Dear friends of the St. John Fisher College OL/HRD Masters Program,
You are invited to our next professional workshop, on Saturday April 20, 2013 from 9:00 am to noon. Our presenter will be Professor Wayne Cascio.
Dr .Cascio is a world recognized thought leader in the field of Human Resources. He has authored or edited 27 books on HR management; he has published hundreds of articles and papers; he consults routinely across the globe to governments and private sector firms; and he is a regular contributor to such business media as the Wall Street Journal, Newsweek, The New York Times, Harvard Business Review, and National Public Radio. Wayne is currently a Distinguished University Professor at the University of Colorado, Denver. He has served as president of the Society of Industrial and Organizational Psychology; Chair of the SHRM Foundation; member of the Academy of Management's Board of Governors; and Fellow of the National Academy of Human Resources. In 2008, Wayne was named by the Journal of Management as one of the most influential scholars in management in the last 25 years.
Wayne's presentation is entitled "Making HR Measurement Strategic; and Managing HR Risks: Dangers and Opportunities". In organizations, what gets measured gets done. Wayne's talk will touch on key ideas related to an HR framework for measurement that enables HR professionals to decide what to measure and how contribute at a strategic level; assess relevant risks; and move beyond simply avoiding unpleasant consequences to focusing on game-changing opportunities for innovation.
Please note, this session will be held in the Wilson Formal Lounge. This room is located across from the Security Office, in the same building as Student Dining. (Please note: if you are lost, ask for the Security Office in the Haffey Building; then see the large conference building directly across the hall)
If you wish to attend, please RSVP to DrSethRSilver@aol.com so we can plan the
room and refreshments accordingly. We expect a large turnout for this session. As the room can only accommodate 90 maximum, RSVPs will be taken on a first come,
first serve basis. This session is free of charge.
Please join us for what I am sure will be a very stimulating workshop, which will provide you with new HR related insights to bring back to your organization, to help it and you become more successful. I look forward to seeing you all on Saturday April 20, at 9:00 am.
