Events in 2009
Open Workshop Programme
All our workshops are fully participative with a focus on developing practical skills. For 2009 we are scheduling a small number of open workshops addressing key strategic issues around 21st century HR practices. The following are one day workshops which we will be running in Central London. We are currently finalising dates and will be posting them here shortly. In the meantime, please contact us for further information.
If Central London is inconvenient for you, we can run workshops in-house - contact us for details.
Attracting and recruiting the 21st Century workforce
Offering more flexible working arrangements can enhance your organisation's reputation as an employer of choice, and attract a wider range of potential talent. This highly interactive workshop equips recruiters with the skills to develop attraction and recruitment strategies linked to organisational flexible working and equality policies.
We received excellent feedback when we ran this workshop as part of the Working Families masterclass series in 2008:
"It made me think more about how we do what we do. Overall very enlightening and thought provoking." Participant from Birmingham City Council.
"Definitely useful for recruitment professonals and HR." Participant, Credit Suisse.

Cultivating wellbeing, balance and resilience
Leading a satisfying life means mastering the dynamic art of maintaining personal balance. This juggling act requires an ability to control the various demands on our time and energy by manging stress levels and developing resilience so that we can manage constant change. Our unique workshop provides participants with the tools to increase psychological resilience, counter the negative effects of stress and manage a personally satisfying work-life balance.

Your sustainable working programme has been accepted by workers in teh UK and you are rolling it out across your European operations. What do you need to consider in order to make it a success?

Redesigning work for flexibility
Traditional working patterns are increasingly inappropriate in a global 24 hour networked economy. This workshop combines work redesign principles from established business practice with emergent thinking from the new paradigm of positive psychology and the Families and Work Institute (NY) model of organisational development. The result is a new way of thinking about how organisations and jobs can be redesigned for the 21st century.

Rethinking HR for the 21st century
What does an HR Director or Business Partner need to know about 21st century workforce issues in order to make a strategic contribution? What are the external trends and issues impacting on internal talent attraction and retention strategies? How can organisations harness the power of positive psychology to manage change more effectively? This workshop begins by providing an overview of the factors remodelling the 21st century HR landscape. The following highly interactive sessions will enable participants to review and revise HR strategies for their business.
