During this presentation, Crystal will dispel the top 5 most common Millennial myths, re-establish behavior-based understanding, and recommend related particular organizational changes for modern talent. Crystal will share a new context for the Millennial discussion: Millennials are not about uncovering fleeting generational traits, but about understanding the implications of the step-change in society that has occurred (the step-change primarily being the advent of digital technology). Crystal will transform five stereotypes (lazy, entitled, need feedback, disrespectful and disloyal) into unbiased behaviors and related organizational changes. Additionally, Crystal will review the impact of leaders taking on this new lens/approach to leading HR and how they can SOAHR!

Session learning objectives:

• Attendees will question their assumptions regarding generations, especially Millennials in the workplace using Crystal's formative event framework

EMPLOYMENT LAW & LEGISLATION BALLROOM A


SHRM Competencies:

• Business Acumen• Leadership & Navigation• Relationship Management• Communication

This entertaining presentation centers around the unbelievable yet true requests and demands that employees make of their employers. We will explore things such as leave demands, data removal, work from home requests, non-disability related accommodation needs, and general employee "wants." Attendees will gain an appreciation as to why certain non-mandatory requests should be granted. Employee morale and employee relations can be profoundly impacted by such decisions. The risk/benefit analysis will also be put to the test. Finally, we will explain reasonable and rational employer responses and how the communication of a decision can mean the di�erence between success and failure.


• Explore employee requests that are legally required• Learn about employee requests that are simply "wants"• Get helpful employer responses to various types of

THE ENGAGEMENT FRAMEWORK: A LEADERSHIP AND CHANGE FRAMEWORK FOR THE 21ST CENTURY

Frederick Jewell & Tracy Reznik, Jabian Consulting


BUSINESS ACUMEN & STRATEGY BALLROOM B

Applies to: Mid to Senior Level HR Professionals

SHRM-Competencies:

• Leadership & Navigation• Business Acumen• Relationship Management• Critical Evaluation• Communication

Most frameworks for leadership and managing change rely on an overly simplistic view of the levers available to leaders striving to drive engagement and productivity in their workforce. An engaged workforce is more productive and better at serving its customers, but it is impossible to directly touch and change the drivers of engagement. This session will walk through a comprehensive yet usable framework that covers the six drivers of engagement (growth, relationships, security, autonomy, fairness and well-being) and the collection of fifteen alignment, governance, and implementation levers available to business leaders to influence those engagement drivers. The framework is useful for designing change programs, diagnosing and addressing employee engagement issues, culture transformation, team dynamics, and coaching.


• Understand the six drivers of engagement and how you manifest yourself within an individual or an organization

• Understand the levers available to leaders to influence those engagement drivers

• Know how to apply The Engagement Framework when diagnosing issues or developing solutions

SESSION DESCRIPTIONS

Brett Ward, CFI Vice President of Client Relations, Wicklander-Zulawski & Associates Inc.


TALENT ACQUISITION & RETENTION ROOM 104

Applies to: Mid-Level to Senior HR Professional

SHRM Competencies:

• Ethical Practice• Relationship Management• Communication

How many times have you been in the middle of a conversation with your employees (colleagues, neighbors, kids etc.) and wondered what percentage of what's coming out of their mouth is in the zip code of the truth? I'm guessing this number is equivalent to the number of times you've been faced with the ever-growing “my boss hates me” scenario only to learn a request for e�ort now equals an unhealthy atmosphere. Want to learn proven techniques by skilled investigators who've conducted thousands of integrity-based interviews around the globe? This is your session. Come learn from the leaders in the industry on how to e�ectively negotiate during sensitive interviews (workplace investigations).


• Develop a better understanding of behavioral analysis and its application to multiple interview processes the HR professional needs to be e�ective

BUSINESS PROCESS TECHNOLOGY: CREATING AND SUSTAINING HIGH PERFORMANCE ORGANIZATIONS THROUGH ACCOUNTABILITY

Paul Campbell, Competitive Solutions, Inc.



Applies to: Mid-Level to Senior HR Professional

SHRM Competencies:

• Leadership & Navigation• Business Acumen• Global & Cultural E�ectiveness• Communication

This lively and interactive session addresses the basic foundations of business process/business intelligence technology that can actually improve the business bottom-line. To sustain a culture of accountability, an organization must create, document and audit business systems that support an accountability mindset. Unfortunately, many organizations fail to view accountability as a key business process. Failure to design and deploy sustained processes often results in an organization continuing to operate in a “blame” mode that is perceived by the workforce as a lack of true commitment to the culture of accountability. This session will drive technology use to better connect business units, build trust and elevate performance expectations while delivering insights to propel organizational payback from using accountability systems.

This presentation provides all who attend the knowledge and understanding to begin implementing practical, auditable techniques to their individual work environments. This sensible and business-focused combination of practices promotes employee involvement and empowerment. Most importantly, realistic techniques promote continuous improvement in communication, productivity, employee satisfaction, and bottom-line business results.


• Learn to drive business objectives down from the top-level management to the hourly employee

• Learn to establish expectations and auditing procedures to drive measurable results throughout the organization

• Learn to execute an action plan that directly impacts each echelon of the organization by holding people accountable for results within their realm of responsibility


IMMIGRATION COMPLIANCE UNDER A NEW ADMINISTRATION: RESOLVING TALENT SHORTAGES USING WORK VISAS, HANDLING AND AVOIDING GOVERNMENT AUDITS AND INVESTIGATIONS, AND I-9 COMPLIANCE

Shanon Stevenson, Partner, Fisher & Phillips

Wednesday, March 29, 2017 1:30 pm-2:30 pm



SHRM-Competencies:

• Business Acumen• Ethical Practice• Critical Evaluation• Global & Cultural E�ectiveness

Changing the immigration laws is clearly a priority of the new administration. This session will help human resources professionals to understand how to comply with changing immigration laws, including how to use work visas to resolve labor shortages. In addition, U.S. Citizenship & Immigration Services released a new Form I-9 to that took e�ect on January 21, 2017. Failure of an employer to ensure proper completion and retention of Form I-9 for applicable personnel may subject the employer to new higher civil money penalties of up to $2,156 per I-9, and, in some cases, criminal penalties. The new Form I-9 increases the administrative burden on employers, which can result in even more mistakes. 2017 is expected to be another record-breaking year in immigration enforcement and the various government agencies are getting better at sharing information to target employers for criminal penalties. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement continues to issue Form I-9 Notices of Inspection to businesses across the nation. This session will provide guidelines on how to conduct an I-9 self-audit, how to handle an I-9 Notice of Inspection and how to avoid a Department of Justice immigration discrimination investigation.


• Understanding immigration compliance challenges under a Trump administration, including obtaining work visas for positions with labor shortages

• The requirements of the new Form I-9, including the higher penalties that are now in e�ect, steps to conducting an I-9 self-audit, and how to handle an I-9 Notice of Inspection and Immigration Enforcement Subpoena from Immigration & Customs Enforcement

IS YOUR ORGANIZATION UNINTENTIONALLY SABOTAGING YOUR HIGH POTENTIAL TALENT?

Karan Ferrell Rhodes, Shockingly Di�erent Leadership




SHRM-Competencies:

• Leadership & Navigation• Business Acumen• Relationship Management• Communication

Executive leaders love to talk about inspiring high-potential leaders to create game-changing impact within the organization. Senior leaders sit on the edge of their seats – eager to witness this talented group of employees implement mind-blowing innovation, turn under-performing departments into success stories and revive departments from the brink of extinction. The inconvenient truth is that most organizations are actually sabotaging (although unintentionally) their most promising talent and driving them to look for greener pastures outside of the organization.

Based on her years of research of over 5,000 high potential leaders, Karan will provide a riveting presentation on the top forms of high potential "talent sabotage" and how to integrate small, but vital elements into your current talent rhythms in order to achieve optimal engagement, confidence, and performance from the very key talent who are the likely future leaders of your organization.


• Gain insight on the concept of "high-potential sabotage"• Understand the disconnect between development that is

commonly o�ered vs. what high potentials actually need in order to become stronger leaders

• Evaluate the benefits of adding di�erentiation training as a component of your development programs to increase employee engagement and get better data for your succession planning processes



THE FIVE LEVERS OF INFLUENCE

Heather Stagl, Enclaria, LLC


BUSINESS ACUMEN & STRATEGY ROOM 104


SHRM Competencies:

• Leadership & Navigation• Business Acumen• Relationship Management• Consultation• Communication

Influencing people to adopt new goals, processes, behaviors, and attitudes is undoubtedly a challenging endeavor. Where do you start? By applying the five levers of influence, you can increase your impact and accomplish your objectives. Anything you do to influence others will employ at least one of these levers. If your success depends on other people changing the way they work – processes, behaviors, priorities, attitudes, relationships, and, ultimately results – you must be able to e�ectively influence people to make those changes. Join this session to add the five levers of influence to your personal change toolkit.


• Understand change as the context for influence• Learn the five levers of influence• Apply the five levers of influence to your own situation

GO BEYOND THE DATA: HOW TO USE COMPELLING STORIES TO PERSUADE

Joey Asher, President, Speechworks


BUSINESS ACUMEN & STRATEGY BALLROOM A


SHRM Competencies:

• Business Acumen• Leadership & Navigation• Communication

For all the value that data can provide your listeners, it also brings a daunting challenge: how do you present complex information in a way that doesn't drag the life out of a conference room? The reality is most business presentations are painful, data-filled PowerPoint-driven exercises in madness for listeners. This highly interactive workshop o�ers participants the chance to explore problems related to relying on data alone to convey messages, how to overcome those challenges by using stories and other evidence, and how to maintain credibility in the face of challengers and skeptics. Speakers who can do this e�ectively have the ability to connect with their listeners, inspire confidence, and enhance their own credibility.


• Gain a new understanding of the best communication methods for data transmission

• Learn how to bring their data to life and illuminate it by using stories, examples and analogies

Suzannah Gill & Carl Pilger, Esq., EPIC Employee Benefits


EMPLOYMENT LAW & LEGISLATION BALLROOM B

Applies to: Entry and Mid-Level HR Professionals

SHRM Competencies:

• Business Acumen • Critical Evaluation

Once upon a time, employer-provided health insurance was simple. But today's landscape is increasingly complex and resembles an alphabet soup: ERISA, HIPAA, PPACA, GINA, MHPAEA, FMLA, ADA, FLSA, IRS, HMS, HHS, DOL. And with the IRS and DOL increasing their enforcement e�orts and raising penalties for non-compliance, it's more important than ever to review your benefits plans to ensure that you're meeting your obligations. In this presentation, we'll review key compliance regulations from the recent past reminders about your current obligations and a forecast of potential future legislation. We'll also share practical tips and best practices for e�ectively managing your benefits compliance obligations.

EMPOWERING CANDIDATES TO BE YOUR ADVOCATES

Brian Fink, Relus Technologies


TALENT ACQUISITION AND RETENTION ROOM 104


SHRM Competencies:

• Ethical Practice• Relationship Management• Global & Cultural E�ectiveness

As the labor market continues to tighten, companies are more competitive than ever to find, engage, and hire the best talent. When considering that 1 out of every 3 candidates receive an o�er, not every candidate is thrilled with the process or outcome. Review sites like Glassdoor, Indeed, and others detail the candidates’ journeys, outlining the way they were contacted, interviewers’ actions, and inappropriate questions. With recruiting taking place on Facebook, Tinder, and Snapchat, and an ever-growing Millennial managerial class, it’s more important than ever for HR to focus on creating a candidate journey that turns every candidate into an advocate.


• Analyze social engagement e�orts and rank value of employment marketing e�orts

• Describe examples of passive and aggressive social recruiting and develop a plan to implement tactics

• Statistically assess perception of recruiting reputation and weigh impact on candidate engagement

WORKSITE WELLNESS - ENSURING INTEGRATION WITH YOUR TOTAL BENEFITS STRATEGY

Mary Pozatek, CWWPC, Northwestern Benefit Corporation of Georgia


TOTAL REWARDS ROOM 105


SHRM Competencies:

• Leadership & Navigation• Business Acumen• Critical Evaluation• Communication

Worksite wellness is a critical part of any employer’s benefit strategy but it is often not fully integrated with other o�erings that are available. This results in lower-than-normal participation rates and missed opportunities for measuring the results of programming. Integrating worksite wellness programming into areas such as safety, EAP/behavior, health, disease management, or disability programming can have a large impact on employee engagement as well as positive impact to the employer's bottom line. This session will discuss opportunities for integration as well as practical steps for employers at any stage in their work site wellness journey.




• Define work site wellness• Determine areas of potential integration at their own work site• Identify one or two next steps to integrate their benefit strategy

UPPING YOUR HR GAME – LEADERSHIP PARADOXES TO GROW YOUR STRENGTHS

Laurie Genevish, The Performance Di�erence, LLC & Mike Mattingly, Marlin Business Services Corporation



Applies to: Mid-Level and Senior HR Professionals

SHRM Competencies:


As human resources continues to evolve in terms of what is demanded of it, HR sta� often receive less development than other business areas. We have conducted HR searches of internal candidates and often find we need to execute external searches because of a lack of development. We have also seen HR leaders not grow with the business su�ciently and as a result, they are replaced for the next leg of the journey. This session is intended for HR professionals who are or aspire to be senior level leaders. HR is often the most trusted advisor to senior leaders and o�ers a deeper understanding of the culture as it understands the politics across divisions with the board and within the community. It o�ers a unique perspective on the organization and deserves to be invested in just as much as other functions.


• Consider how top HR roles are evolving• Define the traits needed to be a successful senior HR leader• Analyze your strengths and gaps related to the senior HR

leader benchmark

ROI BY DESIGN

Dr. Laura Paramoure, eParamus


TALENT ACQUISTION & RETENTION BALLROOM B


SHRM Competencies:

• Business Acumen• Critical Evaluation

This session outlines an alternative to the traditional Kirkpatrick and Phillips model of learning measurement. The ROI by Design methodology, which is successfully used by companies in industries such as healthcare, pharmaceutical, financial, and oil and gas, is explored and results from its current application is provided.

This session will demonstrate how trainers can measure Return on Investment (ROI) of training through an innovative new model that connects instructional design components to behavioral changes, allows for evaluation of organizational support/readiness for learning, and results in justifiable outcomes. The process moves beyond the Kirkpatrick levels to provide practical steps in the application of measurement and evaluation. The session shows trainers how to capitalize on current best practices to create the chain of evidence starting with design. It provides the knowledge on what type of data to collect, when/how the data is collected, what you can learn from the data, and how to communicate the results. Following the model enables trainers to practice a powerful and practical way to show their stakeholders the impact of training in an organization. Several case studies showing measurement of both technical and soft skills will be provided.


• Learn how standardized steps in training design enables the ability to measure training outcomes and succeed in showing training’s impact to the learner, the job and the organization

• Observe examples of how the measurement methodology is being utilized in organizations to create accountability for results and establish learning organizations

• Witness training measurement data, including learning, behavior, and analytics currently being generated in organizations and used for decision making



TODAY'S CULTURAL INFLUENCES AND THE LAW OF HARASSMENT: MANAGING LIKE J.P. MORGAN IN A 'LIL WAYNE WORLD

Jonathan Martin, Constangy, Brooks, Smith & Prophete, LLP


EMPLOYMENT LAW & LEGISLATION ROOM 104


SHRM Competencies:


As modern “entertainment" becomes more obscene, judges and legislators are becoming more restrictive. One employee may find "The Hangover" to be hilarious; another o�ensive. Rap music stars, celebrity "housewives", “bachelors”, and others make small fortunes engaging in distasteful behavior which is glorified on television, and the ratings go up. However, business owners are expected to ensure no one is o�ended in the workplace.

Here's the workplace "reality" show: What employees listen to, watch, download, and use to entertain themselves is in your workplace whether you like to acknowledge it or not. The cost of making the wrong decision is a six-figure lawsuit. And, the long-term business cost of unmotivated and unproductive employees is even higher – potentially even bankruptcy.

Do you know what to do? Do you know how to address it? Do you know what questions are relevant, or even how to begin an investigation? Do you even know what laws can impose great penalties on your company for what your employees find entertaining? Do you know how to motivate and lead several generations of employees with di�erent viewpoints, communication methods, and values?

LEARNING OBJECTIVE:

• Understanding how modern cultural influences a�ect potential litigation

• E�ectively investigating claims of harassment• Documenting employer initiative to prevent discrimination to

preserve defenses

BRING FINANCIAL CONFIDENCE TO THE WORKPLACE

Joe Kurelic & Richard MacKelfresh, Ameriprise Financial




SHRM Competencies:

• Leadership & Navigation• Business Acumen• Relationship Management• Consultation• Communication

A financial wellness program can help employers promote financial confidence among their workers by educating and advising them on:

• Managing everyday expenses• Making the most of their company benefits• Planning for retirement

Increased productivity and higher rates of employee retention have been shown to be tied to employees' financial wellness. Companies spend their time and money to create competitive benefits packages that are often under-utilized because employees are left to interpret them on their own. Financial wellness programs work with HR departments to help reduce the burden of providing this guidance.




• Understand the e�ects of financial stress on an employee workforce and how it impacts productivity, health, and the personal and professional lives of employees

• Understand how o�ering access to a licensed financial professional can reduce the liability and administrative burden placed on HR departments to provide advice to employees during open enrollment, new hire, and onboarding as well as throughout the year

• How o�ering employees this guidance helps improve benefits package understanding, employee loyalty/retention, and gives a competitive edge while recruiting talent to your organization by promoting this piece of your benefits package

STRATEGIC TALENT DEVELOPMENT: ALIGNING FOR VALUE & IMPACT

Dr. Wendy Ruona, University of Georgia

Thursday, March 30, 2017 1:00 pm-2:00 pm



SHRM-Competencies:

• Leadership & Navigation• Business Acumen• Consultation

For over 15 years, leading experts have rallied for HR to be a strategic partner in organizations. And yet that strategic “seat at the table” continues to elude many. This session will interrogate the ideas of what constitutes strategic HR and attempt to move beyond the generalities often discussed to instead o�er a specific way that HR can contribute to implementing organizational strategy. In this session, we’ll learn that strategic HR develops a clear path between organizational strategy and its realization by proactively and constructively aligning, managing, and developing talent to achieve organizational strategy and sustainable success.


• Connect the concept of “value” to your framing of strategic HR• Describe the concept of talent segmentation (critical talent

pools) and the importance of that to the strategic HR agenda• Conceptualize how to apply one specific methodology for

aligning talent and performance with strategic needs

AVOIDING RISK WHILE USING ADVANCED SELECTION TECHNIQUES: THE CHALLENGING WORLD OF PRE-EMPLOYMENT TESTING AND BIG DATA ANALYTICS USED AS SELECTION TOOLS

Gavin Appleby, JD & Dionysia Johnson Massie, JD, Littler Mendelson, PC


EMPLOYMENT LAW & LEGISLATION BALLROOM B


SHRM Competencies:

• Business Acumen• Ethical Practice• Critical Evaluation

The EEOC and the OFCCP have become extremely focused on employers’ hiring processes. In particular, the EEOC and the OFCCP have evaluated pre-employment testing more carefully. Pre-employment tests range from personality assessments to cognitive testing and physical capacity exams. Some of these tests are homegrown, but most are purchased. Some are purchased from quality testing vendors but many are not. Further, most of the employers who use tests have limited awareness of the applicability of law to those tests, not to mention a complete lack of uncertainty as to how big data analytics will fit under the law (including the EEOC’s Uniform Guidelines on Employee Selection Procedures) when used as a selection device.

In the last couple of years, there have been multi-million dollar settlements regarding testing claims and OFCCP audits. These settlements usually are caused by adverse impact problems under Title VII or medical issues under the ADA. Most often, settlements have resulted in situations where a test has not been validated or the validation has not been properly done or does not show su�cient predictiveness. So far, there are few claims involving analytics as a selection tool, but the EEOC already has warned employers about potential concerns related to those matters.

This session will include an analysis of the legal risk, provide education regarding how to evaluate and lessen that risk, and o�er practical suggestions on how to select and use pre-employment tests and analytic-driven selection tools. We will address business strategy in connection with using and developing precautions related to pre-employment tests and analytics tools. The program also focuses on the potential return on investment through reduced turnover, better success with new hires, and the use of pre-employment tools in connection with cultural fit.



• Understand the risks and likely sources of non-compliance related to pre-employment tests and analytics tools

• Evaluate how best to choose and use such tools to limit legal risk

• Consider ways to improve the use of these tools without violating the law

• Obtain specific information as to what the EEOC, OFCCP and courts expect of employers with regard to pre-employment testing, big data analytics as used in the hiring process and selection of candidates

PUBLICIZING YOUR INVESTMENT: SUCCESSFULLY COMMUNICATING YOUR ORGANIZATION'S TOTAL INVESTMENT IN YOUR MULTIGENERATIONAL WORKFORCE

Je�rey Bloom, SHRM-SCP & Kathi McMullan, VCG Consultants




SHRM Competencies:

• Business Acumen• Communication

We will identify the ways that generations in your workforce like to receive detailed corporate communications as well as our experiences in the most e�ective ways to deliver the full impact of your organization's investment.

MAKE YOUR ENGAGEMENT LEVELS SOAHR

Lisa Ryan, Grategy




SHRM-Competencies:

• Leadership & Navigation• Relationship Management• Communication

In today’s competitive marketplace, the War for Talent is in full-force – and talent is winning. Organizations no longer have the luxury of being able to choose from a slew of qualified applicants who are chomping at the bit to work there. Because employees realize that they have the power to take their skills elsewhere if they are not getting their need for connection met, leadership teams have to figure out how to keep their top employees from leaving. Creating an authentic culture of engagement requires a real focus on building workplace connections, instead of looking at “employee engagement” as another checkbox to mark o�.

According to the Gallup organization, approximately 71% of all sta� feel unsupported, detached, or disengaged from their current employer. This trend costs US companies more than $450 billion in lost productivity each year. Although most organizations understand the importance of having an engaged workforce and have developed initiatives to address this, few management teams know how to align their culture with the needs of their employee population. Even when dealing with the reality of limited resources and tight budgets, you’ll walk out of this session with the tools you need to make your engagement levels SOAHR.


• Develop strategies to retain a high-performing workforce, using internal resources

• Assess generational di�erences in communication styles and get employees e�ectively talking to each other

• Establish an engagement strategy that supports organizational success

• Design and implement strategies for increased engagement, retention and recognition

Christopher Chase Carey & Annah Kate Gillette, Chasing Meditation




SHRM Competencies:

Work-life balance is a myth. When we are engaged in something, we need to be engaged in exactly that and only that. The challenge is to focus intensely on the matter at hand, then pull back and reset by clearing our minds and emotions (yes, emotions are just as important as thoughts) and then jump back in to focus on the next activity. Is this easy to do? No way. But it is simple. It takes practice, but more importantly, it takes discipline and a structured method. It has been proven by martial artists worldwide for centuries. We will teach you their secrets and skills. We incorporate advanced meditation training to accelerate your ability to make this quantum leap in life much more easily and much more quickly.


• Explore the disciplined actions mind warriors execute daily• Learn how mind warriors think di�erently from others• Understand how to quiet the mind and emotions by resetting

A BETTER WAY TO TAKE CARE OF BUSINESS

In an industry built on fee-for-service care, Kaiser Permanente succeeds because we’re built around prevention and the highest quality care. One Harvard Business Review article described our care as “untainted by any economic confl ict of interest.”* And an industry report by The Economist said we promote economy and quality care with “no fi nancial motive to order unnecessary procedures.”†

Choose better. Choose Kaiser Permanente.

* Lew McCreary, “Kaiser Permanente’s Innovation on the Front Lines,” Harvard Business Review, September 2010.

† ”Another American Way,” The Economist, May 1, 2010.
