May 7th 2012 – 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm EDT –The Mature Worker- How Old Do You Look; How Young Do You Feel; Check your Attitude! (Long Description)
Three important trends are occurring that will have a dramatic impact on the American workforce: the workforce, and the population as a whole, are aging; labor shortages are projected in a growing number of sectors of the economy; and many workers intend to continue to work beyond the traditional retirement age.
- How will we create learning solutions for this business community that will attract and retain mature, experienced workers who are increasingly critical to maintaining a competitive advantage?
- What does workforce aging really mean?
The central issue is not that the mean age of workers is increasing but that the relative size of the workforce is reducing. Workforce aging is about productivity, not age, and focusing on ‘the older worker’ as an older person rather than an individual may actually be a barrier to developing workable policies to address the serious issues arising from a reduced workforce.
- As a training professional, how does learning and development meet the needs of all ages and learning styles?
- What can you do as a “mature†worker to brand yourself to work 20 more years?
Learn the three success factors to working through to 80!

May 8th 2012 – 11:00 am – 12:00 pm EDT – Create “EmployeePreneurs” through Performance Management (Long Description)
The philosophy of performance management must embrace the needs of the organization and employee development. Passive participation does not serve a company striving for operational excellence. To remain competitive, employees must see their roles as more than a paycheck. Employees must be engaged to exceed company goals and improve their value in the organization. When employees are rewarded for becoming “EmployeePreneursâ€, their performance levels are raised and temporary roadblocks are seen as opportunities. This webinar will provide HR professionals and leadership a challenge to evaluate their performance management philosophy, tools and initiatives.

May 8th 2012 – 12:30 pm – 1:30 pm EDT – How To Say “YES!†When Your System Says “NO!†(Long Description)
An effective business partner solves problems so they stay solved. The skill set for an effective business partner includes problem-solving skills, creativity, analysis, collaborative relationships and making good decisions. But skills alone are not enough – the practitioner needs a robust suite of technology tools to help manage and process the vast amount of business, performance and talent data to turn it into actionable information. The bottom line is that without enabling technology, you are faced with the prospect of saying “NO!†to business partner because your technology cannot support the innovative solution you can visualize but cannot implement. You simply cannot make design recommendations that you cannot administer. The unfortunate reality is that system modifications are often prohibitively expensive, and you quickly find that “add on†software usually trades one set of limitations for another.

May 8th 2012 – 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm EDT – Performance Management: How Can Analytics Help? (Long Description)
With the generational turnover of Boomers retiring, Gen X rising and Millennials filling in the gaps, it’s no surprise that companies are scrambling to prepare the leaders of tomorrow. As investments in performance management increase, so does the demand on human resources professionals to prove the impact. Human capital initiatives have traditionally been considered too difficult to quantify, let alone able to be improved through data-driven insights.
This session will show Performance Management professionals how they can execute a human capital measurement strategy that arms them with powerful data to report successes to upper management and a plan for continuous improvement. Participants will learn about the key concepts for human capital analytics: Stakeholder buy-in, Alignment, Getting to useful data, Segmentation, Isolation, and Optimization.

May 8th 2012 – 3:30 pm – 4:30 pm EDT – How to separate performance from potential in identifying your true “HiPo’s†(Long Description)
To build a robust talent pipeline, many organizations place a great deal of emphasis on identifying and developing high potentials. By identifying those with the greatest potential, organizations can differentially invest; focusing development where it will get the biggest return over the long haul. The challenge is – who really are those with the greatest potential? Who will, with proper development, have the greatest sustained success?
The challenge is separating the judgment of performance from the judgment of potential. This is extremely difficult, if not impossible, to do with managerial judgments. The solution is leveraging a source other than managerial judgment for assessing potential. Building this solution requires answering three questions:
- What are the markers of potential;
- What assessment tools can we align to these markers of potential; and,
- How will we integrate data from all assessments to make final decisions about who are our true “HiPo’s.
In this presentation, we will share research and best practices regarding answers to each of these questions, as well as tools and processes to help build a solution unique to your organization.
