MAINSTAGE INSPIRATION
More than one dozen speakers took to the Mainstage at the conference, which hosted several of the world’s leading experts in workforce development, gerontology, resident programming, branding, building design, technology, and artifi cial intelligence.
“Most people are way more focused on the weaknesses
and identifying fl aws and fi xing them. It has a lot to do with fear. We should be honoring strengths.” — Marcus Buckingham
Among the speaker lineup was Marcus Buckingham, who guides the vision of ADP Research Institute as co-head and talent expert. He also founded The Marcus Buckingham Company in 2006 with a clear mission: to instigate a “strengths revolution.” Buckingham spoke on opportunities to cultivate employees’ strengths to create a winning environment for staff and the organizations they serve.
