[Welcome and Opening Keynote] Team Human: Working Together in a Hybrid World
Join Reworked.co's Editor in Chief, Mike Prokopeak, World Wide Technology's Joe Berger, and keynote speaker, Douglas Rushkoff as we kick off the Digital Workplace Experience, "Enabling & Optimizing the Hybrid Workplace."
Our technologies and the workplace processes they support should provide human beings with the capabilities they need to create and exchange value together. We can no longer think of our employees as competing individuals, or measure their worth purely in terms of their utilitarian value. Instead of using big data and machine learning to replace human creativity, we must use it to empower human ingenuity. Harnessing wide-ranging research on human evolution, biology, and psychology, Rushkoff will reveal how fostering collaboration and celebrating deep competency gives human beings everything they need to thrive in the workplace of the future.

[Main Stage Keynote] Being Comfortable is Not the Goal
Learn how MSCI is taking a bold approach with their internal communications to engage and empower a more modern workforce.
—
Staying ahead of the curve means being modern and bold, but that isn’t always the easiest, most comfortable direction to take. MSCI, an investment solutions firm, is a catalyst of change in transforming the investment industry. Their approach to internal communications is no different.
At MSCI, an investment solutions firm, they have a stated mission to, “bring clarity to a complex investment world” — and they strive to do the same thing with their internal comms. The first step was to bring the company out of its comfort zone and move toward a more modern approach to communication and employee engagement. They realized that to attract stronger, tech-savvy employees, they needed to offer a digital experience we are all accustomed to outside of the workplace.
With plans to reinvigorate My MSCI, their employee communications platform powered by Firstup, they were able to move away from sending antiquated email and instead, delivering content to the endpoint each employee prefers, and sending content that would give their teams a reason to engage.
Join Allison Nelik, Executive Director, Head of Global Internal Comms at MSCI as she shares success stories and learnings from maintaining and promoting a global employee engagement platform, including:

[Breakout] An HR Tech Stack that Works for You
The past two years have brought about seismic changes in the way we work – from how, when, and where, to whom we decide to work for. At the same time, HR responsibilities have broadened from a primary focus on acquiring talent to include the entire employee experience. Change is happening faster than ever, but one thing that isn’t changing fast enough is the technology needed to keep HR in-the-know and business teams aligned in-the-flow of work.

[Breakout] Reskilling Your Workforce with Video
Reskilling workers allows businesses to be agile in the face of constant technological change, while investing in and showing loyalty to their existing workforce. Rather than hiring or outsourcing for every new skill, companies can train current, trusted employees to handle the shifts in their industry, whether small or seismic.
In this session we’ll discuss upskilling and reskilling, as well as the emotional and financial benefits of training your existing workforce to meet the ever-changing demands of our technology-driven work environment. You’ll learn about three main skill areas that global consulting firm McKinsey believes are critical to the future of work—social and emotional intelligence, technological skills, and cognitive skills—and how you can employ training that addresses each of these in-demand talents. We’ll then dive deeper into how video training is an ideal way to bridge competence differences in your workforce to achieve proficiency in learning new skills. You'll learn how video takes advantage of our cognitive processes to achieve better learning outcomes. Then we’ll bring it all together with specific examples of how video—from “how-to” to explaining complex concepts—is delivering successful learning outcomes for today’s largest companies.

Join us as we close day one of the Digital Workplace Experience, "Enabling & Optimizing the Hybrid Workplace."
To Emily Esfahani Smith, there’s a way for everyone to find professional and creative fulfillment through actively pursuing purpose, no matter their line of work. And finding out how is urgent: experts estimate that one of the very tangible consequences of disengagement is a staggering $7 trillion in lost productivity. In this invigorating keynote, Smith explores what employers can do to electrify a static environment, and retain the talent they worked hard to bring on board in the first place—as well as the changes workers can make to feel intrinsically motivated, engaged, and fulfilled. It’s all about harnessing the four pillars of meaning at work: belonging, purpose, transcendence, and storytelling. When employees feel like what they’re doing matters-to the company, to the community, and to themselves-they’re more productive, innovative, and more likely to participate in-and create-a positive workplace culture: and Smith will show you how.

Join Reworked.co's Editor in Chief, Mike Prokopeak, as we kick off day two of the Digital Workplace Experience, "Enabling & Optimizing the Hybrid Workplace."
Spearfishing and business intelligence theft has increased multifold since the shift to remote work, and recent cyber and ransomware attacks have cost companies millions of dollars. Given the current situation, transitioning skilled employees to security awareness has never been more difficult or more timely. How can we effectively prepare our employees now that data is not only secured through the office, but is now often left to the good graces of our home Internet? Internationally renowned cyber operations expert Tarah Wheeler is here to help. Mobility is part of modernity, says Wheeler. Remote work isn’t going anywhere, so it’s imperative that we learn how to properly secure employee data and company laptops at home-which means investing in our people and teaching them how to be personally secure. In this talk, she shares the ins-and-outs of digital security since both the cloud revolution and the telecommuting transition began—ensuring we can all confidently become good stewards of company data in the age of remote work.

[Breakout] Can your Processes REALLY Support your Hybrid Workers? The Importance of Permanent Flexibility in the New Normal
Just over two years ago, many companies were forced to embrace remote work. Although options for reintroducing the office environment are increasingly available, the workforce is not returning en masse. Rather than returning “full time” to the office setting, as much as 53% expect and embrace the notion of hybrid working arrangements.
But what does this mean for your company from a process perspective? Embracing hybrid means embracing permanent flexibility, where you can effectively adapt to the changes that stem from emerging viral strains, CDC and OSHA guidelines, and changing employee preferences. But is your company ready? Is your approach to process automation flexible enough to empower your workforce?

Join us as we close out day two of the Digital Workplace Experience, "Enabling & Optimizing the Hybrid Workplace."

Jay Van Bavel explores how identity is shaped and reshaped by the social worlds we are a part of, and what this means for our potential for collaboration, our performance, and social harmony at large. Groups are central to how people define themselves, explains Van Bavel and they can have profound effects on our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. This stimulating talk will show audiences how to apply cutting-edge findings in social psychology and cognitive neuroscience in the real world-including how shared identity can help us tackle our biggest problems with more unity, cohesion, and effective collaboration.

[Closing Keynote] The Power of Us: Harnessing Identity to Improve Performance
Join us as we close out day two of the Digital Workplace Experience, "Enabling & Optimizing the Hybrid Workplace."
While we may think of our identities as stable and coming from within; the reality is, they are constantly changing and powerfully influenced by our membership within different groups. Jay Van Bavel explores how identity is shaped and reshaped by the social worlds we are a part of, and what this means for our potential for collaboration, our performance, and social harmony at large. Groups are central to how people define themselves, explains Van Bavel and they can have profound effects on our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. This stimulating talk will show audiences how to apply cutting-edge findings in social psychology and cognitive neuroscience in the real world-including how shared identity can help us tackle our biggest problems with more unity, cohesion, and effective collaboration.
