As part of the rich history on the topic of identifying and developing ‘high potential’ employees, literally thousands of books, articles, and research papers have been written. Considering this weight of research, “pet theories” abound, with as many different ideas on how and what to do as there are HR leaders in different organizations. Join Dr. Henryk Krajewski, a recognized leader in BOTH the research and practice of talent assessment and development to share a unifying view of what matters most in selecting – and keeping – the best talent. Dr. Krajewski will distinguish what matters from what doesn’t, dispel popular myths about talent, and help you focus in on winning strategies that will help you attract and retain “differentiated” talent. Specific learning objectives include: • Learning to use compelling “business-language” conversations about the importance of top talent. • Which assessment methods and tests are research supported, and an analysis of those that aren’t. • What empirical research says about the factors proven to attract high potentials. • Gaining knowledge and familiarity with the age-old psychological data that has simply been “recycled” time and time again in popular books re: engagement. • How to use technology to make all of this easier!

Do you have your finger on the pulse of your message? Is it what you intend it to be? Are you connected to the nerve center of the audience...are you calling them to action? Doesn’t matter if it’s it written form or spoken word? Are you connecting to your intended audience, the way in which you want?
This webinar will explore how to make a solid connection with your intended audience, every time you address them. Whether they be front-line staff, management, clients, or prospective employers. It will examine the three key aspects of communication (both written and verbal), explore how to curtail your message for accuracy and detail without error and suggest how to solicit a professional check up as necessary.

It is time to to archive your company's "Performance Management" practices and "Annual Review" process into the Museum of Motivation?

News Flash: Recent studies by brain scientists studying motivation also tell us that reward (yes reward) can be de-motivating. How performance reviews are structured and how supervisors and managers offer "feedback" to change behavior and improve performance is often ineffective and de-motivating.

What's an HR Director to do?

This presentation features the best practices of high performance, values-aligned organizations. Most senior leaders put more thought into their products and services than their company’s culture, yet culture drives everything that happens in their organizations.

Executive consultant S. Chris Edmonds shares insights, examples, and case studies proving that when values and behaviors are as important as results, performance improves, morale improves, and customer service skyrockets.

A senior executive of one culture client told Chris, “I used to see my job as managing results and processes. Now I see my job as managing people’s energy.”

When an organization’s culture treats employees with the highest regard, those employees willingly apply their skills towards goal accomplishment & customer service.

Sometimes an initiative to improve the performance of individuals, teams, and entire organizations hits a wall.
