Kronos
Incorporated Chief People Officer David
Almeda and Vice President of Global Talent Acquisition Kristen
Brown will be featured speakers at next week's Society for

New Orleans. Almeda and Brown's hour-long accredited session, "Make

Almeda, the driving force behind Kronos'
globally recognized and award-winning WorkInspired culture,
was recently named the 2017
Chief Human Resources Officer (CHRO) of the Year in the
Innovation category by HRO Today. Brown is responsible for
leading Kronos' global efforts to attract and hire the best
technology talent, and she has led strategic recruitment efforts
to support the company's growth to more than $1 billion in annual

Almeda is also a board
member of The Workforce Institute at Kronos, a think tank that
helps organizations drive performance by addressing human capital
management issues that affect both hourly and salaried employees.
Other Workforce Institute board members presenting at SHRM
include: Sharlyn
Lauby on Social
Solutions for HR: Social Media Strategies to Help Achieve Your HR
and Business Goals; and Dan
Schawbel on The
Top 10 Workplace Trends For 2017.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Why:
|
|
|
|
With a history of being viewed as a "soft skills," people-oriented
function, HR often takes a backseat to other departments like
finance and operations when it comes to strategic representation
in the executive boardroom. However, taking an evidence-based
approach to HR increases the function's impact, maximizes existing
resources, and boosts organizational credibility. This session
will review multiple case studies to define evidence-based HR and
describe the steps necessary to implement this approach in any
organization.

Almeda and Brown's session is eligible for 1.25 SHRM Professional
Development Credits (PDCs) and 1.25 Business Credits.
