    As experts warn of a possible pandemic and the U.S. government advises "sheltering in place," the time to safeguard business continuity is NOW. Is your company ready for the challenges of remote working during a pandemic or year 'round with supporting policies in place?

    Eddie Ahmed of Morgan Stanley, Linda Brigance of FedEx and Josy Fung of Manulife will share their effective real-life HR policies, best practices and top tech tools to boost remote operability across regional offices, yielding an effective, flexible workforce - with virtually no operational or productivity gaps for staff stuck at home at any time.

    Moderator Thomas Parenty will tell you how to remotely access data while safeguarding corporate data. Thomas, a globally recognized authority on the technical and business aspects of information security and privacy, has designed many national and global systems with electronic commerce, banking, and healthcare applications, including for the National Security Agency.

    You'll also learn real-life strategies to get your CEO to commit to and drive pandemic planning and IT security off-site. Bring your CEO!
