHRO role in large and mid-size companies. As the leader and facilitator of the CHRO track at Irresistible 2024 , his depth of experience is reflected in each session, ensuring that the CHROs in attendance have the most robust, comprehensive, and collaborative experience possible.

Along with the phenomenal speakers, CHRO track topics align with trends in today’s business landscape and are grounded in Josh Bersin Company research. Attendees will discuss:

• The Post-Industrial Landscape and the difficulties associated with creating growth opportunities in this economic environment. Today’s market is characterized by chronic talent shortages, massive disruption caused by AI and technology, and industry convergence. Global experts will illuminate the emerging opportunities and share their experiences.
• Cultivating a Dynamic Organization through infrastructure scaling, CEO agenda support, and functional cross-collaboration. Top-performing companies are investing in continuous transformation, skill-based talent models, team-based rewards, upskilling, reskilling, and cultures fit for a skills meritocracy. Attendees and experts will have the chance to explore what they’re facing, learning, and implementing within their companies to innovatively create dynamism organization-wide.
• Rewiring HR and Leadership to drive success across the business. Throughout the CHRO program, leaders will explore how their companies are consolidating efforts to set the right people strategy, reimagine organizational structures, rethink leadership, and put the right HR technology in place.?
• ...and more, including the profound regulatory impacts and practical implications of the AI revolution.
