Every day, your leaders and workforce are faced with countless bits of information while making decisions that range from the pragmatic to the strategic. As they confront more and more information—requiring them to act quickly while considering varying perspectives—they’re primed to rely on biased thinking.

Why? Because unconscious biases are shortcuts that help our brains compensate for overload, which can affect how we make decisions, engage with others, and respond to various situations and circumstances, often limiting potential, inhibiting performance, and leading to poor decision-making.

Join Pamela Fuller, FranklinCovey’s Thought Leader on Inclusion and Bias and author of The Leader’s Guide to Unconscious Bias: How to Reframe Bias, Cultivate Connection, and Create High-Performing Teams to discover how to create a workplace where everyone feels valued and volunteers their best efforts.

Learn:

  • A framework for making progress on bias.
  • How to identify bias in how people think and act in the workplace
  • The common circumstances that lead to biased thinking and when to pause and more fully consider decisions and behaviors
  • To cultivate deep and meaningful connections between people of varying backgrounds by using empathy and curiosity to expand mutual understanding and improve decision-making
  • To choose courage and engage with care and boldness in addressing the full spectrum of biases that limit people and constrain performance, from race, gender, disability and orientation to socioeconomic status, decision making and how we tolerate risk and engagement
  • Create a culture in which everyone is respected, valued and can thrive and contribute their highest performance

Presenter:  Pamela Fuller (LinkedIn profile) MBA is FranklinCovey’s chief thought leader on inclusion & bias. Author of The Leader’s Guide to Unconscious Bias: How to Reframe Bias, Cultivate Connection, and Create High-Performing Teams Pamela served as an architect of FranklinCovey’s Unconscious Bias work session and has delivered Covey sessions to thousands of leaders across the globe. Pamela served as a diversity analyst at the U.S. Department of Defense, focusing on human capital planning, diversity training, and statistical workforce analysis.

Amid changing times, organizations need to quickly adapt and mobilize. That’s why the topics of internal mobility, career development and succession planning have seldom been more important than they are today.

To get a handle on these critical activities, we conducted a new survey from July through September 2020 to discover how organizations are faring in these three related issues.

This webcast highlights the key findings from this study, including:

  • The degree to which organizations have formal or informal initiatives for internal mobility, succession planning and career development
  • The effectiveness of current initiatives
  • How recent events have affected employee development
  • The tools and technologies used in these three areas
  • The length of time employees typically spend in their positions before moving to new roles
  • The people who have the primary responsibility for key programs and processes
  • The specific practices and programs most associated with success in these three areas

Gavin & Mark will start by focusing on HR professionals’ current perspective on internal mobility, succession planning and career development within their organizations.

Gavin & Mark will also look at how the recent pandemic has affected the amount of time devoted to employee development.

Next, you will learn about the effective processes for managing internal mobility, succession and career development.

  1. How are they defined?
  2. Do most HR professionals view them as crucial?
  3. Do technologies really help improve the processes?

Gavin & Mark will also discuss internal mobility in greater detail. You will learn if it is easy for a skilled employee to move into a new position when there is an opening and/or learning opportunity.

You will also discover the average length of time employees typically spend in their positions before moving to new roles.

In addition, They will examine succession management in detail and what organizations do when it comes to both formal and informal succession management.

  1. Who is responsible for the process?
  2. Which methods do organizations use to identify internal candidates to fill key roles?

Finally, you will learn about career development practices and processes.

  1. Do organizations have a career development process and/or program?
  2. Are employees actively looking for more career development opportunities?

Join Mark Vickers, (LinkedIn profile) Research Coordinator and Data Wrangler at HR.com, and Gavin Morton, (LinkedIn profile) HR.com’s Head of People & Financial Operations, as they discuss the results from the survey and how they may apply to your organization.

Learn:

  1. How the issues of internal mobility, succession planning or career development have changed in recent times
  2. The extent and success of practices related to career development, internal mobility and succession management
  3. Which tools and technologies may be most beneficial to these objectives

You know that communication is important. Effective communication planning is considered an essential part of project management success. And yet, many of us struggle to communicate well.

Good communicators recognize the needs of their audience, and craft messages that have the desired impact at the appropriate time. The challenge for many of us is how to do that well.

An essential part of good communication is story. And good story has structure, rules and guidelines.
