As millennials come of age in the workplace, getting them to stick around is becoming a concern. Elements of the employment deal like organizational culture, benefits and working conditions play a critical role in retaining top performers. During this spotlight webinar, millennial branding expert Dan Schawbel will uncover the elements that lead to a clash between generations and how employers can better leverage their programs to meet the needs of the young workers.
During this webinar attendees will hear:
How total rewards contribute to employee motivation
The key factors employees look for in positions and their connection to employee retention
Comparison of workforce generations and its impact on workforce planning
Employee Engagement Today: The Simply Irresistible OrganizationQualtrics
Though culture and engagement are often considered two sides of the same coin, each serves it’s own function. In this webinar Josh Bersin will outline how corporate culture and employee engagement work hand in hand and discuss the importance of actively measuring and monitoring both to drive business success.

Enterprise learning is in a state of flux, more so than usual, thanks in no small part to technology. The possibilities can seem endless and somewhat overwhelming given the pace at which new technologies seems to roll up to our doorstep. In fact, much of the technology we are grappling with today forces us to think about fundamentally changing the way we deliver learning in our organizations.
Join Brandon Hall Group Senior Analyst David Wentworth and Charles DeNault, Saba's Senior Director of Product Marketing as they discuss emerging and evolving trends in learning and technology, examine what companies are actually doing today, and bring some clarity to what the future may hold.
We expect this session to be highly interactive with lots of input from attendees around what they see happening with learning in the future. Takeaways include:
Social and collaborative learning
Mobile technology
Big Data/Machine learning
MOOCs

Managing the Workforce of the Future: Retaining and Engaging Future Claims Leaders
Presentation made to the Excess/Surplus Lines Claims Associaton at its annual conference in Southampton, Bermuda.
Presentation features the shifts in workplace values that require organizational leaders to change their approach to workforce management.
Keynote - Thomson Reuters Synergy 2015 Conference
In this inspirational keynote, Tom will show practitioners how to explore new value-added services and position their practices for success in a rapidly changing world. He'll discuss the major "shift change" and the trends shaping business today, and give participants a framework to provide more proactive services and strategic advice—and a plan to get started.
Tom Hood (Maryland Association of CPAs, Inc.)—Tom is passionate about three areas: leadership, learning, and technology. His recognition and awards reflect his leadership in helping CPAs "shape their future" through his work as the CEO of the Maryland Association of CPAs and the Business Learning Institute, a center for the development of leadership, strategic thinking, and collaboration skills for CPAs. In 2013, Accounting Today said about Tom, "If there is a conversation about the future of the profession, you're bound to hear Hood's name mentioned as one of the people leading the way. Hood is doing as much as anyone—and more than most- to lead public accounting forward."
CPA Practice Advisor inducted Tom into the Accounting Hall of Fame in 2015. He was named the fourth most influential leader in Accounting Today’s 2014 list of the Top 100 Most Influential People in Accounting (his tenth time on the list). LinkedIn recruited Tom as one of their Top 150 Influencers, and he was named to the Top 25 Influencers in Learning by HR Examiner.
Can you hear the shift change whistle? Because today the whistle is blowing for the accounting profession. The shift change is the transfer of the retiring baby boomers to the next generation of leaders that will be taking the helm in the next few years. Except this time it is not the same as the shipyard. This time the incoming shift will require a new set of skills and tools to continue the work of the prior shift. This time it is different.
The shift change is different in five fundamental areas that are radically changing:
1. Technology - hyper-connected, mobile, social, cloud, and big data.
2. Generations - Generation gap, generation lap, and 2 for 1 (Boomers to Xers).
3. Workplace - Work is no longer a place we go, but what we do - open, collaborative, and flexible.
4. Leadership - A recent Harvard Business Publishing study found only 32% of business leaders believe that their organizations have the right leadership to achieve their strategic goals and cope with the current business environment.
5. Learning - L>C, flipped classrooms, participation and engagement are the new normal.
The cause of the shift change is the rapidly changing and complex hyper-competitive environment which has become the new normal. The key to managing this shift change is a very simple, but very big idea - develop your talent and Keep your L>C.
The winners of this shift change will be those who can keep their rate of learning greater than the rate of change and greater than their competition. This is true for the organizations as well as individuals. The secret to talent development and L>C is in the 4 C's - Competencies, Career Path, Curriculum, and Cloud Learning.
What are the Top Competencies (Knowledge, Skills and Abilities) needed by CPAs, Accounting and Finance Professionals today?
The Business Learning Institute shares its latest research and correlates it with other leading global research (Conference Board, AICPA, CGMA, IFAC, CPA Canada, Burrus Research, Bersin by Deloitte). These skills were identified and then surveyed across over 1,000 finance and accounting professionals to identify the top five skills needed today.
In our survey work at the Business Learning Institute (http://www.blionline.org) we found that the top five skills ranked by survey respondents covered 75% or everyone's top five list, providing a great starting point for skills development and targeting in talent development.
1. Strategic and Critical Thinking
2. Communication
3. Anticipating and serving evolving needs
4. Inspiring and motivating others
5. Collaboration and mobilizing consensus
BLI also developed a framework, called The Bounce to describe the career trajectory of today's finance and accounting professional. The Bounce is the natural career trajectory for accounting and finance professionals. It talks about the process of acquiring technical mastery in the early career and beginning to supplement wit the critical skills (competencies) needed for long-term success. BLI has been leading the training and development of accounting and finance with these ‘success skills’ for eighteen years.
The Business Learning Institute (BLI) is the largest talent development and and learning provider to CPAs, accounting and finance professionals in the US. We bring our leading approach to ‘success skills’ and competency-based curriculums to the leading organizations, public companies and CPA firms all over North America.

Attracting & Retaining Top Talent: Millennials In the WorkplaceMcKonly & Asbury, LLP
This webinar will be hosted by McKonly & Asbury Human Resources Director, Suzanne Sentman, and Human Resources Coordinator, Holly Kressler.
Millennials, the cohort of Americans born between 1980 and the mid-2000s, now surpass Baby Boomers as the largest living U.S. generation. In 2013, they represented one-third of the total U.S population and by 2020, they are expected to make up half of the workforce. How are employers responding to this employee population shift?
This webinar will explore the defining characteristics of the Millennial generation and how companies can utilize this information to successfully attract, recruit, and retain these employees. As employers create a culture that supports this generation’s need and desire for career growth and advancement, best practices will be examined in areas such as recruiting, onboarding, training, and performance management.
The Future Workforce: Prepare for Hiring and Managing Talent in 2020 and BeyondSarah Brennan
Preparing for the future workforce: 2020 - A look at the impact of the Gen Y generation on the work force trends and how they will be shaping how we recruit, retain, develop and engage the workforce in coming decades. A look at the impact of technology, mobile, social, and more.
Presented by Sarah White (@ImSoSarah) founder of Accelir - a Strategic Advisory firm focused on talent. Sponsored by SAP SuccessFactors - A talent management platform.
You’ve seen the future for your organisation and it's unquestionably digital. But then the questions start: Who goes on the journey? How do you lead them along? What direction? How fast? What’s the path? Is the journey the same for everyone throughout the business?
Embarking on a Digital Transformation (DT) strategy can seem daunting enough. But when you apply that strategy to large teams, the numerous complexities and variables can make the whole project appear just too exhausting a proposition to even bother taking the first step, let alone all those steps that must inevitably follow if it is to succeed.
So how do you bring your team on the journey?
This SlideShare provides a framework for how companies can adopt new human resources management policies and work environments which will appeal to the unique values of Generation Y. It also serves as a reminder that satisfying the unique needs of Gen Y is essential for a company to recruit and retain talented employees. Because the number of Gen Ys is almost four times the size of the number of Generation X, it is in an organization’s best interest to take heed of the implications of this study.

Big Waves of Change, Oceans of Opportunity
These big waves of change are the result of a “perfect storm” of sorts -- the convergence of three “hard trends” of exponential technological innovation, the demographic shift as baby boomers retire, and globalization. Key challenges facing accounting and finance professionals are automation and digital transformation, succession and talent shortages, a “brain drain” as experienced people retire, business model changes, and the increasingly VUCA world (that’s volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity) in which we find ourselves.
Several recent studies (from WEF, Oxford, McKinsey and MIT) report that accounting, auditing and tax are among the occupations most at risk for complete automation within the next 20 years.
As a result, the accounting and finance profession is rapidly approaching what Andy Grove, retired CEO of Intel Corporation, described as a “strategic inflection point,” -- “a time in the life of a business when its fundamentals are about to change. That change can mean an opportunity to rise to new heights. But it may just as likely signal the beginning of the end.” This is where there are two major pathways: doing business as usual, or embracing and adapting to the new. At the moment these are fairly close together, but they will soon diverge into a growing gap between growth and success, or entropy and decline.
“You can’t stop the waves, but you can learn how to surf.” - Jon Kabat-Zinn
To take advantage of these oceans of opportunity, accounting and finance professionals will need to learn how to ride these big waves or risk being crushed by their frequency and force. The critical thing to know is that what got you here, won’t get you there. Business as usual simply won’t work.
Here are six ways to learn how to ride these big waves of change now and in the future:
1. Embrace digital: Learn how to elevate and accelerate your job using technology and to race with the machines, not against them.
2. Anticipate: Learn the critical competency of anticipation. Only those who constantly try to anticipate change will survive when change happens.
3. Collaborate: The collaboration curve is quickly replacing the experience curve. Who you know is replacing what you know.
4. Learning is the next competitive advantage: As Fast Company editor Robert Safian wrote, “the most important skill is the ability to acquire new skills.”
5. Protect the core: When everything is changing, it is important to know what should not change. Purpose and values for individuals and organizations should serve as that anchor or grounding.
6. Make time for the future. Your time and those of your people will be your number one challenge, and nothing will change if you are overwhelmed and too busy.
The hard trends are forming these big waves of disruption and change. Surf's Up - Are you ready?
Technical career journeys come in various shapes, sizes and trajectories. Some begin with pursuit of a technical degree or certification, while others may opt for a mid-career shift. No matter the path, it can be intimidating to move into a field where not many people look like you. In this session, you will learn best practices for navigating your career and accelerating your journey to technical excellence and leadership.
Millennials are now the largest demographic segment in America, surpassing the historically important Baby Boomers and the previous generation, Gen X.
Established brands and marketers have struggled to adjust to ‘millennial marketing’ because the typical approach that worked on older generation isn’t working anymore.
Your event marketing needs to keep up with the millennials, which means using new channels and methods, and a fundamental shift in your thoughts about marketing.

An ESN is an internal platform designed to foster collaboration, communication, and knowledge sharing among employees.
If your company doesn’t use an ESN, consider more than 90 percent of Fortune 500 companies partially or fully implemented an enterprise social network by the end of 2013, according to Deloitte analysis. This is a 70 percent increase over 2011.
We live in an age where marketing has been undergoing radical changes at such a rate that we’re still developing the best ways to accomplish work successfully. Each of the major aspects of digital marketing has developed in their own silos. Now we can gain enormous economies and efficiencies through more internal collaboration and by tearing down those silos.
In this webinar, our panelists will share:
-Company cultures that support information sharing and collaboration.
-How to identify which business areas can benefit from increased communication.
-Tips on choosing software for your company’s, department’s, and team’s needs.
-Social networks aimed at businesses.
-Ways to improve participation in enterprise social networks.
There’s no doubt that organizations are increasingly reliant on external expertise. And that raises big questions for human resources: How clear is our strategy and philosophy of contingent staffing? How involved is HR in managing external expertise on behalf of their organizations, and how involved should it be? How well does our workforce planning incorporate external experts into a total workforce plan? How well do our systems and policies support our ability to attract the best external talent, and their productivity?
In this spotlight webinar, Norm Smallwood and Jon Younger, authors of “Agile Talent: How to Source and Manage Outside Experts” will deliver insight on how talent leaders can successfully manage, mobilize and maximize the contributions of agile talent.
During this Spotlight webinar, attendees will explore:
-The challenge of agile talent.
-What strategic agile talent management looks like.
-How leaders need to change how they think and act to make the most from this agile workforce.
-The role of HR now, and the implications of an HR strategic approach to agile talent.

In this age of digital transformation, the speed of business propels at breakneck pace. Thirty years ago, companies moved much slower, akin to a Class-II whitewater rapid. The executives at the helm of the lead boat negotiated the rapids dragging everyone else behind in another boat. Support functions and many individuals definitely didn’t have a place in the lead boat, but it didn’t matter much, as the convoy still succeeded moving at a manageable pace.
But today, companies demand agility, responsiveness, and foresight as they traverse dangerous Class-VI rapids. Insufficient or ineffective communication fostered or hindered by Relevancy of individuals and Teams across all disciplines leaves your organization perched precariously on the edge of a major crisis, potentially provoking financial catastrophe, deteriorating customer loyalty, and brand presence.
Damage comes in more insidious forms as well, including the repercussions of ineffective production and communication, or the cancer of a toxic organizational culture. Despite these treacherous waters, we are still often not asked to be part of the lead boat. Pat Bodin, the best-selling author of Get in the Boat: A Journey to Relevance, will discuss organizational relevance and actionable items to give you the opportunity to earn a seat in the lead boat.
Impacts of Organizational Relevance include:
For the Individual:
Elevates their awareness of the needs of all groups within the organization
Broadens their visibility to the core operations in support of its’ needs
Creates improved job satisfaction and belonging
For the Organization:
Strengthens the working relationships across all disciplines and improves retention
Fosters Talent Development
Drives performance through common focus between individuals and groups
THE AGILITY SHIFT: T-MOBILE DEVELOPS LEADERS FOR A VUCA WORLDHuman Capital Media
A volatile, uncertain, complex, ambiguous (VUCA) workplace requires a distinct set of leadership competencies: non-hierarchical influence, the ability to rapidly align across functions, creativity for drawing insights across domains, and most of all, “empathy,” the linchpin leadership skill in the modern workplace. Empathy allows us to imagine the world from different perspectives, unite across functions, generations, regions. Join Melissa Lanier of T-Mobile to learn about “The Agility Shift,” an award-winning leader development offering designed to equip people managers to thrive in an uncertain, complex, and ambiguous environment. The program, which will utilize cutting-edge virtual simulation technology, is designed to help leaders respond quickly and increase resilience by immersively preparing them for stressful encounters. Impact is measured on an individual, function and business level. Collectively, managers report learning how to “avoid tunnel vision,” "think on their feet," “respond rather than react” and embrace a positive mindset.
FUTUREPROOF YOUR ORGANIZATION: SUCCESSION PLANNING IN THE SKILLS ECONOMYHuman Capital Media
According to Bersin by Deloitte, only 33% of millennials believe their organizations are using their skills well, and 42% say they are likely to leave because they are not learning fast enough. Developing new knowledge, new skills and new abilities is critical to futureproofing your organization’s evolving talent needs. Additionally, assessing the abilities of your talent is essential to understanding the profiles of your employees and ensuring the right role is filled with the right ability. Whether employees need development or have mastered success, understanding the skill profile of your talent is critical to futureproof organizational growth and innovation. This session explores ways to fine-tune your talent’s abilities to perform their job duties as well as future ones.
Attendees of this presentation will have a clear understanding of:
Methods to assess the skills and abilities of your talent to ensure the right role is filled with the right employee.
Ways to incorporate development, skills assessments and succession planning into employee performance conversations.
How to create now the company culture you want to be then.
Many companies seem to have fallen victim to the ominous skills gap – but only because they’ve found it’s easier to place blame somewhere than to look at what they can do to fix it. If you’re struggling to find qualified candidates, you might need to take a deeper look at your organization and ask some pointed questions. Are there areas of the recruiting process that are lending to skill gaps? Have you done a formal assessment to uncover skill gaps? Are you using modern learning methods to bridge gaps by upskilling your current workforce?
Join Katie Miller from BizLibrary as we re-evaluate potential root causes of your organization’s skill gaps and discuss what can be done to fill them efficiently.
In this webinar, you’ll learn:
The factors that could be contributing to your skill gaps, and how to find and address the root causes
How to re-evaluate what a “qualified candidate” is in order to create more relevant and realistic talent expectations
How to start uncovering your organization’s skill gaps with a formal assessment
How to use modern training methods to bridge skill gaps by upskilling your workforce
Behind every successful organization is a great team of leaders. But despite billions of dollars spent each year on leadership development programs most companies are still failing their next generation of emerging leaders. In fact, according to Gallup, 50% of attrition is due to poor managers––which makes that the biggest driver of employee disengagement.
So why are leadership development programs failing? And how can we fix it?
Join us for a live webinar where we discuss reasons these programs fail and how to keep your leadership development on track. We’ll explore:
How to identify who should be a leader in the first place
The big, pervasive problem with leadership development
What to do with great employees who might not be cut out for management
The best traits to bring out of your emerging leaders

REACHING THE BLUE COLLAR WORKFORCE: HOW POLARIS DEVELOPS TALENT IN 2019Human Capital Media
Traditional L&D isn’t obsolete, but it has become outdated. That’s why we collected data from nearly 800 workers, managers, and leaders from around the globe to gain some insights into where L&D and talent leaders can be more effective. The survey says…..L&D is falling short for the modern workforce. In fact, our respondents gave their employers an overall Net Promoter Score of -25 on their learning and development strategies. But many business leaders know this already. What they don’t know is how to fix it. The good news is that employees still love learning and they’re looking for organizational guidance. By honing in on the data and insights that impact how people — and companies — learn, you can make smarter investments in your most valuable assets: the skills of your people. Lucky for you, this event also includes a quick case study from Booking.com on how they are making this data come to life in their organization.
Register for this webinar to learn:
The difference between learning and acquiring new skills
How to apply hard metrics to your L&D strategy

HIRING & FIRING AROUND THE WORLD: AVOID LEGAL TRIPWIRES IN THE TOP COUNTRIES ...Human Capital Media
The war for talent is heating up and businesses are smart to consider qualified, passionate candidates from around the world.
That said, hiring and firing in countries other than the U.S. comes with interesting (and often surprising) challenges.
In the U.S., companies can hire quickly as business entities are already established. They can fire quickly as well, so long as the reason isn’t illegal.
What many executive teams overlook is that this efficiency isn’t the same when expanding and adding team members globally. Internationally, hiring without setting up a subsidiary is impossible. And the concept of at-will employment, where companies can let go of employees at any time, does not exist.
What does this mean for your international expansion plans and your business? What would normally be an uneventful employment action or termination in the U.S. could blindside your company in an international context.
Navigating the intricacies of country-specific labor laws can feel like a minefield of potential legal exposure, expensive litigation, and costly payouts. It’s critical to be prepared before you make the first international hire.
In this webinar, you’ll learn:
3 things every HR lead needs to know when it’s time to hire globally
Surprising facts about employment law and benefits packages in EMEA, APAC and more
What U.S.-based HR teams need to know about the termination process in key expansion countries (and real stories from international HR specialists on the ground)

Dont wait what 300 ld leaders have learned about building data fluencyHuman Capital Media
Data science and AI are impacting many industries globally, from healthcare and government to agriculture and finance. Everybody needs to be able to work with data the way everybody needed to start using email 20 years ago. As we wrote in Harvard Business Review, “Very few companies expect only professional writers to know how to write. So why ask only professional data scientists to understand and analyze data, at least at a basic level?”
But what value can data fluency actually add, what are best practices to build it into your organization, and what are the biggest challenges that businesses encounter in data-driven transformations?
To answer these questions and more, we conducted a survey of over 300 Learning and Development leaders from diverse industries including healthcare, technology, consumer goods, government, and finance. Join this webinar with Dr. Hugo Bowne-Anderson, a data scientist and educator at DataCamp, to find out what we discovered and what 300 L&D leaders have learned about building data fluency.
Learning Objectives:
What value can data fluency actually add?
What are the best practices to build data fluency in your organization?
What are the biggest challenges that businesses encounter in data-driven transformations?
As businesses become more technological (AI and robotics), there is a challenge and opportunity to, paradoxically, make them more human. The Business Roundtable talked about the importance of human stakeholders over just profit — but how close are we? Are those nice words? What would it take to make business and change more human? As a change, ethics and leadership expert with 40 years of experience, Paul Gibbons will talk us through conclusions from his new book “IMPACT.”
LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
1) Is the Fourth Industrial Revolution really "a thing?” What is it and what makes our time special?
2) What are the human implications of new technologies? Who will benefit? What is the potential harm?
3) What can workplaces and leaders do to equip themselves for these workplace transformations (future of work)?
Courage (noun): the mental or moral strength to venture, persevere, and withstand danger, fear, or difficulty. Author Ryan Berman has devoted the past three years interviewing many of the most courageous people and leaders on the planet. Through this experience, he learned that the companies that win share courageousness as a trait. Berman unveils how every brand can unlock courage in their people, leaders or culture. This presentation culminates with ways for the audience to take action today to transform from a Coward Brand or Stasis Brand into a Courage Brand.
After this discussion you’ll be able to:
Build a culture of empowered, courageous behavior and experimentation.
Utilize a modern day, step-by-step framework to becoming a Courage Brand.
Overcome the clarity epidemic we currently find ourselves in.
Create true conviction and healthy retention with your best people.
