Keynotes

Keynote by speaker Brandon Peele: The Key to Retaining Employees is Purpose

According to a recent McKinsey & Co. study, 89% of employees want purpose-driven work, but only 15% think it is possible at their company. The resulting “purpose gap” is one of the key drivers of the Great Reshuffle. Unfortunately, traditional approaches to creating a mission-driven culture, such as values-driven performance reviews and trumpetting the company’s mission and values at all-hands meetings, on walls and websites, do not work.

Today’s employees need to find a sense of personal purpose and fulfillment at work in order to find their unique connection to their organization’s mission and values. Brandon will share the latest research and best practices for activating a purpose-driven organization, resulting in a 175% increase in employee productivity, a 7.4 month increase in tenure, and 333% increase in organizational commitment.

Keynote by speaker Brandon Peele: The Missing Element in DEI: Purpose

Most DEI strategies don't work. A Harvard Business Review study of 800 organizations over the last 20 years showed that the DEI field as a whole has produced neutral to negative outcomes. This occurs for two reasons:

1. Reliance on one-time trainings, resulting in 90% of the information being forgotten within 7 days and a regression to biased behaviors within 24 hours, and

2. The lack of employee purpose activation which produces numerous lasting inclusive behaviors, such as compassion, curiosity, generosity, and other-centeredness, and a 4x reduction in anxiety in diverse environments.

Brandon will share the latest research and best practices for creating sustainable DEI progress, resulting in over ¾ of participants creating new daily habits and 96% of participants experiencing empathy from their diverse peers.

Keynote by speaker Brandon Peele: Purpose and Belonging are the Heart and Lungs of Employee Wellness

Burnout, languishing, isolation, and presenteeism are plaguing workplaces. Unfortunately, most employee wellness approaches feature apps, intranet tips and incentives for healthy behavior, resulting in only 24% of employees using such programs. Wellness must be re-envisioned from the inside-out and be centered in employee purpose and belonging.

Brandon will share the latest research and best practices for building an award-winning wellness program, resulting in 7+ years of longevity, 32% fewer doctors visits, 9.5 fewer days of PTO per employee per year, a 64% increase in fulfillment and 538% increase in resilience.

As a purpose-driven organization, it left us all with a deeper understanding of our individual purpose, made us think about how we enhance our connection to each other and how we develop new skills to move forward with purpose. I was particularly charged by your closing, as it filled us with renewed passion to collaborate purposefully... Thank you, Brandon - you provided tremendous inspiration to our group.

Brandon was a hit at our hospital! He came and led an interactive and engaging workshop. Brandon’s energy was amazing! He was comfortable, authentic, and powerful. The workshop was equal parts research and heart. I truly feel that our residents got a lot out of his workshop. I would have Brandon back in a heartbeat!
