Anna Binder, VP, People, MuleSoft
Culture Is Not Beer on Fridays. How to Develop a
Culture That Matters and Will Help You Win.
Company culture is all the buzz in the business world today. Some
companies provide free lunches, and onsite amenities like dog sitters
and hair salons; however, Anna Binder knows that boosting company
morale means more that free beer on Fridays. Changing company culture
for the new way to work is a requirement for the modern business but
creating a great one is not easy. Physical environment, technology,
transparency, leadership and many other factors all have a role to play
in creating an environment where employees are engaged, happy, and
always performing at high levels.
Anna will share with us the most important factors for creating a
desirable corporate culture, one which lead to being ranked by
Glassdoor as one of the best places to work in America as a great place
to work.

engage the millennial generation. Millennials craft their "career
path" more like a passport of life experiences and they pick up skills
like we would stamps on our passport. They are not climbing a "ladder".
They are motivated by purpose and curiosity. They are the first
digitally native generation - the rest of us adapted/faked it. They are
also the most socially engaged community, leveraging their network to
live their lives. So how does today's manager hire and fully engage
that type of talent? How long will they stay in any one position or
company? How does the new employer / employee compact work with this

Culture Transformation: The Key to Maximizing Value
from Enterprise Social Business Technologies
Transforming to an enterprise social business platform is a complex
undertaking and requires a clear strategic vision, objectives and
goals, leadership and stakeholder alignment, and a compelling case for
change in order to secure adequate funding and resourcing, and derive
maximum value from social technologies across the enterprise. It also
requires the ability to identify and prioritize business issues and
requirements in order to build a holistic, end-to-end implementation
road map, leveraging the right mix of social technologies, employee
engagement and change management, integration with business processes,
as well as an effective governance model, in order to be both
successful and sustainable.
Gloria Burke shares insights from the company’s industry recognized and

share the company’s approach to its cultural transformation that
resulted in an unprecedented 91% employee adoption and engagement rate
within 18 months of its implementation.

The Rise of Freelancing and How to Create Flexible
Teams
In a report released last month, Staffing Industry Analysts estimated
that independent consultants did $1 trillion of work globally in 2013.
Fifty three million Americans freelanced last year -- more than a third
of our workforce, and is projected to reach 40% by 2020. What does this
mean for your business? Rich Pearson will answer this question and
discuss other realities and opportunities businesses are facing,
including what might it look like if you rebuilt your team from
scratch; what are examples of businesses innovating their hiring
approach by tapping into freelancers; and how does hiring freelancers
and building flexible teams work?
