Who, Why and How

  • Who

    The doers and decision makers in scaling companies.

    • Scaling Companies - Innovative companies that are interested in remaining competitive at a global level. Scale ups, startups and larger companies investing in their employer branding, recruitment, company culture and operations.

    • Solution Providers - The problem solvers for Scaling Companies and Career Builders. Founders, experts, sales and marketing people from services, agencies and communities that help companies and people thrive.

    • Career Builders - Mid-senior individuals from Tech+, Sales and Marketing and Internal People Operations exploring what their career looks like now and in the future.

  • Why

    Great things happen when people come together and there really is no one magical fix all for how to scale a company. We see a lot of rooms designed for each department and we believe that there needs to be space for interdepartmental conversations happen. Scaling a company doesn’t work without people, and not everyone knows exactly where they fit in to various company styles. So in one room you’ll get access to:

    • Practical insight from experienced operators

    • Peer-to-peer support across departments

    • Cross-seniority conversations grounded in real situations

    • Your possible next hire

    • Trusted tools, partners, and services that support lean growth

  • How

    We remove the barrier between seat and stage, with a fast moving, highly interactive program, we build the room around getting people talking to each other.

    • Multiple Formats - a program designed to meet the needs of those in the room

    • Attendee Bingo - gamified networking for the day

    • Ask Questions - in real time, or anonymously

    • Hotseat Panel - take the stage and contribute

    • Regular Breaks - opportunities throughout the day to meet people

    Its not a conference, job fair or convention - it’s the Unconvention for everything you need to take your lean team to the next level.
