Help Us Drive Change Through Education! [Call for Topics & Speakers]

Written by Andrea Tarrell | Tue, Oct 30,2012 @ 08:48 PM

Over the past year, we’ve held nearly 40 HNI University events both virtually and live in the Milwaukee, Chicago, and Grand Rapids areas. Our HNI University seminars are designed to be intensive learning experiences targeted toward business leaders, HR professionals, and risk managers.

We often get questions as to why we invest the time in putting on these events.  While they certainly require time and effort, HNI University represents our most important commitment: to drive change through the education of our clients, our industry, and ourselves. 

Businesses today operate in a more complicated environment than ever before. Ongoing education is essential to staying on top of the maze of governmental rules, regulations and emerging industry issues.  We hope that everyone who attends one of our HNI U events walks away inspired to spark change in their own organizations.

Help us select our 2013 calendar of events! 

We’re currently developing our 2013 calendar of events.  What problems would you like to see us cover in next year’s schedule?  Any speakers you’ve seen that you think might be a good fit?  Share your suggestions with us in comments!
