Gonzalez Convention Center in San Antonio, Texas.

During this session, leading experts will share advice on how to: build and foster balanced teams, use assessment tools for hiring, create a culture that values the depth that differences can bring, and leverage balanced teams to achieve richer solutions. Attendees will walk away with real tools and techniques that can match the right person to the right job, and learn tips for nurturing team balance to achieve maximum success.

In addition, Michelle Kozin, Vice President of Learning & Communications, PI Worldwide, will be available at the company's booth (#208) to provide details and best practices on the advantages of applying workforce analytics to the supply chain industry. Please visit during exhibit hours:
