    Onboarding a new employee begins when they say ‘yes” – and is much more than paperwork!  This session will explore ways to maximize the opportunity to help your new employees settle in to their new roles and provide some unique ways to engage them in their new organization. In this session, you'll learn how to: identify the opportunities for engagement prior to start; identify the 3 types of learning a new employee needs to have (technical, cultural, & political); and identify the critical role of the leader in this process and how to engage them with their new hire.

    Please join us Tuesday, June 27th for our next quarterly book club!  This quarter's selection is "The Infinite Game" by Simon Sinek.  Our new location is Afterword Tavern & Shelves where books, beverages and small bites come together!  The premise of the book is: "We can’t choose the game. We can’t choose the rules. We can only choose how we play." In his book, Simon explores how understanding the rules of the Infinite Game is essential if any leader wants to stay ahead and outlast any competitor." We look forward to seeing you then. 

    RSVP is required.

    Today, many companies struggle to fill job vacancies using traditional methods. (Job Fairs, Employment Search Engines, etc.) According to a recent survey conducted by Employ Inc. 88% of HR decision makers believe hiring in 2023 will be more or as difficult as 2022.

    Also, 60% of these same decision makers indicate the need to make more hires in 2023. Of course, the challenge lies with extremely low unemployment rates which leave traditional applicant pools unable to fill existing employer demand for new workers. Given the current landscape, HR departments must be adaptable, creative, and efficient to separate themselves from the competition.


    Panelists include: Vee Butler - Missouri Vocational Rehabilitation; Charity Deutch - KCVA Medical Center; Arthur Diaz - U.S. Probation & Pretrial Services; and Kathleen Kennedy - Journey To a New Life. 


    In this session presented by the Kansas City V.A. Medical Center, Missouri Vocational Rehabilitation and U.S. Probation & Pretrial Services you will learn: 

    • Where to find alternative sources of job seekers
    • The range of skill sets possessed by these job seekers
    • How to effectively engage local organizations (non-staffing agencies) that assist with recruiting and retention efforts of these individuals

    Agenda:

    • 11:15 - 11:30 am - Registration & Networking
    • 11:30 am - Noon - Buffet Lunch
    • Noon - 1:00 pm - Program


    This program has been approved for 1.0 hour of SHRM recertification credit. HCRI credit pending.
