Human capital - Strategic management and reporting
Day One: 21 October 2008

To reveal the true value of people.
This Masterclass will help prepare you for the biggest revolution in management thinking in several generations - Human Capital Management
(HCM). It explains how direct links can be made between progressive human capital practices and long term organisational success.

HR Measurement and Benchmarking
Day Two: 22 October 2008

For HR professionals who need to become Business Partners.
Trying to establish the contribution that HR makes to the bottom line is a notoriously complex and problematic issue. Part of this involves linking all HR activity to the business strategy and operating plans. Now the challenge is even greater. Increasing cost and competitive pressures have resulted in measurement and benchmarking of the HR function staying at the top of the agenda.

Develop a Learning Strategy
Day Three: 23 October 2008

That can be evaluated with a clear ROI.
In a modern, global economy only those organisations that learn faster and more effectively than their competitors will survive. Creativity and innovation only thrive in a learning organisation. So you need a well-conceived, coherent learning strategy that has the full backing of the board based on a clear business case of the value it will bring. This Masterclass starts from this premise and it will help you formulate and develop just such a learning strategy. One that provides the glue that draws together everyone's efforts towards a common goal of improving individual and organisational effectiveness and creating significant value.
