  159.    <p><span style="font-size: 1.06em;">Brian Klaas has devoted his career to two big ideas: how to navigate uncertainty and chaos and how to fix broken systems to ensure that the best people end up in positions of leadership. </span></p>
  160.    <p><span style="font-size: 1.06em;">As the United States and the world undergoes profound, jarring shifts -- and organizations and individuals scramble for certainty -- Klaas argues that there can be hidden upsides to uncertainty. Drawing on examples from his research, ranging from history to science, Klaas will speak about three specific lessons that can be applied to sail more effectively through turbulent seas: </span></p>
  161.    <ul>
  162.        <li><span style="font-size: 1.06em;">more emphasis on experimentation within a changing environment; </span></li>
  163.        <li><span style="font-size: 1.06em;">greater investment in resilience; and </span></li>
  164.        <li><span style="font-size: 1.06em;">embracing the hidden power of randomness. </span></li>
  165.    </ul>
  166.    <p><span style="font-size: 1.06em;">These lessons speak not only to building sturdier organizations, but also to creating the personal resilience of the people who form their true foundation.<a name="brian_klaas" id="brian_klaas"> <span style="color: #ffffff;">link</span></a></span></p><hr />

  229. <p><span style="font-size: 1.06em;">Data Analytics has landed on everyone’s radar, but is HR really optimizing this enriched trove of information? Jenny Dearborn, our keynote speaker, is a leading thinker on this subject and is set to teach us this essential new skill for HR leaders: how to leverage data insights to build systems that directly link human growth and business&nbsp; success. To deliver this critical outcome, <strong><em>HR leaders pivot to become the&nbsp; strategic architects of their organizations’ future</em></strong>.</span></p>
  230. <p><span style="font-size: 1.06em;">Jenny will present the premise and research underlying her brand-new book, <em>The Insight-Driven Leader</em> (co-authored with Kelly Rider), and share a practical framework to align people strategy with business goals, design systems that reflect lived employee experiences, and communicate insights in ways that influence executive decision-making.</span></p>
  231. <p><span style="font-size: 1.06em;"><strong>This very special program will also feature a second component:</strong> a panel of our own in-the-trenches HR leaders drawn from HRLF nominees for our prestigious 2025 HR Leadership Award in honor of Bob Gatti. Amanda Bailey, this year’s Leadership Award winner, will facilitate a conversation that brings the years of experience of some of HR’s highly talented practitioners to the consideration of this&nbsp; conception of HR’s&nbsp; role in today’s organizations. </span></p>
  232. <p><span style="font-size: 1.06em;">We think this program will bring diverse perspectives together to produce a provocative, exciting dialogue in which we hope our attendees will engage as well!&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;</span></p>
