Webcast Highlights:

Learn what organizations like yours are doing to...

• Address skills gaps within their workforce
• Source and recruit people with hard to find skills
• Build public and private partnerships that deliver results

Work itself is transforming along with the knowledge and skills demanded by employers. As a result, finding talent with the right skills is becoming more challenging year after year. A growing number of organizations are reaching for innovative solutions to this problem. Increasingly, public and private partnerships are emerging to leverage workforce development strategies in alleviating labor shortages and bridging skills gaps. In this webcast, we discuss findings from our latest Talent Pulse research survey, and describe the approaches that organizations use to partner with other businesses and agencies to find the best talent.

Webcast Highlights:

• How the Skilled & Qualified Workforce Model helps HR drive an enterprise strategy for risk mitigation
• How the Learning & Development function plays a part in enabling safe and effective performance through training governance and measuring training effectiveness
• How PG&E uses data in its strategy to move from subjective training cycle time to methodical and purposeful assessment and refresher training
• Strategies for partnering with other lines of business, enterprise-wide technology and data/analytics to ensure a skilled and qualified workforce

The learning function of any organization plays a vital role in its success.

For Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E), learning and proper training are highly important for employee knowledge and skills, but even more so for employees to work safely and effectively in a high-risk, high-consequence environment.

See how PG&E’s Learning & Development organization addresses one of the company’s top safety risks and ensures a skilled and qualified workforce that’s equipped to perform exceptionally with safety top of mind.

Webcast Highlights:

• Socialize people analytics in your organization and increase adoption
• Refocus on business challenges and identify precise analytics to address them
• Create a path to value
• Overcome common stumbling blocks

The “datafication” of HR has provided leaders with access to more metrics and analytics than ever before. Yet many organizations are struggling to turn those insights into action. It’s time to get real about what it means to have analytics as part of your HR strategy.

In this session, you’ll learn how to deliver value from people analytics and workforce planning by shifting your focus from data to decisions. Through examples from Fortune 1000 companies, you’ll see how organizations are utilizing data insights to take action on HR programs resulting in measurable impact on business outcomes.

Webcast Highlights:

• Contribute bottom-line value to your organization by understanding how to assess and enhance your approach to develop change leadership capacity.
• Capitalize on real-time changes happening in your organization proactively as “pop-up learning labs” to accelerate application from the classroom to the field, and where achieving ROI for your training initiatives and making a meaningful difference for the business.  
• Coach executives and managers of high potential talent to adopt a common language and process that engages change up, down and across the organization. 
• Move beyond supporting the business strategy to driving the business strategy and molding an agile, change-capable culture and agile, change-capable leaders.

The modern workplace is replete with constant and never-ending change, yet research shows that at least 70 percent of change initiatives fail.

How can we break this “change failure cycle?”

Research also reveals that 85 percent of organizations agree that there is an urgent need to accelerate the development of their leaders, but less than half of respondents say their companies have a formal process for developing high-potential employees.  Correlation?  Connection?

When investigating the percentage of organizations that train their people to lead change (not just manage change, and not just cope with change), the numbers are shockingly low.  The relationship between agile cultures and change-capable leaders is clear and compelling, and there’s a proven path toward achieving this mission-critical goal.

This dynamic webinar will cover real-world case studies of organizations that faced daunting change challenges, and exploited these as opportunities to radically upskill their leaders and transform their culture.

Webcast Highlights: 

• Why learning is becoming increasingly fluid 
• Which skills modern workers will need to learn 
• How leaders can build a culture of learning from the top down

With the advent of the gig economy, growth of online platforms and an increasing shift toward automation, the nature of work is changing and disrupting how society functions. The role of humans in the workforce is poised to change dramatically, but without a learning mindset humans won’t be able to keep pace.

Join Jeff Miller, Cornerstone’s Associate Vice President of Learning & Organizational Effectiveness, to explore why a strong learning strategy is critical for future-proofing your business.

• Engagement strategy best practices and lessons learned as detailed through real-life case studies

By harnessing the feedback and sentiment of your people in the right ways, you can transform your organization — becoming more innovative, faster, and more resilient, in addition to attracting and retaining top talent.

• The Challenges At Hand 
• Recruiting Passive Candidates As A Strategic Move 
• Tips & Resources to Help Build a Steady Candidate Pool 
• Tools & Processes That Help You Ramp Quickly 
• Ways to Stand Out From The Crowd

Your ideal candidate already has a job. Now what?

Organizations that are considered the best of the best attract and retain top talent. Talent acquisition pros are on the lookout for that same talent for the impossibly long list of open roles they’re determined to fill. Throw in a historically low unemployment rate, and you have a recipe for a level of competition that is beyond fierce.

It may feel like an uphill battle to attract the talent you so desperately need when they are already happily employed (…and it is!). But there are simple and effective ways to combat these challenges and snag the hire you need to support the business.

In this session experts will share from experience ways to tailor your talent acquisition strategy for the current hiring reality.

Join us as we discuss key tactics to give you the upper hand when landing that critical passive candidate.

Webcast Highlights:

• Secrets & insights from Google & how they use goals to manage teams
• Why the top People Ops leaders are all implementing agile goals
• How strategic HR works with the CEO connect Strategy to Execution
• Why Google HR used the OKR goal method (Objectives & Key Results)
• How People Ops improves Employee Experience (UX) with agile goals

Traditionally, managers and leaders have struggled to provide their employees with clear goals and offer the real-time coaching these employees need to achieve their goals and perform at their best at work. According to Harvard Business School research, 95% of employees do not fully understand the company’s goals or their own goals that are necessary to achieve the company goals. And 70% of global CEOs say their top challenge in executing strategy is a failure to align. Yet with all this, the total cost of your workforce is about 70% according to the Brookings Institute and SHRM. One thing is clear: high-performing companies get aligned, stay focused on what truly matters and ultimately grow much faster and become far more successful than all others.

In another Harvard Business Review article about Strategic HR leadership it becomes clear that modern CEOs know that they depend on their company’s HR to achieve success because companies don’t create value but people do. It is up to the HR to be truly strategic and help the CEO unlock and create value from human capital at the company. As an HR or a People Operations leader, how do you unlock this value? How do you help the CEO connect Strategy to execution? How do you ensure your people and team management process is founded on an agile goals-setting process?

Learn now how to make this shift at your organization and how to create a high-performance culture your CEO, executives and all employees will love.
