About the Presenter: Angela Smith
Equal parts people strategist, culture architect, and impact enthusiast. I'm on a mission to prove that doing good and doing well aren't just compatible - they're inseparable. My sweet spot? Transforming purpose-driven organizations into powerhouses where both people and positive impact thrive. I design HR initiatives that don't just make people want to come to work on Mondays, but make them feel like they're part of something bigger.
From leading innovative recruiting and employee engagement initiatives, to reimagining leadership development, I build programs that put the 'human' back in Human Resources, and the purpose back in profit. When I'm not crafting culture-first strategies for mission-driven companies, you'll find me sharing insights in Forbes, Mashable, and The Muse, or teaching meditation. As an #IamRemarkable facilitator, I'm passionate about helping everyone recognize their power to create positive change.
An avid traveler, I spent 2.5 years wandering as a nomad in search of great spots to hike, paddleboard, or eat delicious pastries. MBA, PHR, and SHRM-CP certified, but more importantly, deeply experienced in building workplaces where purpose, impact, and performance come together daily. Because I believe the future of work isn't just about better businesses - it's about building a better world.
