Peoplefluent’s Julia Mendez will present a workshop “Unconscious Bias: How it Affects Decisions in the Workplace” on Thursday, May 23, 2013 at 10:00am. Oftentimes recruiters, human resources personnel and management strive to ensure that the work environment is free from discriminatory actions. However, what they often do not realize is that unconscious biases which each of us have, can impact decisions they make not only on who gets hired, but also who gets promoted, who gets mentored, who gets assigned to attend training, what performance ratings are given, and other employment decisions which could be positive or negative to an employee. Discovering how to determine what those biases are and what steps can be taken to either overcome them OR to ensure that decisions are made without taking one’s biases into account is critical to ensure disparate impact is reduced or eliminated in employment decisions. This workshop will cover the definition of discrimination, racism, colorism, stereotypes, and biases as well as how diversity and inclusion as well as tips to understand and identify unconscious biases can help foster an environment free from disparate impact and disparate treatment of employees and applicants.

Doug Ring, CTO of Peoplefluent, will present “Putting HR in the Driver’s Seat of Social Collaboration” on Tuesday, June 4, 2013 at 11:00am. New technologies, social media and shifting workforce demographics are changing how work gets done, resulting in a highly collaborative environment where group creativity powers productivity and innovation. Industry analysts predict that these trends will also impact the role of HR within the organization. Learn how HR can capitalize on today’s workforce trends to be more impactful to their organization and own social initiatives to help their organization gain intellectual control, ensure employees have access to information, strengthen internal connections and preserve company culture.
Where are your staffing needs? As the economy improves, you’ll need to know where you can fill open positions to pursue business growth – and where you can improve productivity. In this webinar, a Peoplefluent expert shares reports that can help CEOs and other leaders fully visualize talent and resources to make better workforce decisions by answering key questions that include:
• How many contractors vs. full-time employees work in a specific department?
• How many and where are the open positions in our sales department?
• What is our total spend for headcount in our department?
Using daily workforce reporting, we’ll share how leaders can quickly and easily report on headcount totals and open positions, compare employee types and view the all of the organizational layers under a specific span of control. These metrics will help companies identify staffing needs that support the strategic plan of the organization.
Do you know whether rating disparities exist along race, gender or age, which may then translate into pay and promotion disparities in a pay-for-performance organization? Among today’s top-performing organizations, the concept of pay-for-performance has become pervasive. Pay-for-performance dictates that employees who outperform their peers will receive more compensation on a short-term basis and faster career advancement on a long-term basis. However, for organizations that use ratings to identify these top performers, pay-for-performance programs have compliance risks that should be evaluated and addressed.
Attend this session to help ensure that your company can defend itself on an organization-wide basis against claims of employment discrimination arising from tainted performance ratings. All attendees will gain actionable insight to help you:
∙ Identify strategies for pay-for-performance organizations to utilize in striking a balance between workforce effectiveness and workforce compliance
∙ Tips to simultaneously encourage high performing employees while mitigating legal risks
∙ To spot and avoid potential legal liabilities before they arise
In this 60 minute webinar, you will learn how to leverage video as part of a formal performance support strategy. Ken Doyle, CEO at CannonBall Hill, will discuss just in time learning and video based performance support. If correctly applied and implemented, enterprise video based performance support holds tremendous value for organizations as well as stakeholders. Additionally, attendees will be taught how to provide just in time learning at crucial points-of- need. The webinar will include examples of key requirements for success in implementing enterprise video based performance support online.

Evaluating and controlling the cost of workforce decisions is a critical need for organizations who want to know they’re aligning talent investments with business goals. In this webinar, a Peoplefluent expert shows how boardroom-ready analytics can answer three top-of-mind workforce cost questions for today’s CEO:
• How much are we spending on our contingent workforce?
• How are we performing since the reorganization?
• What will it cost to reach our strategic goals?
We’ll share how InSight, the SaaS solution for workforce planning, visually delivers analytics that allow executives to compare specific groups to the organization’s business benchmarks and see the cost impact of workforce planning decisions.
It seems that everyone these days is saying that business is now “social.” The rise of social media and other communication technology is changing how we do business. These same technologies are changing the nature of
work and how the workplace must be designed. The truth is, business has always been social, and so has work. Technology has simply unleashed the power of social in new and powerful ways.
This evolution has revealed that our traditional models for cultivating talent are insufficient. The new equation for talent isn’t just about building human capital (the knowledge, skills and abilities) of the workforce. It must also include social capital (the value that exists within relationships) to unlock your organization’s capability for innovation and performance. Join Jason Lauritsen, CEO of Talent Anarchy and author of Social Gravity: Harnessing the Natural Laws of Relationships to learn about the new talent equation and how Human Resources next evolution is to become the social architect of the organization.
How accessible is your workforce data? Organizations that want to grow and develop their workforces need buy-in from multiple stakeholders and the ability to socialize workforce data in a variety of formats. In this webinar, a Peoplefluent expert will share how the data available in OrgPublisher can be presented in ways that answer questions like:
• How can you print an accurate enterprise wide org chart?
• How can you share my org chart with others?
• How can you provide my leaders with mobile access to an accurate view of talent and workforce?
Using daily workforce reporting and export options, we’ll share how executives can conveniently prepare organization-wide information in visual reports and share talent metrics with mobile leaders to prepare for talent review meetings and strategic planning. View both individual profiles and enterprise-wide talent trends to visualize workforce planning and share business-critical information in an engaging way.
