Events

Strong businesses aren’t built on products alone — they’re built on people, clear expectations, and smart safeguards.

This roundtable is designed for business owners, managers, and HR professionals who want to strengthen their workplace foundation. We’ll explore topics such as employee policies, compliance considerations, risk management, workplace culture, and protecting both your team and your organization.

Participants will engage in practical discussion around common challenges, policy best practices, and proactive steps that reduce risk while supporting a healthy, productive work environment.

As with all Better Your Business sessions, this will be a guided, peer-driven conversation focused on real experiences and actionable insight.

Whether you’re updating your handbook, navigating workforce challenges, or simply looking to tighten up your operational structure, this roundtable offers clarity, perspective, and meaningful takeaways to help protect what you’re building.
