MnCMN Partner Event - HR Executive Forum Panel: How Leaders Accelerate and Drive Change & Performance

Description

Join us in partnership with the HR Executive Forum for a high-impact panel discussion on how organizations can leverage change to accelerate transformation and performance. This conversation brings together senior HR leaders and experienced change practitioners who will share real-world insights on building readiness, navigating complexity, and leading teams through rapid organizational shifts.

We partnered with HREF because combining strategic HR perspectives with practical change execution creates a fuller, more actionable view of what it takes to lead transformation today. MNCMN members will gain upstream visibility into how executives are thinking about talent, culture, leadership, and organizational design—and what they expect from effective change partners.

Our panel of five leaders will explore multiple angles of change, including enterprise transformation, talent and leadership development, organizational effectiveness, and the practical realities of driving adoption at scale. Panelists include:

• Melissa Daul, Senior Change Manager at DigiKey (and MnCMN member!)
• Holly Stang-Willams, Managing Director of Pioneer Management Consulting
• Cathy Windschitl, Global Talent Leader of Cargill Food Enterprise
• Ann Mackey, SVP Human Resources of Cargill Food Enterprise
• Becky Schneider, Chief People Officer at Niron Magnetics
