The pace of technology is staggering and the notion that machines will replace our jobs is receiving considerable attention.

By 2025 machines will perform more work tasks than humans, according to the World Economic Forum Future of Jobs Report. This prediction has worried workers and employers.

The good news is that organizations are thinking about the social implications of this man/machine shift and considering their options.

Deloitte’s 2019 Global Human Capital Trends report, “Leading the social enterprise: Reinvent with a human focus” reflects polling results of nearly 10,000 respondents in 119 countries.

Amongst its findings, CEOs were asked to rate their most important measure of success in 2019. The No. 1 issue they cited was “impact on society, including income inequality, diversity and the environment”.

Join Brett Wilson, Sr. Director of Thought Leadership & Strategy at Cornerstone and Julie Hiipakka, Vice President and Learning Research Leader at Bersin, Deloitte Consulting as they discuss:

  • The pace of technology and its effect on jobs
  • Design principles for the social enterprise
  • The key 2019 human capital trends and their influence over the future of the workforce, the future of the organization, and the future of HR
  • Key takeaways and approaches HR organizations can leverage to be better prepared for the “reinvention” ahead

Presented by : IIL (Rep 1003)

You will need to register with IIL and sign into the site to register for this opportunity. This session may fill up quickly so sign up today.

It’s often said, with nods of wise agreement, that any organization is nothing without its people. Countless books and courses on leadership, over many decades, address this well-known and accepted axiom.

Then why are nearly 70% of all employees in the U.S. disengaged at work? Clearly, the conferences, books, courses and motivational speakers are insufficient to make a difference.

This session by Garry Ridge, (LinkedIn profile) CEO of WD-40 Company & Judith W. Umlas  (LinkedIn profile) Senior Vice President IIL & the author of The Power of Acknowledgment will look “under the hood” of one of the world’s most recognized brands, where employee engagement is above 93%, 98% say they “love to work at WD-40 Company”, and 99% say that their “opinions and values are a good fit” for WD-40 Company.

This high engagement has resulted in a company that has doubled in revenue in the last decade and is on a trajectory to double again in the next.

Garry will share his company’s “learning moments” over the course of his efforts to transform the company’s culture, beginning in 1997. Lessons and principles covered include:

  • The personal journey of every Grateful/Servant leader, and why these philosophies, and behavioral change models are critical
  • The emotional connection of a greater purpose that creates high engagement
  • How to carefully and consciously choose values that will be embedded in all aspects of leadership and employee development
  • Why investing in people who invest in themselves is a secret to succession planning and greater organizational capability
  • The difference between a “team” and a “tribe”, and why WD-40 Company strove to create a cohesive tribe that spans 15 countries where employees work
  • How company performance results are directly connected to its focus on people

What You Will Learn:

  • How to create a state of engagement for your employees
  • How to create a culture in which employee satisfaction if almost universal
  • How to retain your employees and keep them motivated
  • Understand the factors shaping the knowledge-based economy and the importance of appreciation.
  • Recognize the mindset and capabilities necessary for creating and sustaining a successful team.
  • Describe the six dimensions that matter for mission-based work.
  • Implement at least one successful leadership strategy for immediate use in their project teams.

The Confluence, Influence, & Intersectionality of ERGs

Tasked with managing within a hyper-evolving organizational shift, “The Great Quit” or “The Great Resignation” requires leaders and employees at every level to engage in operational shifts to maintain operational excellence.

An approach that will galvanize your people is to re-shape the relationship between the C-suite and employee resource groups (ERGs) who are representatives of every level of employee.

After this webinar, participants will:

  • Be positioned to identify the means and methods to create opportunities for the C-suite and ERGs to evolve their partnerships and breakthrough impediments.
  • Create ideologies and symmetry between traditional operations and much-needed innovations to grow and retain employees through equity and inclusion.
  • Gain a deeper understanding of the two-way street of executive leaders and ERGs to influence organizational behaviors.
  • Assist the C-suite in breaking down silos and working together to create a greater sense of belonging.
  • Learn to share experiences to build agility in ERGs and other organizational teams.

Building trust and credibility as a project manager with colleagues, management, and clients takes time, commitment, and consistency.

It means connecting and building meaningful relationships that over time reveal character, values, and trustworthiness.

This can be especially difficult while juggling multiple projects, sharing resources, and managing toward tight deadlines.

Though it won’t happen overnight, there are some steps you can take to help make a great first impression and get you started on the right path in those relationships.

Incorporating trust-building habits and making them second nature will help you build a reputation of integrity and rock-solid dependability over time.

In this webinar Marie will discuss techniques to help you:

  • Make the right first impression.
  • Build on that first impression to grow credibility over time.
  • Address and repair when trust is broken.
