I am excited to join you at PayrollOrg’s Annual Payroll Congress—the premier event that will help payroll professionals enter a new era, embrace change, and network with payroll professionals from all over the world. With four days of non-stop education and networking, this immersive experience will empower you to discover career-enhancing resources and opportunities within your own professional community.

Enjoy your accommodations at the Gaylord Opryland Resort and Convention Center as you explore the evolving future of payroll, refresh your understanding of payroll principles, expand your network, and connect with industry experts. Don’t miss any of the keynote and industry expert speakers as they enhance your professional development with “honky-tonk” fun and a wide variety of different topics that will motivate and inspire.

Whether you are new to payroll or a veteran payroll professional, the opportunities at Payroll Congress for a total payroll transformation are endless. Payroll industry leaders will share educational information in more than 100 workshops across multiple tracks. I am pleased to share that we have again expanded the Leadership Excellence Series this year. These motivational sessions aim to enlighten and inspire you. You can attend one or all of these exhilarating sessions.

An easy way to keep track of all things Payroll Congress is through PayrollOrg’s free app. Download the Payroll Congress 2024 app now to view the latest workshop and session schedules and conference updates.

Of course, Payroll Congress also features the world’s largest Expo for the payroll industry. Visit with vendors to learn about transformational technologies and critical services to help you and your organization implement and maintain best practices. Make sure you include stops at the PayrollOrg booth and, if you received a Citation of Merit this year for participation on a national board or committee, be at the Citation of Merit Photo Station in the Expo on Thursday from 12:30 p.m. – 2:00 p.m. for a photo with myself and Executive Director Dan Maddux.

Stay ahead of the curve with the award-winning Congress Today magazine, available in print as well as online, to keep you updated every day throughout the week. Don’t forget to take copies home as a great way to share the Payroll Congress experience with your colleagues.

As President of PayrollOrg, I look forward to meeting you as we learn, connect, and collaborate during Payroll Congress.

Have a great week!
