Participants will leave with action plans on introducing or forwarding these initiatives within their organizations and career pathing ideas for developing individual success strategies. Through a series of case studies and discussions, learn more about how to apply the SHRM Code of Ethical and Professional Standards in Human Resources. As an HR professional you are often faced with challenging choices and decisions. In this session you will have a chance to interact with other HR professionals as they face some of these difficult choices. The cases will cover issues in areas such as hiring, policy application, compensation, conflicts of interest and other areas requiring you to make ethical decisions.
Failure is often more interesting than success.
This thought-provoking presentation applies modern Human Resource principles to an historical tragedy. In 1846, George Donner led a group to California. They made poor decisions, were trapped in the Sierra Nevada mountains, and resorted to cannibalism to survive. Karl Ahlrichs is a direct descendant of George Donner, and recently re-created the path taken by his ancestors. Maintain calm and hold onto your energy during the day despite ringing phones, nagging coworkers or difficult clients.
