The rapidly changing workplace, multi-generational workforce and evolving technology will impact traditional human resources strategies and leadership approaches. Managers will be faced with new challenges in hiring and retaining employees, motivating staff, driving digital transformation and implementing human resources programs that will continue to engage a diverse workforce. While organizations still need talent management, total rewards and learning and development programs, tomorrow’s leaders will have to rethink their approach to leading and communicating with their employees. With a panel of human resources experts from different industries, attendees will learn how top performing organizations are preparing for the future by up scaling management, redesigning learning, shaping meaningful work, aligning values and purpose, and creating strategic collaboration at all levels in the organization. |

This course will teach learners life-long practices for exploring career interests, building an authentic network, and making confident career decisions. Learn how these practices can also increase your current job satisfaction and help you stand out at work. |

For UC to be successful in recruiting and retaining talent, we must create a cross-system approach to talent and succession management.
