Program Overview:
Every day, HR professionals are stepping up to the plate to help their organizations confront the most serious financial crisis since the Great Depression. They are being called upon to address a daunting array of workforce challenges that could significantly impact whether their organizations survive the current downturn and have in place a solid foundation for success when the economy recovers. This presentation will highlight innovative strategies HR professionals are employing to avoid or minimize crippling layoffs, to maintain morale and employee engagement, and to retain and develop top talent during this crisis period. Participants in this session will look at best practices they can employ, drawing from SHRM Economic Stimulus Prize case studies, recent research by SHRM and other authoritative sources, as well as statements by leading CEOs and CHROs.
Extended Session: (1:00 - 2:00) - Three CEO's from prominent companies in the Spokane area will be participating in an extended panel discussion with SHRM presenter Dianna Gould to address how regional organizations have adapted their human resource divisions to fit the needs of today's economy, what has worked and what hasn't.
