LEHRN - Delivering Leading Edge information
LEHRN meetings are produced to educate HR professionals on the leading edge of HCM software, services, and best practices.Our presenters don’t make ‘sales presentations’ - rather LEHRN defines a strategic approach, a market perspective, and a clear value proposition be delivered to LEHRN participants. We have been doing it this way for nine years.
If “innovation” is the introduction to something new, the talent management innovations at Starkey Laboratories, a 42 year old manufacturer of hearing aid products, have sent a wave change to every corner of the company. TM innovation at Starkey includes: Talent Management Business Partners, Performance Management programs, and an A-Player recruiting process. Starkey HR has worked hard to drive innovation and deliver value -but at what cost? We are stretching the capabilities of our management team, our employees and our budget. Starkey’s TM group will share the inside story on obstacles faced and overcome and challenges to innovation still out there.
