New methods of managing acquiring\, nurturing and retaining talent will be essential for a competitive organization. In this half-day workshop\, a series of presenters will bring tools ever y HR leader should have in their toolkit and executive should hear. \ ;\n \;\nSession 1 (8:00 – 9:00 a.m.): \;\nFrom Start-Up to High-Gr owth: Shaping a Culture for Success \;\nThe shift from a start-up cu lture has caused many promising companies to stumble. EthicsPoint presi dent and CEO David Childers will present the step-by-step process his co mpany took to consciously reconstruct its corporate culture. This two-ye ar-long project has helped EthicsPoint exceed growth and revenue expecta tions and position itself for international expansion. \;\n \;\n Session 2 (9:00 – 10:00 a.m.) \;\nTurning the Job They Have Into the Job They Want \;\nFor many companies the downturn has stalled growth \, which in turn has left employees feeling “stuck” in their jobs. This dissatisfaction can be especially difficult in technology companies whe re employees are attracted to working fast paced growth and changing env ironments. Via Skype\, Dr. Jane Dutton from University of Michigan wil l share the Job Crafting Exercise\, a low cost\, powerful tool that the Center for Positive Organizational Scholarship has developed. \;\n& #13\;\nSession 3 (10:15 – 11:15 a.m.) \;\nPerformance Appraisals – Th e Next Act \;\nFew issues in management stir up more controversy than performance appraisal. \;\n \;\nThere are many reputable sources - researchers\, management commentators\, psychometricians - who have ex pressed doubts about the validity and reliability of the performance app raisal process. Some have even suggested that the process is so inherent ly flawed that it may be impossible to perfect it. At the other extreme \, there are many strong advocates of performance appraisal. Some view i t as potentially the most crucial aspect of organizational life (Lawrie\ , 1990). Dr. Steve Hunt will talk about how the performance management process is shifting from an administrative process used to justify pay d ecisions to a forward focused tool for enabling business execution. \;\n \;\nComplete workshop information can be found here: http:/ /www.techamerica.org/talentmanagementworkshop \;\n \;\nDetails: 3\;\nWhen: Thursday\, September 30\, 2010 \;\nTime: 7:30 – 11:30 a. m. \;\nWhere: Multnomah Athletic Club\, 1849 SW Salmon St.\, Portlan d\, Ore. \;\nCost: $195 TechAmerica Members\, $225 Nonmembers (Group rates available - email kari.naone@techamerica.org for details) \;\n \n\nTags: talent management\, professional development\, training\, huma n resources\, hr\, human resource\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org /events/1250459190 URL:http://www.techamerica.org/talentmanagementworkshop SUMMARY:TechAmerica Talent Management Workshop: Tools for the Twenty Firs t Century Workforce LOCATION:Multnomah Athletic Club (MAC): 1849 Sw Salmon St\, Portland OR 9 7205 US SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20101011T165743Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20101111T203000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20101111T173000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20101011T165743Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20101019T185204Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250459346 DESCRIPTION:The financial crisis left technology companies experiencing s alary freezes\, layoffs\, shifts in equity compensation\, mandatory time -off along with additional cost-cutting measures.

Whether you are the one having the conversation or the one on the receiving end\, unders tanding the mechanics of this process changes the experience from one of trauma to one of professional integrity. \;\nStop fearing the conver sation.
