TOPIC:             Implementing Dynamic Change
SPEAKER:       Gerry Hoeffner

Today’s fast-paced economy demands that businesses either change or die. The competitive pressures keep increasing, the pace of change keeps accelerating and companies must continually search for higher levels of quality, service and overall business agility. The treadmill moves faster, companies work harder, but results improve slowly or not at all. Few companies manage corporate transformations as well as they would like. It is said that anywhere from 50 to 80 percent of all change initiatives fail. Why is this and how do you alter the results? “Implementing Dynamic Change” looks into the dynamics of change and what HR can do to create an organization that fosters pro-active change efforts that are successful.

By attending the May HRABC Dinner Meeting, you will understand:

  • Why we must change
  • Why change initiatives fail
  • How people deal with change
  • How to develop and implement a change management strategy.
  • How to prepare the workforce for changing work environments
  • How to create an organization that embraces change
  • How to identify and address the organization's specific change management needs

HRABC Workshop:  May 9, 2012 (3-5pm)

TOPIC:            Driving Business Goals through HR Metrics
SPEAKER:     Gary Sapir

There is so much talk (and sometimes a bit of whining) about the HR professional deserving the proverbial “seat at the table.” While many factors influence the HR professional’s ability to play a more strategic and prominent role in organizations, it is generally agreed that “understanding and speaking the language of business” is requisite to being invited into the “C” suite.

This workshop will focus on the practices, processes, tools and metrics that HR professionals must incorporate into their day to day roles and responsibilities to influence over-arching organizational goals. Using an interactive approach to tap into the shared knowledge of the participants, we will identify specific HR metrics that can be linked to relevant organizational metrics. Tools for communicating these metrics in terms of leading and lagging variables will be presented so that HR practitioners in any size organization can better communicate the strategic relevance of their efforts to organizational leadership.

The program will also explore demographic shifts in the workforce that are influencing and changing HR competencies. These shifts are changing outcomes that practitioners will be expected to produce in order to affect organizational success and maintain professional relevance.

Workshop Objectives:

  • Identify key organizational goals and HR-specific goals that are central to the success of each of the participant’s organizations
  • Focus on the HR activities that are most critical to the successful attainment of organizational goals.
  • Create meaningful HR metrics that directly related to key organizational goals.
  • Ask meaningful questions of leadership to identify areas of strategic HR focus.
  • Anticipate future organizational and HR-related needs based on future demographic influencers.

This program has been approved for 2 Strategic HRCI credits.
