RESPONSIBLY MEETING THE CHALLENGE OF TODAY’S
BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT,
PREPARING FOR TOMORROW’S
a dialogue among leaders

leadership luncheon attendees engaged in a lecture

Join in conversation with experienced leaders as we prepare for the challenges of tomorrow by exploring the lessons of the past and best practices of today. Amidst near-historic levels of unemployment and widespread reductions in force, these corporate leaders and HR professionals will share their unique perspectives on the challenges of our times. We will seek answers to these and other relevant questions.

  • How do we protect the dignity of our employees when we downsize? 
  • What obligations do we have to employees nearing retirement?
  • How do we maintain morale within our remaining workforce?
  • How much and what kind of information should we share with employees?
  • What outplacement services are most effective?
  • What does today’s environment bode for the future of HR?
