#WISHRM22: Keynote Spotlight - Greg Hawks

Greg Hawks: Navigate Workplace Rapids

I had the great privilege to meet Greg Hawks in 2016 at the SHRM Annual Conference in Washington D.C.. We happened to both be mingling at a pub with a pile of other conference attendees.  Of course, shenanigators have a way of finding each other....

I immediately knew we'd be buddies. Greg is so fun, ridiculously energetic, and loves people! A kindred spirit!
 
While we had been connected for many years (6 to be exact), I finally had the opportunity to hear him speak this past June at the 2022 SHRM Annual Conference – a 7am morning session.
 
When Greg is on stage, he’s in his sweet spot. He will make you laugh, for certain. He will also make you think. He has a gift of analogies.

When I learned that he would be speaking at the WISHRM Conference, I knew I wouldn't miss it! 
 
If you’re connected with Greg on social media, you’ve probably seen his famous half-face airplane selfies, early morning run selfies, pictures of very happy people winning yellow rafts, and his weekly Instigator letters. He is definitely someone you need to meet in person.
 
Watch our very short Zoom interview to get a glimpse of what you can expect from his morning opening keynote. 

**Please excuse the audio spasms and frozen video. Technology, while awesome, isn't always perfect.

Be sure to join us in person or virtually for Greg’s session: Navigate Workplace Rapids on Thursday, October 13, from 8am-9:15am.  He will get you energized and ready to love obstacles!
