Perspectives: Stick together
Maintaining employee relations in an age of disconnect
Findings from the newly released 2024 State of Talent Optimization Report reveal that HR is the center of the (business) universe. Nestled between executives, managers, employees, and candidates, HR professionals must address the diverse needs of this broad array of stakeholders.
In this webinar, we will explore the critical relationship between HR and employees. Let’s face it; as Dr. Matt Poepsel often says, “HR has kleenex in their office for a reason. We bring you our pain.” Yet, the relationship between HR and the employee base can be strained at times due to lack of perceived trust, a need to represent the company’s interests, and much more.
In this webinar, you will learn:
- how to create a culture where employee relations can thrive
- how HR can approach their work that balances transactions and relationships
- how HR can repair relationships that have soured
- what new tools & techniques HR can use to connect with employees
Bonus for our live attendees… tune in live for 1 HRCI and 1 SHRM credit!
