Margolis is scheduled to present on Monday at 3:30 p.m.
WHERE: Cobb Galleria Centre, Atlanta
DETAILS: An effective alignment and assimilation process is not just an orientation program that provides basic information to new hires - it provides them with a systematic, integrated process to achieve results. In her session, "Aligning & Assimilating New Leaders: A Guide to Successful Transitions," Sullivan will share successful approaches to help organizations strengthen the vulnerabilities of their new leaders and avoid common pitfalls, as well as ways to provide these new hires with a road map to accelerate their transition and drive business results.
The competitive hunt for leadership often assumes that solid general management skills are more important than specific industry or organizational knowledge, with expectations running high that qualified, charismatic leaders will transform businesses - but this doesn´t always equal success. In an engaging and interactive session, Margolis will provide attendees with the components of high impact succession planning coupled with the tools and techniques to continually manage this process and ensure organizations are always prepared with a strong leadership pipeline.
The 16th Annual Southeast Human Resource Conference brings together more than 800 individuals from virtually every industry, as well as companies from small consulting firms to large industrial and service giants. With a theme of "The Road to Business Success," the conference promises to equip HR professionals with the tools they need to achieve bottom-line success.
