The Business-Driven HR workshop targets Senior HR management professionals responsible for formulating and or implementing the strategy, HR Business Partners, Organizational Development Specialists and Practitioners, HR Consultants and anyone who has aspirations of becoming an HR Director. The participants will be inculcated with the benefits of understanding the purpose, implication and value of Strategic HR, understanding and exploring how to incorporate the “Next Generation Service Delivery” roles into their current HR practice, assessing organizational problems or challenges by exploring a variety of options for tackling the challenges based on how they may impact on employee resourcefulness as well as undertaking appropriate interventions for improvement, exploring the various ‘organic’ processes that are often overlooked but can have the greatest impact on the success of HR interventions and understanding the opportunities to consider how to be more entrepreneurial to add maximum value as a Strategic Support Service to the organization.
The workshop is structured so as to make it self-managed and extremely interactive with a clear focus on being process driven with discussion sessions, critiquing challenging questions, practical exercises & applications leading to practice by reviewing and analyzing data to draw conclusions. The modules in the Business-Driven HR Workshop include Setting the Context for Next Generation HR, Strategic and/or Organic Problem-Solving Process, what it means to be an HR Entrepreneur, and a session on Evaluation and ROI. An application exercise which simulates the world of work is the final module helping to practice the skills learned during the workshop. The workshop will close with a discussion and action plan on the application of learning in the workplace.
