Now, you can hear exactly how they did it.

Join Alice Young, VP of People & Culture at Liquid Death, and Vanessa Kahkesh, HR Content Lead at Rippling, for a behind-the-scenes look at how they executed a seamless, scalable HR transformation.

In this live webinar, you'll learn:

01 Why 2025 is your best shot to kill legacy HR for good

02 How to lock in executive buy-in—fast

03 Proven frameworks for evaluating HR systems that actually scale

04 Alice's real-world lessons from scaling people at Liquid Death
