Great Keynote Speakers

Steve Gilliland
Enjoy The Ride
“If you take care of people, the business will follow.” Using that as his motto, Steve Gilliland, CSP, author of Enjoy the Ride, will reveal the way to face conflicting demands in an unforgiving business environment that keeps getting tougher. From the beginning when he shows you how to reignite your passion, to the end with his compelling challenge to “never lose your focus,” he releases an “explosion of enthusiasm” that is absolutely contagious. You will be purpose-driven rather than process-driven, and you will make a difference. Fasten your seatbelt and hold on as one of America’s most entertaining keynote speakers show you how to Enjoy The Ride!

Murder at the HR Awards” presented by the Valley Players Theater.
At the presentation of the First Annual HR Social Mission Award, given to the HR professional who best reflects the social mission and culture of PayData, the guests of honor are not all that they seem. Nominees include Mr. Rudolf Brownnoser, Miss Ida Careless, Mrs. Percilla Toogood, and a few other unique characters that mingle with the audience and share their qualifications, and perhaps their secrets. After introductions of the nominees by the president of the National Society for the Further Advancement of HR, Ms. Patience Worthy, the room is suddenly plunged into darkness! When the lights come back on, someone in the presentation area is no longer with us. With the audience's help, and the assistance of Sheriff Zeb Nabbim, the mystery will be solved!
Dinner and Evening Entertainment - join us for food and a unique social networking opportunity on Wednesday, October 27th from 6:00 – 8:30: includes appetizers, dinner, dessert, coffee, tax & gratuity along with a Murder Mystery - $40.
Spend the night and don't miss any of the activities and networking!
