Description
Chief Human Resource Officers (CHRO’s) face challenges and pressures that are unprecedented within the profession. Modern HR leaders have earned a seat at the strategy table along with the other C-suite functions. However, many practices and mindsets within the HR department remain throwbacks to an outdated “Personnel” function.
Simply put: today’s HR leader cannot afford old mindsets and ineffective behaviors.
This fast-paced and straight-talking course introduces 10 of the most common, yet often the most “unacknowledged”, behaviors the CHRO indulges in that are:
undermining their credibility with employees
poisoning their relationships with their peers, and
causing the Board and shareholders to lose faith in their ability to execute
As these “landmines” are identified, the course introduces powerful shifts in perspective and subtle behavioral changes that allow CHRO’s to:
acknowledge and celebrate the contributions of all employees
balance strategic vision with relentless execution, and
model cultural norms and act in alignment with organizational values
Greater visibility at senior leadership levels means tougher goals and more exacting demands on the CHRO and the entire HR function. These demands come with a wealth of opportunities to leverage modern HR insights and practices to help the company grow faster than ever, at lower costs, in a fraction of the time.
In other words: you’ll learn how to hit fewer landmines while running faster than ever before!
Who this course is for:
- Anyone interested in Human Resources, Leadership and Management or related fields.
