All topics emphasize research and include perspectives from experts in the field. CONFERENCE OVERVIEW Workforce development Workforce development is dependent upon an intentional, strong, and consistent commitment to the human element within businesses and organizations. This includes a focus on leadership, diversity and inclusion, safety, and the ability for employees to meet needs that range from providing for their families to personal and career development and other life enriching opportunities. A quality of life focus is critical to employee and company success. Investments companies make in employees, are investments in business success. Local, national, and global communities benefit. Sustainability & Community Sustainability includes local and global approaches to environmental and social health, and recognizes and mitigates the impact mining has on people and communities. Sustainability emphasizes respect for the environment and for people of all cultures. All systems and people are connected. Cultivating a sustainable approach also allows companies to benefit from technologies that depend on new or renewable energy sources. Technology Technology supports successful business outcomes when a culture of innovation permeates the industry. Innovation is cultivated by rethinking systems and processes that increase productivity and safety, and recognizing the importance of internal and external partnerships. Technology, sustainability, and workforce development are interwoven concepts that are successful when approached simultaneously rather than as separate entities. ​ ​
