Hollywood Professional Association Announces ALL IN Program Details

19/05/2021

HPA today announced program details for ALL IN, a free virtual event taking place May 24-27. Presented by HPA ALL, the foundational program driving HPA-led actions focusing on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) within the industry, ALL IN is a week-long virtual event to raise awareness and promote DEI efforts in the industry.

ALL IN will feature industry leading expert presentations, live discussions, and meet ups. All presentations of ALL IN are scheduled between 11 AM and 12:30 PDT, facilitating conversations about this important work between community members in locations around the world.

On Monday, May 24, ALL IN kicks off with a presentation from Rajkumari Neogy entitled Understanding Humans @ Work. Neogy has spent 25 years at the intersection of technology and culture, working with some of the most important technology companies in the world. In her session, she will explore the brain's circuity of emotion and motivation and how it directly shapes our leadership styles and our levels of engagement from meeting to meeting. This session is the first in a four part series sponsored by HPA. The sessions with Neogy offer a unique and important opportunity to engage with one of the industry's most prominent executive coaches. Subsequent sessions begin in June and further details are available at hpaonline.com. The week culminates on May 27 with the HPA League Honors, announced previously, when five industry visionaries will be recognized for their groundbreaking work.

The week's events include:

Come explore the brain's circuity of emotion and motivation and, how it directly shapes our leadership styles and our levels of engagement from meeting to meeting in this 45-minute introductory session, with 15 Q&A at the end. You'll walk away with a handout that outlines each of the circuits and their direct influence on leadership styles, along with some self-reflective questions.
