Five Trends Shaping The Future Of Work

Much has been said about the need for HR to play an integral role in the strategic leadership of their organization with the executive team.  This need is no longer an option in any organization.  The emerging Human Resources trends will now dominate the competitive success of every organization.  In this session, leading authority and international best-selling author, Dr. Bob Nelson will share his research and insights on the emerging workforce trends as described in his upcoming (March 2012) book 1501 Ways to Reward Employees (the new edition of 1001 Ways to Reward Employees that sold 1.6 million copies).  The trends that will be presented are:

  1. The Pending Shortage of Skilled Workers
  2. The Rise of the Millennial Generation
  3. The Expansion of Contingent Workers
  4. The Evolving Role of Virtual Employees
  5. The Globalization of the Labor Market

Dr. Bob will present current research and data about the above trends and specifically address what HR professionals need to do to help create a sense of urgency in leading their executive team to proactively address these issues before they become problems for the organization and its ability to compete.  Attendees will leave with a broader perspective on the leading labor trends impacting human resources and practical strategies for addressing those trends in their workplace.
