Day 2

3:00 PM THINK TANK: Redefining Success in Contingent Workforce Programs

As contingent workforce programs mature, traditional success metrics often fail to capture what actually matters to the business. In this think tank, enterprise buyers will step back to examine how they define success today, which measures still drive the right behavior, and which ones may be reinforcing outdated priorities. The discussion will focus on aligning program goals with business outcomes rather than operational activity. 


Actionable Takeaways 

    • Identify which success metrics no longer reflect business value 
    • Learn how peers are redefining program success for mature environments 
    • Build a refined scorecard that better aligns to speed, quality, and stakeholder trust
