- American Health Policy Institute CEO Dr. Tevi Troy and the Association's health care team led an interactive discussion with the membership about the Association's objectives amidst a changing health care landscape and its impact on the future of employer-sponsored health benefits.
- It was also clear the membership continues to believe private sector efforts remain the best path toward reforming the system. Health Transformation Alliance Chair L. Kevin Cox, Chief Human Resources Officer of American Express Company, led a briefing by the HTA team of the considerable progress by the initiative, noting, "Waiting for something to happen out of Washington has not been a great strategy; this is our opportunity to control our destiny, both for our companies and our employees."
- Workplace 2020 Initiative Chair Mara E. Swan, Executive Vice President, Global Strategy and Talent for ManpowerGroup, led an exploration of questions such as the future of various workplace regulations and how the business community can work with the President, citing the Workplace 2020 Initiative as the blueprint for the Association's lobbying objectives.
- Center On Executive Compensation Chair Pam Kimmet, Chief Human Resources Officer, Cardinal Health Inc., led a discussion of how CHROs can help add long-term value in their companies through a focus on linking incentive metrics with strategy and sustained value and the increasing focus being placed on environmental, social and governance (ESG) metrics. She noted that "investors are starting to look more closely at the alignment between incentives and business strategy and asking 'why' when they don’t see that alignment."
