    HR and the Innovation Equation

    ILR SchoolProducts don’t innovate, people do. This statement underpins the key role HR playsundefinedor should playundefinedin cultivating a consistent, replicable method for driving innovation in organizations. But, the focus on people doesn’t just mean recruitment and retention. For HR, it also means helping to create and promote a culture of innovation, one that values and rewards risk takingundefinedas well as failure. 



    To begin exploring these issues, fourteen HR executives from nine CAHRS partner companies including Cisco, Google, Microsoft, Comcast Cable, Aetna, Qualcomm, Symantec, Electronic Arts, and Amgen focused on a few major areas: talent’s role in driving innovation, how culture and internal capabilities can support innovation, and the role of external sources in developing internal innovation. 

    Our Executive Leadership certificate program has course material on innovation that plays in with the findings of this group and may be just what you need if innovation is lacking in your organization or personal repertoire.

    Explore the first two areas of discussion talent and culture’s role in innovation, by visiting ILR Online.


    Spotlight on: Strategic HR

    Spotlight ProgramThe development and execution of a human resources strategy that is aligned with organizational goals and matched to an organization's competencies delivers tangible outcomes for an organization's people, customers, and shareholders. Such a strategy is based on transforming HR from a "business partner" to a "business leader" which requires in-depth knowledge of advanced and emerging HR topics.

    As a leader, HR plays a significant role, not only in human-capital development, but in how human capital can contribute to the execution of organizational and business strategies. The Strategic HR Practices Certificate program from Cornell University's ILR School develops the leadership competencies required make this transformation.

    This certificate series is designed for manager- and director-level HR professionals charged with improving HR's ability to contribute to organizational strategy and success. It is also appropriate for HR professionals seeking the advanced HR skills required for advancement to management and leadership positions.

    Employee engagement is a vital driver of an organization's bottom-line results and critical outcomes—including absenteeism, turnover, customer satisfaction, and operational and financial performance. A weak economy, internal stressors, industry- and market-based changes, as well as a wide variety of management struggles all play an exacerbating role in preventing employees from being focused and engaged. But whether you're a company executive, senior manager, HR professional, supervisor or team leader, the responsibility for keeping employees engaged often falls to you.

    This informative webinar will reveal several practical techniques for keeping employees engaged and productive during turbulent times. Based on extensive research and illustrated using real-world examples, Samuel Bacharach of Cornell University's world-renowned Industrial & Labor Relations School will give you practical ideas and strategies you can use to plan and execute an effective employee engagement strategy.


    We hope you can join us for this educational event.
