Keynote Speaker

 

Cindy Moehring is a recognized global leader, independent board member, and former C-suite executive. Her extensive experience spans the world’s largest multi-national corporation (Walmart), academia, publicly listed companies, privately held start-ups, and the non-profit sector (U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Committee.) 

Her industry experience includes retail (food and non-food; digital and physical), consumer products, technology, financial services (bank and non-bank), healthcare (pharmacies), transportation and supply chain, agriculture, manufacturing, and sports management.

Cindy gained much of her experience during a distinguished 20-year career with Walmart, Inc., where she served as Senior Vice President, Global Chief Ethics Officer, U.S. Chief Ethics and Compliance Officer and C-Suite member of the Walmart U.S. leadership team. In these roles, she was involved in all aspects of the business and operational management. Cindy reported to the Audit Committee and worked directly with the full Walmart Board of Directors and four Walmart CEOs. Cindy led Walmart through multiple complex challenges, including spearheading the transformation of Walmart’s global culture of integrity.

In 2019, Cindy was tapped to launch the Business Integrity Leadership Initiative for the Sam M. Walton College of Business at the University of Arkansas, a top 25 public business school. As the Founder and Executive Chair, Cindy provides extensive thought leadership and develops new curricula.

Cindy also serves on boards for three for-profit companies, one public and two private. In the non-profit sector, Cindy recently had the honor of being appointed to serve on the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Board’s National Governing Body (NGB) Oversight and Compliance Committee.

Cindy lives in Bentonville, Arkansas, where her husband, Barry, serves as the Benton County Judge. They have three children, Bennett, Hayden and Allison. Bennett and Hayden are both graduates of the U.S. Naval Academy and are serving as officers in the U.S. Navy. Allison is attending the University of Missouri.
