Biden addressed the Society for Human Resource Management, one of the largest gatherings of HR professionals in the world. Roughly 20,000 attendees were in the audience for the one-hour keynote address, during which the 82-year-old reflected on his presidency, his ongoing connections with world leaders, and the legacy he hopes to leave behind.
The former president spoke openly about his health, referencing the aggressive form of prostate cancer he disclosed earlier in May. Despite that challenge, Biden’s energy on stage impressed many in attendance. He admitted that while he no longer carries the official responsibilities of office, he remains deeply engaged in global affairs.
