Strategic Marketing Skills for HR Professionals 

There are so many topics on employee engagement, career development for employees, succession planning; but what about our OWN HR career?

What we hear the most is:

“I focused so hard on being a top contributor:”

• I didn’t put in the time to get known inside or outside the organization nor did our executive management team notice me. AND
• I failed to build the essential strategic relationships that could help me transition to employment quickly once I lost my job.

Attendees of this presentation can expect to walk away with the strategic marketing skills essential for one’s own HR career both internal and external to the organization.  HR Professionals-in-transition can expect to learn strategic marketing skills that can significantly shorten their transition time.

• Develop a strategic plan for one’s own HR career
