HRMA 2015: "Change Your Strategy!"
|
Happy New Year! I cannot believe we are firmly entrenched in 2015
already. Was Y2K really as big as a deal as I remember it was in 1999?!
And is my daughter (born in Y2K) really a 15-year old teenager now?!
Nonetheless, here we are, all of us with personal change and growth
occurring in our personal and professional lives - whether we welcome it
or not. And both SHRM and HRMA are also in the midst of important
change.
|
Business leadership strategy has greatly evolved over the last
decade, and the human resources profession has followed suit (or needs
to follow suit - if you and/or your organization are still evolving).
Similarly, the HRMA Board intends to focus on our Chapter's agile
strategy and evolution. Therefore, the Board has fittingly decided
to unveil - and operate under - the 2015 theme of "Change Your Strategy!"
No matter how successful anyone or any organization is or has been, the
abilities to "bob and weave" around obstacles, maneuver and identify
new opportunities are necessary components of a successful strategy.
This is true whether your goal is to maintain, grow or improve. Click here to read more.

January 21st Networking Happy Hour &
Dinner Meeting
|
|
When Baby Boomers Retire:
Winning the Talent Wars
Pre-Dinner Happy Hour: 5:00 - 6:00 p.m.
Buffet Dinner: 5:30 - 6:30 p.m.
Extended Keynote Presentation: 6:30 - 8:00 p.m. |
Each
day, 10,000 Baby Boomers turn 65 and are eligible for retirement. There
are 26 million fewer Gen Xers' than Baby Boomers. This demographic
reality means that you may not be able to find the talent you need to
fill critical rolls in your organization. This, combined with the fact
that our colleges are graduating 38% fewer people than predicted market
needs, implies that every business will be engaged in a war for talent. Join us and learn more about the upcoming "Talent Wars" and the succession planning strategies
you can take to win them! Join us for this fantastic program with an
incredible group of panelists for the first HRMA meeting of 2015.
Facilitator: Phil Brandt, President & CEO, AAIM Employers' Association
Panelists:
- Tim Volk, Vice President Global Human Resources, Emerson
- Darrel Keesling, Chief Operating Officer, Component Bar Products
- Keith Guller, CEO, Essex Industries
This program has been approved for 1.5 hours of HR (General) HRCI Credit, and is eligible for 1.5 hours of SHRM Certification Credit.
