Webcast:
Do you speak language understood by your CFO, CIO and CEO? To get and keep a seat at the executive table, senior HR and talent leaders need to communicate in the language of business, especially when making their ROI case for talent initiatives. This webcast will cover a successful talent case study, from work done at Wachovia, pitched to the perspective of business decision makers. It passes the tests of HR's credibility and role as a valued business partner (earned by diagnosing, prescribing, and implementing targeted and relevant interventions), and by partnering with executive leaders using information they need to run their business and produce results. You'll leave with insights about collecting data that demonstrates business impact, and how talent creates value, measured in business dashboard terms.
