Panel Discussion - Back to the Future: Employee versus Employer Expectations in a Post COVID World

The Value of Veteran Hiring/The Veteran Transition Process Moderated by: JD Lawless Panelists: Sean Sweeden, David Whitley, & Lakeitrai Luter Join us for a panel discussion with veteran leaders in the community that promote veteran hiring their organizations or that assist veterans in transition with key skills to include resumes, networking, and interviews, followed by a short Q&A session.

A panel of HR professionals from small, medium, and large companies will discuss what leave and remote benefits their companies provide to attract and retain employees with children. In this panel discussion, the panelists will provide background on issues they've faced both from an employee perspective but also management perspective on the obstacles they've encountered with their various leave policies.

Family planning & leave benefits are a hot topic and companies are looking for ways they can support their employees as they expand their families. These types of benefits are also a way for companies to increase retention, boost employee engagement and get a competitive edge on recruiting. Creating a culture of support for family planning goes beyond paid family leave and can include elements like mother-friendly worksites, flexible/remote work schedules and fertility/adoption benefits.
