Diversity & Inclusion, Working from Home, Creativity, US President's playlists – with Spotify you can talk about just anything! Welcome to an event where Katarina Berg & Michael Kim from Spotify will share their insights from one of the world's most innovative companies. Katarina and Michael are both HR professionals, but at Spotify, HR is part of the business so it will be relevant for anyone working and interested in BUSINESS.

Since Spotify does things differently, this talk will be unique – on stage, we have the people asking the questions, by link from Sweden and Australia we will have the main speakers.

The one-hour talk will focus on 3 different areas:



• PEOPLE FIRST – A WAY TO DRIVE BUSINESS

Spotify dares to think differently. What is the story behind their progressive parental leave? How is diversity & inclusion part of the culture? What does it mean to operate with speed? How do we achieve work-life balance? And how does it impact people when you add business revenue streams?

• WORKING FROM ANYWHERE

We today face new challenges while doing business. How does Spotify build teams in this new world? Can you really CONNECT virtually and MOTIVATE remotely in an efficient way? What is the new normal? We will also talk about "The Band Reunion – the Spotify way to address culture and values in a sustainable way.

• CRISIS MANAGEMENT – LEARNINGS FROM COVID AND LEARNINGS FROM FAILURES

The questions will be asked by a panel from SwedCham's HR Community Group

The answers will be given by:

- Katarina Berg, CHRO, Strategy Operations, Global Workplace Services

- Michael Kim, Head of HR JAPAC
