Human Resources Leadership Program

Human Resources Leadership is a three day program that redefines
what it means to be a Human Resources leader in today's turbulent
business environment. Program participants develop new frameworks
to understand their new role as a Human Capital leader, the
capabilities required for success in that role, and how their
increased leadership capacity can dramatically impact
organizational sustainability and success during uncertain times.

Human Capital, the corporate asset for which HR has traditionally
been the steward, is now in the eye of this unpredictable storm.
Talent continues to be identified as the most important
organizational resource over the next twenty years. A window of
opportunity has been created for HR leaders to play a new and
critical role on their executive team, driving positive business
results and market value through human capital excellence.

Engaging in a fast-paced, interactive learning environment,
Program participants will:

- Walk away with a view of the most current global trends and
their implications for the future of work.
- Replace a more traditional focus on Human Resources activity
with new models of Human Capital impact.
- Understand the new role of the Human Capital leader, including
their personal leadership brand and leadership capabilities.
- Rethink their HR talent pipeline and HR organizational models
for today's environment.
- Learn how to align Human Capital strategy to business strategy,
and how to measure Human Capital Management for optimal business
impact.

HR VPs, HR Directors; Managers who aspire to HR executive-level
positions.
