Early Bird Session

The Secret Language of Business: Workplace Politics, Power and Influence …What They Don’t Teach You in School with Margaret Morford
Achieving goals and objectives in an organization requires more than just smart people working hard. It requires savvy managers who know how to forge alliances and avoid animosity. Which political rules are employees most likely to violate? Do you have guidelines for being smart about your conduct, business communication, and relationships with co-workers and supervisors. Participants in this presentation will learn how to recognize who really holds power and has influence, and how to tap into the power structure that exists in every organization.

Breakout Session One

Retaining High Caliber Employees with Diane Durkin
Today’s competitive workplace requires employers to design innovative and cost effective ways to retain their best employees. Money is a factor, but it’s not the only one. Employees want employers to support continued development, provide stimulating work assignments, champion them individuality, and help them balance personal needs with workplace demands. That’s not too much to ask for, is it? This presentation will examine the types of innovative programs necessary to create an engaging and invigorating environment for the workforce of the future, such as communication strategies to monitor the employee pulse, programs developed for every stage of life, community service as a development tool, and managing a flexible workforce.

Global HR Strategies for a Flatter World with Steven Miranda
Whether you work at a huge multinational headquartered in Berlin, Germany or a small company in Berlin, New Hampshire, the business world of today is shaped by the global economy. What are the effects of globalization in a small market like ours? Recruitment and retention strategies, talent management, and many other HR functions are highly impacted by global factors, including the new economic powerhouses and major off-shoring destinations like India and China. Come learn now globalization effects even a small market like New Hampshire.

Financial Wellness: A Benefit in Workplaces of the Future with Timothy Dabrieo
A survey conducted by the American Psychological Association reported that 8 out of 10 people identify money and the economy as significant sources of stress. A survey conducted by the Consumer Credit Counseling Service found that employees experiencing financial stress spent 13% of the workday dealing with money matters while on the job. How much is this costing your company in lost productivity? Financial wellness is not about money, it’s about decision making. That philosophy is central to the objectives of any financial wellness program. The goal is to help your employees build an awareness of their financial profile, provide them with information to enable them to establish financial goals for themselves, and empower them to change their behavior so that they can accomplish their objectives. While financial wellness is not a new concept, it is a new program that progressive companies are implementing to provide their employees with the work-life balance inherent in the workplace of the future.
