As we embark on the new year, please join us for an engaging conversation about boosting personal wellbeing and building resilience ahead of stress and change. We’ll also spotlight the workplace resources here to support you and show you how to easily tap into wellbeing, mental health, and work–life programs when you need them.

**Speakers:**

- **Laurie Conneely** currently serves as a Senior Human Resources Business Partner at Harvard Medical School. Her work spans organizational design, labor and employee relations, performance management, compensation strategy, and change management. Before joining Harvard Medical School, Laurie held HR leadership roles at Emerson College, where she served as Human Resources Business Partner/Director. Prior to working in higher education, Laurie spent more than a decade working in the financial services industry in various Human Resource and Benefits leadership positions.
