Culturati: Summit
Culturati: Summit is the premier corporate culture event for executives, investors and scholars. Along with our Knowledge Partners, Microsoft and McKinsey & Company, our sponsors and our Culturati: Scholars, we unite powerhouse speakers, interactive sessions and engaging workshops to empower leaders with the latest research and tactics. During our two-day event held in Austin, we bring together the best minds to engage in intimate, transformative conversations on how culture contributes to company & employee success.
The components of what we do:
-
Data-driven. Curating research and cutting-edge content. Publishing important conversations, studies, and analyses on contemporary organizational culture issues.
-
Our in-person events bring together top C-suite leaders, investors, and scholars to share the latest research, playbooks, best practices, and war stories. Our virtual events, online sessions & publications provide this and tactical information to VPs, directors, and managers. Our community understands the power of culture in driving performance and helping our employees thrive.
-
Embracing our unique roles as the most trusted institutions today - including brands taking a stand, CSR, ESG, and Shared Value.
