Session Description:

 

Most HR professionals think their day is full by just going with the flow. Guess what? That’s not what HR is all about! In most organizations today, participation as a contributing partner is vital to sustaining business. But where is HR? We need to lead the workforce planning discussion with senior management. Establish business partnerships and set direction with staff to make the organization a profitable business. HR needs to identify potentially good partnerships, determine what business relationships really work better than others and which ones are not productive. HR professionals are in a position to impact the bottom line and it’s in their best interest to take time to perform some due diligence and foster the right partnerships and measurements to help their organizations become as profitable as possible. This session shows how HR should always be involved, constantly measuring and setting goals with the right resources for their business. There is no reason why Human Resource Professionals can’t be the driving force in communicating strategy vision and direction for the organization.
