Drive change, fight attrition and develop effective strategies for staff development within your HR shared service or outsourcing operation.

SSON’s newly re-launched European HR Directors’ Summit is designed to provide a hands on, interactive forum in which to address your HR Shared Services & Outsourcing Challenges. Key issues of Attrition and Retention, Change Management, Effective HR Governance Models and Talent Management will all be addressed by leaders within the field. Taking that next step on your journey of continuous improvement and greater efficiency can be achieved with the knowledge provided by our panel of industry experts.

The new format will allow you to engage in a free and open exchange of ideas and strategies away from microphones and endless sales pitches. The new networking driven format is built around interactive streamed sessions which give you the unique opportunity to discuss HR issues in greater depth. Each session will be facilitated by recognised HR leaders and are designed to encourage knowledge sharing and best practice which really adds value to your organisation. These sessions will be the perfect opportunity to answer those taboo questions you normally save for the coffee break. Events in which we have launched the new format have received excellent feedback including:

No slides, no junk, just frank in-depth discussions

So if you want to acquire the knowledge to drive your HR operation to the next level then make sure you attend the European HR Directors’ Summit 2011.

Develop effective strategies for fighting attrition and improving retention

  • Re-assess your sourcing model – what works best at your current level of maturity?
  • Evaluate centralising HR functions and automating processes
  • Maintain internal buy in – Are you effectively managing internal communication?
  • Improve your staff development plan by effectively managing talent

So how does it work?

1. Streamed Interactive Sessions: strictly off the record, frank and free discussion. Each session will be facilitated by two HR leaders who will help guide the discussion. These sessions are the ideal opportunity for you to ask the questions you really want the answers to and get detailed, in depth answers without a power point in sight!

2. Speed Networking: Opportunities for you to meet and establish lasting relationships with peers and industry professionals. These sessions are short and to the point so that you can increase your network of contacts quickly and efficiently.

3. Leading Industry Case Studies Abstract presentations that discuss theoretical improvements can be useful but nothing compares to a case study which really highlights the highs and lows of the Shared Services and Outsourcing journey. These sessions will provide you with practical take-home lessons and will allow you to benchmark your own operation against the leaders within the industry.

All this makes the European HR Directors’ Summit an unmissable opportunity to drive your HR operation to the next level.
