According to Gartner, 73% of Diversity & Inclusion leaders identified influencing diversity recruiting efforts as their top priority.

Yet, only half of D&I leaders feel confident that they can achieve this goal, and more than 60% of recruiters say their function has not yet implemented a D&I strategy.

In this  interactive webcast, industry expert Jeanette Leeds Maister (LinkedIn profile) will explore ways you can enhance your D&I strategy leveraging recruiting technology to:

  • Understand your baseline data and improve it via analytics
  • Leverage prescriptive analytics to automate candidate selection
  • De-bias candidate communications with augmented writing

Valuing diversity and inclusion goes beyond words and promises. The companies that have built policies and processes around D&I are ahead of the curve and are enjoying the benefits of a healthier bottom line.

Join Dr. Mark Allen (LinkedIn profile) HCI Faculty Member, Educator, Speaker, Consultant, & Author who will provide practical guidance to HR leaders to help them formulate their talent strategies and forecast what changes may need to be made for the rest of 2020.

The process of project management is the process of making decisions. Much of our thinking about how to make decisions reflect an ideal generally called rational economic actor.

In an ideal world, you weigh the alternatives based on reliable data, compute the most advantageous path and decide to choose that course. We maximize the expected economic outcome given some set of constraints.

Ideally, we do this in a timely manner using a process that is transparent and inspectable. Everyone involved can understands why that particular decision was made.

In the messy real world, we down-select the alternatives to consider. We work with limited data, fuzzy or even inaccurate data and, frequently, decide to take the path of least resistance.

Getting to better decisions requires some planning well before the decision is to be taken. Increasingly we acknowledge the role our inherent biases play in our decisions.

The insights of behavioral economics allow us, up front, to design decision making strategies and processes which limit the role of our cognitive biases. No process will immunize us against all failures but knowing what to look out for increases our success rate.

During this talk Kimberly Johnson (LinkedIn profile),   George Gibson  (LinkedIn profile) & Brian Cohn (LinkedIn profile) will examine how to increase the chances that our decisions will actually advance our project’s objectives without being stick in analysis paralysis.

They will discuss how to make your decision making more aligned with your goals and make those decisions quicker and more reality based.

Rapidly changing external circumstances, such as the current pandemic, put traditional utility business context and rules in flux.

However, the mission and purpose to provide continuity in essential societal services stays the same.

As the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic unfolds, the shift from the “respond” phase to the “recover” and “renew” phases will make trade-off decisions more complex.

Utility leaders should not lose sight of the mega-forces that continue to shape the industry.

In this webinar Zarko Sumic (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner  Distinguished VP Analyst looks at how utilities can make the transition by addressing today’s energy provisioning challenges while simultaneously creating new opportunities.

Discussion Topics:

  • The need for digital ambition to address new opportunities for utilities
  • Why it is critical to achieve proper balance of technology investment (techquilibrium)
  • Why balance is essential to navigate the pandemic and future transition
