  Topic: Targeting Your Development Dollars – Creating Programs That Are Sustainable in Good Times and Bad
  Date: March 18, 2009 at 3:00 - 4:00 PM ET
          
 
Description
The old bromide “people are our most valuable asset” is heard less often in these difficult days of economic disaster, massive lay-offs, and mounting losses across all business sectors. Training and development professionals are being asked to slash budgets, reduce professional staff, and in some cases, completely suspend programs that were once considered critical to the success of the business. They are being called on to save money now, while somehow maintaining mission critical programs, and to be ready to respond effectively to the uncertainties of the future. Those who meet these challenges most effectively will help their companies survive now and prosper in the future.

This webinar is intended for human resource, training and development professionals who are charged with meeting the development needs of their companies. We will focus on redesigning development programs in light of the current economic pressures, with an eye toward the future ups and downs of an increasingly unpredictable world business climate. The webinar will focus on how to design and implement sustainable programs that survive in good times and bad times and add value to the organization.

Who Should Participate
  • Training and Development, OD, and other HR professionals struggling with maintaining programs with reduced resources
  • External consultants and people development professionals who are finding significantly reduced demand for their services
  • Line Managers who are concerned about developing, retaining, and continuing to engage their people
  • Finance and procurement specialists who have oversight for training and development functions.
