10:45 - 11:15 a.m. - Empowering Your Workforce

Presented by Noel Hopkins, Digital Growth Director, CLA

The advancement of automation and AI can sometimes be viewed negatively in the workforce, but we believe it can empower your people, release the “pinch points” for your business, and ultimately support faster growth.

11:15 a.m. - 12:15 p.m. - CLA Economic Update and Industry Insights

Presented by Dean Bosco, Principal, CLA Wealth Advisory

2023 continues to be a year of flux, as concerns about slowing economic growth contrast with strong business profitability. This session will discuss how business owners and investors can navigate this uncertainty — with insights on the economy, industry, financial markets, and policy.

Presented by Sarah Turner, Faurote Group

"Hardy" does not mean being impervious to stress or being someone who can eliminate it from their lives. It is so much more about somebody learning what to do with stress and treating it as a partner on the path to productive life outcomes.

  • Discuss how our behaviors may be altered by moral illusions
  • Recognize the difference between legal rights and ethical responsibility
