Strategic Partnership with Impact, June 2010

Los Angeles
June 2-4, 2010

With John Boudreau and Pete Ramstad

Where will talent and organization investments make the biggest difference in your strategic success?

 

This seminar provides a proven framework that helps business, HR, and organization leaders answer this key question.

You will learn and apply the framework featured in Beyond HR, (Harvard Business School Publishing), by John Boudreau and Pete Ramstad. Using that framework, Boudreau and Ramstad show you how to analyze your own strategy to uncover hidden vital pivot-points where your HR and talent management will make their biggest strategic contribution.

The seminar is built on Boudreau and Ramstad's unique "decision science" for talent that uses many of the same principles of decision sciences such as Finance and Marketing. This framework has enabled organizations to achieve true line-of-sight between HR investments and their sustainable strategic success.

This framework and the Talentship decision science are based on 10 years of research, application, and work with leading organizations.

Benefits

Format

This is a highly interactive workshop. Participants work directly with tools to analyze organizational strategy at all levels. You will use tools to identify the "lenses" that reveal where talent and organization decisions most affect strategic and business success, and the implications for human resource and organization practices. You will practice by applying these tools to available information from their organizations, and you will learn about other organizations through discussion and break-out work.
