Coming up on the HR Happy Hour Show
Monday, August 24, 2009 at 11:35AM
We have a pretty full and I think exciting schedule of shows coming up on the HR Happy Hour the next few months.
Here is what Shauna and I have planned: (Times and Guests subject to change):
Episode 8 - 'HR and Sports' - August 28, 2009 - 8PM EDT
What are the connections between Sports and HR and Talent Management? Is managing superstar employees at all like managing superstar athletes? What can coaching Little League baseball tell you about management? Are my beloved Jets going to get the Super Bowl? Shauna and I will talk about these topics and who knows what else with scheduled guests Tracy Tran, Todd Kmiec, Lance Haun and Kris Dunn.
Episode 9 - 'HR and Small Business' - September 11, 2009 - 8PM EDT
Small businesses and small HR departments have lots of challenges. Lack of resources, budget, time, and access to information can all put small businesses at a disadvantage. What are some strategies that small business and small HR departments can use to try and level the playing field with their larger, and usually better equipped competition? Set to join Shauna and I are Charee Klimek and Franny Oxford.
Episode 10 - 'The Job Seekers Show' - September 18, 2009 - 8PM EDT
We know unemployment is almost 10% in the US, and much higher than that in many especially hard-hit states. This show is all about giving some practical, simple advice and strategies for the job-seeker, facing the worst economic climate in generations. Folks that are actively searching are encouraged to call in with their questions. Scheduled to join us and share their expertise are Jennifer McClure, Paul DeBettignies, Deirdre Honner, and Robin Eads.
Episode 11 - 'Talent and Technology' - September 25, 2009 - 6PM EDT
This should be a really fun show coming to you live from the offices of Halogen Software, a leading HR Technology vendor in the Talent Management Technology space. Shauna and I will welcome some great folks from Halogen to talk about these technologies, the benefits that can be gained from the use of these tools, and some of the critical success factors necessary for organizations that embark on these projects. Halogen has been a great support of my HR Tech class, and the HR blogging and social media community and I am really pleased to take the show to their headquarters.
Episode 12 - 'The Work/Life Show' - October 9, 2009 - 8PM EDT
The Work/Life balance debate really heated up this summer after the Jack Welch speech at the SHRM national convention. Is there really such a thing as Work/Life balance? Do employees have a right to expect flexibility or Alternative Work Strategies? Should companies toss out schedules altogether and move to a Results Only Work Environment (ROWE)? Shauna and I will welcome Leanne Chase and Chris Ferdinandi to figure it all out.
Episode 13 - 'HR Horror Stories' - October 23, 2009 - 8PM EDT
Shauna had a great idea for a 'Horror Stories' show to fit the Halloween season. This show will be all about taking your calls with the scariest, craziest, and most frightening HR stories that you can share. Employee forgot to wear pants to work? Illegal escort service being run out of the stockroom? Anyone pull a George Costanza with the office cleaning lady? Here's your chance to share with the world.
That's it for now, as always the archives for past shows can be found at my Blog Talk Radio page.
