HRMA and ASTD Networking Event Sep 19, 2012
Will the Real Culture Please Stand Up!
The Southwest Florida Chapters of HRMA and ASTD are joining forces once again for an evening of networking and learning. The topic for this event is “Will the Real Culture Please Stand Up?” being presented by Christine Davlin and Ken Bodenhamer of ASTD.
Every company has a culture, whether it is intentional or not. Therefore, culture can be an asset or a liability. Before you can manifest the environment you wish to achieve, EVERYONE needs to clearly understand your core values that define the company’s culture.
This is easier said than done. HR and Training Professionals must work with senior management to clearly identify the desired culture, be honest enough to share what the existing culture is, be ready to discuss what changes are needed to achieve the desired culture, and learn how to nurture company culture over time. So, the question is, what message is your culture sending to others?
Join us for this event to learn some answers, raise some questions, and have some open discussions. Networking and cocktails are from 5-6 pm and the program is from 6-7 pm.
