About this Event

Once in a while an event series is born that shakes things up, it makes you think differently, it leaves you inspired. That event is DisruptHR.

+12 speakers, 5 minutes each, and slides rotate every 15 seconds. Teach us something, but make it quick.

If you’re an HR professional, a CEO, a technologist, a community leader – and you’ve got something to say about talent, culture or technology – Disrupt is the place.
