Special guests at JiveWorld this year will include social
scientist and author Dacher Keltner
and NASA astronaut Mark Kelly.
Keltner, one of the scientific minds behind the popular Pixar movie
'Inside Out,' is a professor of psychology at University of California, Berkeley, where he
directs the Berkeley Social Interaction Lab and the Greater Good
Science Center. Kelly is an American astronaut, retired United
States Navy Captain, New York Times
best-selling author and entrepreneur who exemplifies leadership,
the importance of teamwork and courage under pressure. Jive's
customer keynote speakers include Hilarie
Koplow-McAdams, president at New Relic, Steve Phillpott, chief information officer at
Western Digital, and Bill Wohl,

"At this year's JiveWorld, we will demonstrate how to leverage
collaboration hubs to dial up human interaction and connection—a
topic more critically important for businesses than ever before,"
said Elisa Steele, CEO of Jive
Software. "Today's organizations are increasingly dispersed, and
new conversational apps and enterprise systems are actually getting
in the way by causing an IT nightmare and creating even more
disconnected work groups. Such fragmentation of people,
conversations, content, systems, actions and information hinders
productivity, yet there's a solution that brings them all together.
I'm inspired by the many companies tapping into Jive to uncover
game-changing business value through a deeper understanding of
these underlying interrelationships and how work gets done."
JiveWorld17 will bring together Jive customers, developers and
technology partners to share best practices in advanced internal
and external community management and employee engagement.
Elisa Steele and Jive executive vice
president of engineering, Ofer Ben-David, will share the
company's vision for the future of intelligent work graphs and
collaboration hubs, and announce Jive's 2017 Digital Transformation
Award winners.
Pre-conference events on May 1,
2017 will include the third annual Jive Healthcare Summit,
where industry experts will exchange ideas about how medical
education and wellness communities can help improve patient
experiences and optimize care delivery. In addition, this year Jive
will host its first Federal Summit, which will cover collaboration
best practices and advanced security compliance solutions specific
to government agencies and contractors. Finally, the
JiveWorld17//Developers conference will feature a
tri-hackathon in the Hacker Lounge, where developers will be
challenged to show not only their enterprise coding skills, but
also to participate in a LEGO® derby race on a
sensor-connected track, or join in a classic video game
competition.
