Detailed Overview/Outline

Strategic planning is essential for today's human resources professionals. Just having a HR philosophy of service to the organization is not enough. HR's focus must remain on the organization's business plan.

Strategic HR planning encompasses strategy, department operations, prioritization of initiatives that link to business strategy, a marketing plan, and a budget that supports these efforts. HR professionals must understand the assimilation of these components to desired outcomes from the HR function and its overall impact on organizational results. This workshop offers this multidimensional perspective. You will:

• Recognize and appreciate the ever-changing role of HR
• Translate the new role into identifying "value-added" services for the organization
• Focus on an HR impact model
