Webinar On HR Executive as A Business Partner

Overview:

This session will prepare the HR professional to speak the language of business and produce results for the organization.

Participants will learn how to become a proactive member of the management team. They will learn how align themselves with operations, marketing, finance, and sales and contribute to the organization's success at the same level as these other disciplines. 

The webinar will discuss the use of data base metrics for human resources and people processes that can measure the value created by functions and processes in HR. Also, understanding not how to justify an HR program but to measure weather that program is delivering value.

In short, we will discuss the paradigm shift from administration to creating business performance. 

Why should you attend: To be viewed as a leader, HR professionals must thoroughly understand their company's business objectives, financial metrics, goals and objectives and align their people practices.

For years HR has discussed getting a seat at the table. The reason that many don't have that seat is that they do not add value to the organization. True, they may prevent problems but they are not proactive business partners and success builders. This is perhaps why CEOs have come from finance and marketing but rarely from HR.

In order to be a valued business partner you must understand the language of business and how to work with the management team ON the business rather that getting bogged down in administrative details.
