Part I: HR’s Strategic Leadership Role: Initiating the Tough Conversations
The staff and managers within an HR department have a unique perspective not shared by any other function. The recognition that this unique perspective offers a strategic role for HR executives, as well as their staff, is long overdue; acting on this recognition is an even more pressing issue.
Friction among leaders plays a large role in whether employees feel safe to fully engage or not. Being willing to step in, initiate and then facilitate the tough conversations that need to take place between and among leaders at all levels sets the HR leader up as full partner to any CEO, Executive Team and employee body.
By the end of this presentation, participants will have received a template that can be used to help design these challenging conversations.
Part II: Who Do You Want to Be…as an HR Professional?*
The question to consider is this, “Who do you want to be as an HR professional?” Here’s where we’ll be putting our attention…
♦ What Does it Mean to Be Focused on Developing and Retaining the Best Employees?
♦ How Much Attention are You Putting on Anticipating Change?
♦ How are You Enabling the Organization?
*By the conclusion of this session you will have completed an assessment of yourself as an HR Professional and prioritized actions consistent with the asset you want to become for your organization.
Program approved for 3 Strategic credits
