HR’s Greatest Challenge: 5 Business-Driven Actions to Improve Recruitment, Engagement and Retention

Dick Finnegan, CEO, C-Suite Analytics

The solution is simple. Manage both like business issues instead of HR issues and see immediate improvement.

This session highlights Finnegan’s new book, HR’s Greatest Challenge, which follows The Power of Stay Interviews, which is the top-selling book in SHRM history. Participants will take home the answer to the question: “Now that we’ve hired them, how do we keep them and increase their productivity?”
