Institute for Work and Health – Plenary Series – November 2009. "Job Quality – What is it, why does it matter, and how can it be improved?" This presentation examines the diverse theories, concepts and practices that address the quality of jobs, work environments, and individuals’ work experiences. On this broad canvas, we can identify points of convergence around key sets of determinants and outcomes. However, a common conceptual vocabulary is lacking, which impedes cross-fertilization across disciplines and between researchers and practitioners. The most promising opportunity for an integrated approach is around the connection between work environments, employee well-being, and organizational performance. Practitioners and policy makers need a basic model explaining these complex dynamics. By taking up this challenge, researcher would help ensure that future decisions to improve job quality are informed by evidence.
If the opportunities and challenges faced by your non-profit require increasing flexibility and responsiveness then this webinar may be for you.
Wherever people work together, they make choices that influence the flexibility and responsiveness of your organization. In other words, they govern each other. How they govern their use of resources is not just luck, it can be “designed”.
This interactive webinar will explore how to create capacity for flexibility and responsiveness by systematically building relationships that are strength based.

Start the New Year Right — Focus Learning Through Competencies in 2013Human Capital Media
Competencies have been a part of the learning discussion for some time. And, depending on where they are in the cycle of opinion about their value, can trend higher or lower. Recently, some have stated that competencies are no longer welcome in the workplace, or have little value alongside an individual’s business goals. Esoterically speaking, there may be some truth to this. We are not, however, talking about old core values, nor are we trying to define what makes an employable corporate citizen. Rather, we are talking about what aligns a job function/family or what is a specific differentiator for level or role.
Job-specific, task-oriented competencies, associated with tools employees can use and relate to, make a significant positive difference in:
Best practices sharing.
Capturing institutional memory.
Providing consistent communication.
Setting clear expectations for hiring, performance, career engagement and development.
Providing clear skills management and mitigation for workforce planning.
Enabling flexibility in assignments and roles while accelerating capability to learn and deliver.
In this webinar, you will:
Hear case studies and research validating the justification for a learning strategy.
Learn some of the ways to relate business outcomes from learning.
Understand how the Kenexa Job Competency Library can make learning not just on the job, but targeted at the job.
