Cover Image for Strategy and Planning In the Age of AI Disruption

Presented by

StartupExperts is a private community of experienced HR, Finance, and Ops leaders who understand that while we tend to be “teams of one” or leaders of small teams at individual companies, we all regularly encounter the same business challenges and believe that collectively we are stronger when we support each other. As a community of professionals we are passionate about learning, we want to build deeper relationships with our peers, and most importantly we find personal satisfaction in giving to others. We host 60+ virtual and in-person events annually. While most events are private, we do host open-to-the public events and will do more in the future as we continue to expand into new cities. If you would like to join our private events, consider joining StartupExperts by applying at www.startupexperts.us
