Presented by Paula Bell, CBAP, Paula A. Bell Consulting, LLC
In order for anything to be successful it must start with a foundation. For example, before you build a house you must have a foundation, before you become a business analyst you must build a foundation (skill set and knowledge), and before you make changes you must have a foundation for a change (the process). One thing that is constant is change. The reason projects exists is because there is a need for change.
What attendees will receive out of this presentation:
·
Why a change management process is needed
·
What real change is
·
How to create a change management process

Your Own Terms: Taking Charge of Any Negotiation
Presented by Dr. Yasmin Davidds, PSY. D., Founder and CEO of Women’s Institute of Negotiation
When women negotiate, to what degree should they disclose what they hope to receive from the negotiation, and how should they go about revealing their desires? The answer to a great extent depends on the type of person they are negotiating with and how they wish the other to perceive them.
In order for women to position themselves properly in any
negotiation, they must learn to identify and adapt to their counterpart’s
negotiation style.
What You Will Learn
·
Identify their own negotiation style
·
Identify other peoples’ negotiation styles
·
Position themselves for a win-win outcome

Building Practical Learning and Development Frameworks for Real World Performance: Strategies for Success
Presented by Betsey Frank, Sanford Gold, and Nicholas Igneri
Are you and your Learning & Development team more:
·
Reactive? Like
Firefighters, you react to employee performance problems by providing immediate
L&D solutions to whatever needs arise
OR
·
Proactive? Like
Fire Prevention Architects, who have designed an L&D framework to
proactively provide employee development programs—aligned with
corporate strategies—in all key areas
One size does not—should not—fit all.
Rather, a learning framework can serve multiple employee development needs. Or, you may need several variations of a framework to meet varying needs in different areas of your organization.
What You Will Learn
·
You will learn how three award-winning companies have built
learning frameworks and related models to meet diverse talent needs and
challenges.
·
Review the elements of a comprehensive framework to ensure
your L&D programs support corporate goals and focus on your specific
requirements whether they be:
o
Broad talent development throughout your organization,
o
Functional skill improvement within a cohort, and/or
o
Cultural or behavior change starting with the “C Suite”
·
No matter how many goals or pathways you may need to take
for achieving them, you will also learn proven strategies for identifying and
embedding your organization’s core values and philosophies into your frameworks
for developing employee performance.
While attending this program is FREE, reservations are required.
