Daniel Pink, acclaimed author of #1 New York Times bestsellers Drive and To Sell is Human, will kick off Day 2 of the i4cp 2018 Conference: Next Practices Now, an event focused on cutting-edge business practices that’s highly praised by talent, HR, and learning leaders.

Designed for business leaders to showcase new talent management practices that drive market growth and organizational agility , the i4cp 2018 Conference takes place March 26–29, 2018 at the Fairmont Scottsdale Princess. To ensure the conference reputation as a forum for open sharing and collaboration, the annual event is closed to vendors and consultants.

Other recently announced speakers include:

• Brené Brown, three-time #1 New York Times best-selling author and renowned scholar
• Andrew Razeghi, ranked among Inc. magazine’s top 100 business and leadership speakers
• Candice Morgan, head of inclusion and diversity at Pinterest

Pink will present information from his latest book, WHEN: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing—in stores January 9, 2018, and available now for preorder. In line with the conference’s focus on the underlying practices and strategies that lead to organization agility, Pink will explore the issue of timing.

Everyone knows that timing is everything, but most of us don’t know much about timing itself. Our lives are a never-ending stream of “when” decisions—when to start a business, schedule a class, get serious about a person, etc.—yet we make those decisions based on intuition and guesswork. In many ways, timing is often viewed as a combination of art and luck. Pink’s presentation will show that timing is really a science, and how by practicing the science of timing we can improve the way we live, work, and succeed.

The i4cp 2018 Conference is often ranked among the best HR events of the year due to its exclusive senior-level networking atmosphere and forward-looking presenters. Registration is now open – sign up by September 30 to save $500.
