July 14: Retention Best Practices to Keep Your Workforce Engaged

Your best defense for keeping your employees is creating an engaging environment that they are happy to be part of. This session covers ways that HR and Management can have a positive impact on retention without busting the budget.
August 11: Creating and Implementing Inclusive Policies
As legislation, our employees needs/wants, and our customers change -- our policies must keep up, but actually updating our policies is a mundane task that often gets pushed to the side while your HR team focuses on more immediate demands. This session shows you a few simple steps to assess your existing policies for inclusivity and how you can update them to reflect the current work environment.
September 8: Compensation & Benefits
A lot of us have found that an hourly rate or salary is not the only resource to convince an employee to join our team. This session facilitates discussion on some creative ways to offer benefits to your employees that make a difference.
