Setting SMARTie Goals for 2010: Complimentary webinar on January 26, 2010 at 10 am PDT

Many of the companies shamed during the great recession had trained their managers to set SMART goals for their departments and direct reports.

So, why didn't those SMART goals help us in tough times? That's because SMART goals are much easier to craft than control. Putting them on paper is nothing compared to consistently meeting and exceeding them.

That's why you need SMART 2.0.

I'm adding the letters I and E to make your 2010 goals SMARTie: Innovative and Ethical. There will be 45 minutes of presentation and 10-15 minutes of Q&A.

Enroll now in this complimentary webinar, as space is limited.

Management Best Practices for Recession Recovery: Special Webinar for SHRM Members on January 21, 2010 at 11 am PDT

While better times for your organization and team may not yet be the reality, several signs point to a better 2010.

To prepare for a healthier economy, managers will have to dust off some old management practices while embracing some new ones. Rushing to hire and curtailing 1:1 time and group discussions are two "don't you dare" practices. Emphasizing innovation for everyone's sake is a "must do."

In this webinar, we'll discover those practices, and how they will help your organization, your team members and your personal professional development.

SHRM members may register for free.

If you are not a SHRM member and wish to participate, please contact us to schedule a complimentary session for your department.

Look No Further: HR is the Coach: A 6-Session Webinar Series

Become more than one HR person to approach when one is in need; become the person to consult.

Why You Need to Think About This

As budgets get smaller, the pile on your plate, as an HR professional, gets larger and more complex. Complaints and concerns of numerous types increase when times get tough, and the requests you receive during downturns are in addition to the routine inquires you receive any day of the year, in any economic climate.

What You Must Do

Employees and their managers now require guidance regarding what actions to take and what words to use—as they navigate through continued uncertainty.

In daily conversations, there are options on how to operate. The most common choice is to administer advice and swiftly direct people towards solutions. Or, you can think bigger. You can think strategically on how to most efficiently use your expertise towards helping the organization thrive in lean and flush times.

How You Can Do It

Using coaching in your 1:1 and team meetings with your clients increases your visibility as an expert and that of HR as a strategic function. When HR managers, directors, and VPs use coaching models and tools to aid their clients in identifying and solving challenges, they offer expertise of a transformational nature. 

This 6-part webinar is ideal for HR professionals with limited coaching experience and knowledge as well as those who desire a practical refresher of just-in-time coaching methods. Review the agenda to see everything you will learn.
