Reinvigorating a Remote Workforce and Leading for Peak Productivity
It seems like in 2022 everything needs a “rethink.” Politics. The environment. And far from least of all, work itself. As businesses still grapple with working remotely during a pandemic, it’s clear that many organizations and their workers need help. The New York Times and CNBC, for example, note how the higher productivity seen early in the work-from-home shift may be leading to burnout and “wiped out” motivation. In this session, Rey Ramirez and Jason Walker, the co-founders of Thrive HR Consulting, will discuss how to reinvigorate a remote workforce and lead them into both peak productivity and job satisfaction. Jason and Rey will share their perspectives on how compensation, benefits and total rewards should be addressed to adapt to the “new normal”.

Navigating Successful Mergers and Acquisitions for Startups
Mergers and Acquisitions are complicated and require a high degree of skills and expertise to navigate and execute. Research finds that 70% to 90% of all M&A deals fail, and it's not just small firms, but also corporations such as Microsoft, and Google.
Getting acquired by another firm not only validates that your company is a rising star in your industry, but it can also provide a financing bridge you might have been trying to fill. In this session, Jason and Rey will explore strategies for preparing for a successful acquisition and share how entrepreneurs can minimize any chances of failure.
