July 25, 2022 – Corporate-values conference series and media outlet From Day One will host an ambitious series of events, both virtual and in-person, this summer and fall to address the rapidly changing relationship between workers and employers. This lineup of events will cover topics such as creating equity in a hybrid workplace, balancing productivity with well-being, employee engagement and retention, developing diversity in leadership, and supporting working parents and other caregivers. Each event underscores the essential question facing employers today: How can a company put people first, and ensure that its stated values and lived values are in alignment?
“We’re living in a time of great change and debate about the meaning, structure and culture of work and the role of business in society,” said Stephen Koepp, a co-founder and chief content officer of From Day One. “Our events provide a forum for exploring the values that will guide us along the path, among them inclusion, innovation, equity, transparency, and the need to balance productivity with compassion. Our mission is to connect and support the leaders and stakeholders who are navigating this sea change in workplace culture and values.”
From Day One returned to in-person conferences in 2022 for the first time since the pandemic started, hosting one-day events in Seattle, Silicon Valley, Denver, Houston, Atlanta, Chicago, Boston, Brooklyn, and Washington, D.C.
