Helping Employers and Employees Thrive in the New Normal Global Economy: Implications for HR, Work Life, Diversity and Talent Management

Agenda | Register

Dear Colleague:

Please join us the 2010 Work Life Conference! We have designed this year’s conference to serve as a magnifying glass for understanding “the new normal” and the often confusing trends that are swirling all around us as well as binoculars for seeing what is ahead on the horizon. At the conference, you will find the latest, most relevant research and the most promising company practices. You will also find tools and resources to help you and your company navigate this “new normal” in ways that work for the employer, the employee and the community.

This annual work life conference has become known as the thought leader event in identifying emerging issues and providing insight and knowledge that inspires and leads to change. Some of the issues this conference will address are:

  • Leadership in the new normal: New skills for an uncertain world
  • Communication in the new normal: Rewriting the rules for how we communicate
  • Innovation in the new normal: How companies and individuals can release their creative potential
  • The Corporate Lattice™: Redefining career paths in the new normal

Interactive workshops will feature what’s new in research and promising practices from leading companies. Among the many topics are:

  • Tools for helping high performers manage work load and stay engaged
  • International perspectives on work life
  • New understandings about generation and gender
  • Promoting employees’ energy and health

We are especially thrilled to announce that, in partnership with Corporate Voices for Working Families, we will host a special evening reception on March 25th that will provide the current public policy landscape for work life issues.

Who should attend? Executives in Human Resources, including work life, diversity, talent management, and workforce strategists, as well as non-HR executives who are interested in becoming “co-conspirators” for creating organization, social and economic change to effectively navigate—and thrive—in the new normal.

Questions? Please contact Tyler Wigton or Sharon Huang at 212-465-2044 or worklifeconference@familiesandwork.org.

We look forward to seeing you in March!
