Absenteeism is not something that is confined to a few sectors of the economy. It is one of the most persistent obstacles to productivity, profitability and competitiveness. In this webcast we look at how the latest developments in Time & Attendance and Labor Scheduling solutions are assisting World Class organizations to permanently reduce absenteeism. We uncover the many associated costs of absenteeism including; overtime, dissatisfied customers and the morale of workers expected to cover for absent employees. We explain why absenteeism remains a persistent problem for organizations, despite the fact that many organizations have first class policies on absence management in place.

This presentation, based on the experiences and "next practices" of hundreds of HR leaders and projects, will examine the five (5) critical issues that must be addressed in the critical first 100 days and beyond of HRIS project implementation.

This session will include a 100-day template to HRIS implementation excellence, and the strategic to tactical steps that must be taken to accelerate user alignment and adoption. The session will examine not only the technical aspects of launch, but also the fundamental behavioral aspects that must be considered.

Finally, the session will give several "next practice" case examples of users who successfully implemented HRIS projects in small to large scale environments.

Even the best Enterprise Resource Planning Systems (ERPs) are only as good as the people that use them and the people that help the organization prepare for their implementation. Many organizations are not prepared for the multiple initiatives and actions needed for successful implementation of such technology. Getting people to use new technology requires more than just training – it requires obtaining and maintaining buy-in and support. To achieve success a new technology implementation requires strategic communication, a clearly understood strategy, strong committed leadership and a detailed change management and governance plan. Often employees resist the implementation of ERPs and other new technologies because they don’t understand why the technology is necessary or how it will help them do their jobs. They often feel overwhelmed by the processes, terminology, and technical nature of this type of change. This session will provide an overview of tools and information that can be used in an effort to ease these concerns and help lead to successful implementations.

This session will focus on absence management in the workforce today. Proper absence management is key to helping organizations maintain the highest levels of productivity, minimize the total cost of labor, and ensure compliance with constantly changing Federal and State leave management legislation. Tools in the areas of leave requests, benefit accruals, vacancy tracking, and case management help organizations streamline benefit and leave tracking processes. This results in lower absenteeism, increased productivity, less manual processing, and overall compliance with leave standards. When organizations utilize absence management best practices, they can reach these goals and focus attention back on a productive workforce.

Five New Ways to Move Beyond Status Quo Technology Implementation HRIS and other talent technology intiatives such as ERP and cloud migrations can fail in implementation due to mis-alignment with business objectives and/or user adoption rates. In many cases, internal business users will avoid or fail to give their buy-in to the launch of a solutions launch. It is time to move beyond the "status quo" of typical HR technology applications to an experience that supports workforce effectiveness and personal productivity. This session, based on the studies of hundreds of successful technology implementations, will help HR leaders and their executive team counterparts use new "next practices" alignment and engagement techiques to accelerate successful outcomes to their technology launch(es). The session will give participants both strategic perspectives and practical tips, as well as provide a case study with the Boys & Girls Clubs, around the selection, creation and implementation of new applications that enhance the overall work experience rather than simply compliance or maintenance uses. > How to link to technology projects to overall business objectives- not HR but PA (People Apps that work). > Building a user experience that truly engages them. > Integrating other major initiatives such as intraprenuership and employer branding to your technology launch.

We will question and explore whether there is a need for integrated HR and whether it really is better in the cloud. Explore the pro’s and con’s to being one integrated HR Cloud solution from a modular components standpoint, introduce a few integrated solution providers, address the ever looming “cloud security” questions and how integrated cloud hr can save a company time and money today and in the future. This session is excellent for HR Consulting and HR Admins who want to do more with less time and effort, increase performance within an organization and make the CFO happy, saving boat loads of time and money. This session is also excellent for individuals that want to be part of the Social Enterprise. Topics Addressed in this presentation include: Why Integrated HR We will review a case for bringing all HR components in house into one integrated global core HR system of record. By reviewing individual components of HR we can identify the needs and wants and better understand how these can work better together in one cloud solution. Why Cloud HR This is the topic on everyone’s minds today. We will briefly attack the whole “cloud thing” and see how this cloud phenomena can benefit HR Admins and their organizations. What are the Benefits of Integrated Cloud HR From what we expose and discover in the previous sections we will briefly explore the power of both Cloud and HR as one globally accessible solution for today’s global social workforce. What are the Security Risks of Integrated Cloud HR Always a topic of concern, this is a “must address” requirement in any Cloud conversation, especially Cloud HR as it pertains to private, confidential employee records and personal data. Who are some of the players in the Integrated Cloud HR space Sure we are Vana Workforce and we want you to think there are no other solutions in Cloud HR or at least none as good as Vana Workforce, but let’s be honest, there are lots. Some are better than others and some are perfect for your organization. We will quickly and visually identify the leaders, larger and smaller and touch on some of the offerings from the leaders in Cloud HR. How can Integrated Cloud HR Save Time and Money YES... the most important question on everyone’s minds always comes down to how cool and app is, how functional it is, and finally the ultimate question; “how much is this going to cost me”. Well the great news is that both Cloud and Integrated will indeed save you both Time and Money. How much is dependent on the solution of choice, the vendor or consultant you are working with and your requirements, but we can cover this in general so that the Integrated Cloud HR truth of Time and Money can be exposed.

Integrated Talent Management (ITM) has become a major focus for many organizations today. Fulfilling the vision of ITM is driving many corporate HR departments, and they are now trying to weave disparate HR processes and technologies into a comprehensive approach to maximizing workforce performance. For most organizations, executing an ITM strategy is a challenging, multi-year project that involves much more than deploying technology or re-designing processes; HR and business leaders must take a strategic, thoughtful approach that firmly links Human Resources (HR) to business outcomes. This presentation outlines a seven step leading practice methodology for successfully executing the ITM concept.
