Webinar:
10 Things You Need to Know About HR to Successfully and Legally Grow
Your Business
PRESENTED BY:
Annette Reyes
The HR Diversity Group
Small business HR is the art of strategically leveraging limited human assets to achieve the best possible results. Properly executed HR initiatives can help small business owners achieve success by helping them tap into the full potential of their most valuable resources.
As the late author Sir Ken Robinson said, "Human resources are like natural resources; they're often buried deep. You have to go looking for them, they're not just lying around on the surface. You have to create the circumstances where they show themselves."
Unleash the full potential of your human resources with the tips and tools that will be provided during this session.
While thinking of signing up for this powerful and insightful session, we might dare to ask:
Why is HR important for small businesses?
To put it in the simplest possible terms: HR is important for small businesses because it sets up your employees, and therefore your company as a whole, for success. HR is the force that drives the processes, workflows, policies, and expectations that determine how people do their work and how people enjoy doing work at your company resulting in strategic business growth and success.
