Workplace Application: In this workshop, we will examine the issues arising in HR from globalization, with a specific view of what is expected from HR by the CEO and other business leaders.
This session will look at some macro trends facing HR in a shrinking world, and what you have to do to be ready to not just survive, but to lead. If your company is beginning to expand globally, if you’re starting to think about new countries, expatriates, hiring local nationals, joint ventures… then you’ll want to attend this workshop. One of the top rated pre-con workshops in 2011, it’s back with updated materials and information. Led by one of SHRM’s top rated speakers, you can expect to walk away with a much better understanding of what HR has to do in a global business, why it’s different than purely domestic HR, and what you, as an HR professional, must do to get ready.
*Additional programs fees and advance registration are required.
