Workforce Understanding: Your Blueprint for Effective Tech Investment

17 Sep 2025
Oceanside D Ballroom
Core Session
Workplace leaders today face a major dilemma. Investors, employees, customers, communities, and other stakeholders expect them to keep pace with rapid technology evolution, especially AI, and all have proposals for how that should look. Every C-suite knows workforce technology is a critical piece of the puzzle, but a timely, scalable course of action in this complex area often seems impossible, especially when new solutions emerge constantly. 

Resources are finite, time is short, and decisions must be made – so how do leaders decide which workforce tech investments will deliver the greatest strategic value? The good news is that the answer lies in using a key ingredient we’ve been passively collecting for years: data. 

This session brings together strategist, technologist, and practitioner viewpoints to explore how people and work data can actively impact the vision and direction of our workplaces for the better. We’ll share a path for moving from traditional infrastructures to an interconnected, streamlined, and intelligent workforce platform model that puts the right information in the right hands at the right times – an approach we call workforce understanding. 

Join us to uncover the trends, architectural best practices, and measurable results required to craft an effective, future-ready workforce technology blueprint.
