    Bickle has held leadership roles at global organizations, including Western Digital, Dropbox and GE Digital, and her work has spanned all aspects of talent management with an emphasis on facilitating change management and organizational transformation. She believes that culture is everyone’s responsibility, and a thriving culture can only be achieved through partnership with all stakeholders including, HR, leaders, and employees.

     
    Bickle’s co-presenter, Dr. Kimbrel, has led DEI and leadership strategies for organizations like Paychex, Sears, the Rochester Institute of Technology and Monroe County in New York State. She currently leads a team of consultants through the Kimbrel Management Consulting Company, which guides organizations through the development of structure and strategy around leadership, organizational culture, and DEI.

     
    “Finding qualified employees in today’s labor market is the top challenge business owners are consistently facing,” said Express Employment International CEO Bill Stoller. “With the drastic changes in the workforce over the past few years, learning how to keep up with these demands is invaluable to help close the expectations gap between job seekers and employers.”
