“The practitioners at the conference are my peers. They're people that have trod the roads that I have not, and I value that.”
Cameron Hedrick

“What I love about the i4cp conference that separates it from other events, is that there aren't vendors there actively selling. So, you have time to get the information you need and talk about real problems with people who have [been in your shoes].”
Sharawn Tipton
Chief People Officer, LiveRamp
“I'm truly a lifelong learner, and it's great to learn not only from keynote speakers and research insights, but also from my fellow HR practitioners.”

i4cp's conference provides a really authentic and effective conversation. I look forward to strategies that we can genuinely take home, and it is personal enough that we could dive effectively into the challenges being faced.

The conference provided an important reminder that we are not alone. There are truly no unique work challenges that no one has ever heard of. I gained solid insight into next practices, and to the horizon of Human Resources.
