Ready to start closing digital divides and building better digital workplaces? Then don’t miss the final half of Lakeside Software’s DEXterity Virtual Conference 2021, which wraps up Thursday, May 27

(If you didn’t attend Wednesday’s sessions, no worries. You can still sign up and receive a calendar invite with a link to jump right into Thursday’s event.)

Keynote speaker Angel Salmeron, lead at IDC’s Future of Work, starts things off by looking at what lies ahead for digital employee experience, followed by a hybrid work-focused discussion with bestselling author and renowned podcaster Gretchen Rubin (“The Happiness Project,” “Happier at Home,” “The Four Tendencies”). And along with other illuminating thought-leadership discussions, this afternoon’s sessions also split into two specially themed tracks — help desk operations and digital workplace planning — featuring actionable insights and technical expertise that can help organizations take those next steps toward better digital employee experience.

Here’s a closer look at what you can expect on the final day of our virtual conference.
