Pre-Approved for 1.5 Business Management and Strategy recertification credit hours toward PHR, SPHR and GPHR recertification
Summary of Session:
In today’s highly competitive business world, HR has an amazing story to tell. Many human resources leaders are cited as key influencers who drive innovation and change in their organizations. Business magazines are full of stories where HR professionals make important and meaningful contributions to overall business success. And business leaders such as Nigel Travis of Dunkin Brands, John Hofmeister of Shell Oil, and Anne Mulcahy of Xerox are examples of successful executives who emerged from the world of Human Resources.
But many HR teams in the trenches have an image problem. Some human resources leaders find themselves on the wrong side of a discussion where they ask for validation and respect from executives. And many HR professionals struggle to articulate how they contribute to the overall success of an organization.
So how do you translate your critical HR responsibilities to the bottom-line and quantify those results? In this session, we will cover seven high-impact areas where HR professionals have an opportunity to add significant value—and achieve recognition—for their contributions to the organization’s strategic plan.
- Understanding the business & aligning the people strategy
- Ensuring a great place to work
- Attracting and recruiting the right talent at the right time
- Improving retention of key employees
- Developing future leaders
- Enabling employee productivity
- Communicating like an executive
The one thing that your CEO and CFO know? A business leader’s strategic importance is never measured by words or a position on an organization chart. It is measured by business results.
Learning Objectives:
- How to take a longer term, “big picture” approach to HR.
- Solve business problems through the effective use of people strategies.
- Become an active and effective business leader who can directly impact major business initiatives.
