Janice Bryant Howroyd is known for being the first African American woman to self- start a multi billion dollar business. She is the founder and CEO of the ActOne Group, the largest privately held, minority woman owned human resource company, which focuses on the recruitment of talent and technology that employs predictive analytics to support companies in their planning and hiring.

In addition to being an entrepreneur, ambassador, businesswoman, author and mentor, Janice is also a Presidential Special Appointee who has worked with President Bill Clinton, President George W. Bush, and President Barack Obama. Janice was ranked on Forbes’s 2017 list of America’s Richest Self- Made Women, a direct result of her efforts and dedication to building an organization (now with over 2200 employees in 19 countries helping over 17,000 clients) that has always been firmly committed to keeping the humanity in human resources.

Like a doctor analyzes the inner workings of her patients, Janice’s active industry involvement allows her to assess the inner workings of countless organizations. Armed with decades of knowledge, Janice will inspire us to find the legal profession’s own “prescription” for happiness.
