ACA Summit attendees may recognize our lunch speaker as a previous winner of the ACA Luis Villalobos Award - Tilt wit CEO Jennifer Henderson. Jennifer joins the ACA Summit this year to provide her exceptional entrepreneurial story of growth and importance of the investor and company relationship. 

Jennifer Henderson has revolutionized how companies approach employee leave with Tilt, a tech-enabled platform that creates a human-centered experience to support every aspect of a leave of absence. With 15 years of corporate experience in operational roles, Jennifer became a sought-after leader and consultant in employee retention, engagement, and career development.

Her personal journey as a professional mom facing pregnancy discrimination and career stagnation inspired her to create Tilt, offering a solution that transforms workplace leave into a more supportive and equitable experience.

Jennifer’s keynote session will offer attendees unique insights into her entrepreneurial journey, the challenges she overcame, and her innovative vision for the future of work. Her inspiring story will resonate with investors and changemakers looking to foster innovation and equity in the workplace.

“We are honored to have Jennifer Henderson join us at this year’s Summit,” said Pat Gouhin, CEO, ACA. “Her groundbreaking work with Tilt exemplifies the kind of forward-thinking leadership that drives meaningful change in both businesses and society.”
