Sessions

The post-Recession business landscape is still coming into focus. We know only one thing with certainty: life in HR has been changed, and our survival, as a profession, and as HR professionals, is at stake. It's essential that we pause for a moment, and think about where we are, what is influencing us, and what we need to do next. We will examine nine global macro-trends which are shaping HR today. You will learn how to develop an HR infrastructure that supports global business initiatives where HR serves as a subject matter expert and credible business partner. You will also learn how to develop HR strategies to support the organization's global strategic plans and the business requirements (e.g., outsourcing, offshoring, new product development, transfer of technology and human capital, talent management, shared services).
