With the intensity of hiring in the last year or two, employers have struggled to find enough people to fill nearly every role.

What if that challenge wasn’t just a one-time occurrence, but a realistic look at what the future holds?

Even with stories of layoffs in the news, companies in many industries are hiring as fast as ever before. Amidst a variety of demographic changes, personal choices, and changing work preferences, there’s a shortage of workers to go around.

In this session HCI will touch on a few of those reasons and explore how innovative companies are hiring and retaining their critical talent, leveraging case studies from Coca Cola, Audible, EasyJet, and other notable organizations.

Delivering higher-value projects in increasingly shorter timeframes sustains competitiveness.

Challenges exist at every turn; risk must be understood and mitigated, and problems recognized and solved quickly.

Adaptive reasoning and problem-solving skills have become increasingly important in project management, where decisions based on sometimes sparse, voluminous, or contradictory data must be dealt with, verified and conveyed to a diversity of team members – often under stressful, time-sensitive circumstances.

In such situations, project managers’ ability to update their mental models precisely, draw valid conclusions, and effectively deploy response through team members is critical.

This presentation discusses how advancements in adaptive reasoning and problem-solving skills resulting from the development of structured approaches to innovation are changing perceptions of project deliverables (time, quality, cost, risk management, et al).

Presenter: Dana W. Clarke, Sr. (LinkedIn profile) President/CEO of Applied Innovation Alliance LLC, specializes on the advancement and practical application of Structured Innovation and TRIZ (The Theory of Inventive Problem Solving).  Author of TRIZ: Through the Eyes of an American TRIZ Specialist & 40 Principles: TRIZ Keys to Innovation [Extended Edition]  His expertise encompasses the practical applications, consulting, facilitation and training of methodologies and business practices. As an expert in Strategic Planning, Competitive Intelligence, Business Process Innovation, Quality Function Deployment, and TRIZ.

While diversity, equity, and inclusion have been a focal point of some organizations for many years, others have only recently begun to dedicate time and resources to such initiatives.

In this webcast, Irene Koulianos (LinkedIn profile) will explore three ways total workforce management can help improve the effectiveness of your DE&I strategy by supporting:

  • Better decision making
  • Higher profitability
  •  Recession resilience

Join us to learn how building an efficient DE&I strategy can make for a fiscally sustainable organization that’s attractive to senior leadership and prospective talent.
