  Change Management Roundtable Presents DRIVING CHANGE: WHAT DOES IT REALLY TAKE TO SUCCEED?

  Thursday, May 31, 2012, 7.30-9.45am

   

  The stakes are higher than ever - yet the statistics are grim: Canadian CEOs reported their ability to manage change as 33% lower than needed ("IBM Global Making Change Work Study, 2008").

  As Leaders, we need our people to quickly overcome resistance and get excited about smashing through status quo.  When this happens then executing the new strategy (new culture, processes and systems) is attainable! Great visions and compliance are not enough. Have a second look at the statistics.
  

   

  Insightful companies get this - and have successes to show for it. We want to know their secret - how they pragmatically operationalize change that delivers powerful ROI.

   

  Our keynotes will share their respective challenges and approaches. Find out what it takes to turn a great idea into reality!

   

  Join us in a conversation with those who have done the same.

   

  Experienced change leaders in one of this decade's hottest disciplines - sharing their learning that took decades to find and hone.

  HUMAN CAPITAL COUNCIL PRESENTS   ENABLING CHANGE:  BUILDING AND DELIVERING TALENT STRATEGIES

  Thursday, June 7, 2012, 5.30-8.30pm

   

  Canada's largest retailer and private employer has been among the Top 100 Great Places to Work for the past several years - a success worthy of a closer look to see what we can learn from this.

   

  In fast changing and volatile market places, to compete and successfully sustain leadership requires businesses to deliver on strong KPIs.  But, what drives the KPI success?  The answer is: the ability and agility to enable, facilitate and embrace change - and that requires talent!

   

  Nan Oldroyd, VP, HR at Loblaw Companies Limited, knows all about this first hand.  Her professional and personal passion for talent strategies that work is rich and deep with experience. 

   

  We invite you to join us on June 7th for an evening of exchanging stories, experiences and conversations with our peers and experts.

   

  "Stories are the most ancient form of learning - it touches the head and the heart."
