THE TAX BUCKET CHALLANGE

SPEAKERS: JOHN HAMMOND AND PAM CHERNOFF, AON

What’s more wishy-washy than a bucket of water dumped over your head? How legal departments want you to explain taxes to participants.

But you know your global employees need information they can easily understand so they have a sense of what their awards mean and their personal responsibilities on getting their taxes right. Where is the line on advice and what are some better options in the world of tax explanation?

Join us for a brief session where we take a closer look at failures and wins and give you some tips on how to move past your company’s past weaknesses and deliver a flood of great info without getting wet.

After our educational session, our sponsor, Aon will be hosting a Happy Hour immediately following.  We hope you will join us for both.

Thank you to our Happy Hour sponsor, Aon.
