Most CEOs or other senior business executives cringe at the thought of having to meet with risk management professionals.

By their very nature, CEOs are hard-wired to seek out growth opportunities that will add value to their companies.

However, risk management professionals are tasked with finding ways to minimize losses that will erode value.

The goals are perceived as polar opposites.

In his webinar, John A. Wheeler (LinkedIn profile) provides a simple method to change your CEO’s view and improve your risk management approach at the same time.

Discussion Topics:

• What’s wrong with the way risks are presented to the CEO
• How you can “flip the conversation” about risks
• How to proceed once the conversation has changed

Are Your Strategies Aligned With Your Business Goals?

The key to the success of a new business strategy lies not only within market conditions, technological prowess, or any number of other areas for consideration, but also in the ability of a company’s talent strategy to support its new direction.

Whether it’s a sales expansion or corporate relocation, opportunities to drive business strategy abound, and all of them have a significant impact on talent acquisition.

Talent underpins every organization and it needs to support that weight evenly if the business is going to have a solid foundation from which it can grow.

To build this base, talent and business strategies must be aligned.

Join Mitzi Jordan (LinkedIn profile) & George Hoffmaster (LinkedIn profile) final installment of the TASA webinar series to learn about Futurestep’s approach to Business Alignment,  and to see how it fits within their holistic approach to talent acquisition consulting.
