Employee benefits continue to be one of the largest and fastest-growing investments organizations make, yet many finance leaders lack clear visibility into what is driving cost, utilization, and value. In a rapidly changing market, benefits decisions require more than renewal conversations and anecdotes. They require data-driven insight.

Join FEI Grand Rapids for an executive-level session led by Hylant, focused on the data, trends, and innovations shaping employee benefits today. This presentation will provide CFOs and finance leaders with a clearer understanding of what the data is telling us, how leading organizations are responding, and where actionable opportunities exist.

The discussion will move beyond theory to highlight practical strategies leaders can apply to improve outcomes, manage risk, and align benefits decisions with broader financial and workforce goals.

Learning Objectives:

  • Current benefits, costs, and utilization trends
  • How data is being used to drive smarter benefits decisions
  • Emerging innovations in plan design and funding
  • Actionable insights CFOs can apply ahead of future renewals

This session is designed for finance leaders who want to bring clarity, discipline, and strategy to employee benefits decision-making.

*Individuals who register as a Qualified Prospective Member must meet FEI's Membership Qualifications.
