What do you get when you take four and a half thousand HR practitioners and put them together in Las Vegas? No, it’s not the start of a bad joke, it’s the reality of Dayforce’s 2023 Insights conference.
Whilst the adult playground known as ‘sin city’ is mostly synonymous with gambling and drinking one too many shandies, HR practitioners flocked from across the globe not to fritter away their paycheques on blackjack, but instead to hear about the latest innovations from one of the world’s biggest global people platforms.
The four-day conference was packed with insights from leaders both hailing from Dayforce and many of their partners, yet it was the opening talks that caused many murmurs of excitement among attendees. This is because the key entertainment for the evening was both a grand reveal of Dayforce’s huge plans for the coming year, and an exclusive conversation between Dayforce Co-CEO Leagh Turner, and iconic actor turned philanthropist, Kevin Bacon.
Some may wonder what insight Bacon, who is known for his roles in films such as Footloose, Apollo 13 and Tremors (as well as having acted alongside near enough every actor of note within the last thirty years), could offer a vast crowd of HR practitioners.
