SuccessConnect in Berlin will bring together executives and leaders in HR, IT and other lines of business to explore successful HR strategies in the digital economy. As a former Google executive and the creator of the field of “people analytics,” Bock has contributed significantly to the advancement of workplace culture. His SuccessConnect keynote will address how organizations can foster a culture that creates high-performance teams and makes work better.

“Our objectives for hosting SuccessConnect include building community, sharing learning, exciting attendees about how technology can help companies achieve their business goals today and in the future, demoing our cool innovations and inspiring people, as they take a few days out of their regular routines to join us,” SAP SuccessFactors President Greg Tomb said. “At Google, Laszlo Bock is credited with creating the field of people analytics. In his time there, he oversaw the growth of the company from ~6,000 to ~75,000 employees, while ensuring the firm’s culture remained innovative and robust.
