Effectively Managing Internal Transitions
It is critical for organizations to identify and retain talent. As the economy recovers, two things will happen. Growth will place demands on the lean structures that have been in place to weather the recession, and new positions will be created and filled to meet these business demands. Research also indicates that as the recession wanes, turnover will rise once again as employees move on to pursue new opportunities. Succession bottlenecks will open up, and opportunities for emerging leaders will present themselves. The result of both of these is, inevitably, that more and more leaders will find themselves in new roles and facing new challenges. Getting people up-to-speed and delivering results fast will, once again, be a salient need. Surveys suggest, however, that 25% of leaders moving into a new role will fail. What can you do to beat the odds and help your organization successfully meet its business objectives? Join us to hear new research from RHR International that identifies Six Key Success Factors for effectively managing internal leadership transitions
Based on in-depth interviewswith over 150 senior leaders from around the world, we will pinpoint techniques for improving the success rate of those moving up the corporate ladder and present a compelling case as to why organizations should re-think the way they manage internal moves.
Reducing the Risk of Global Trade
Export control agencies are intensifying their focus on pump OEMS specifically regarding export controls and international trade compliance. YOUR PUMP INDUSTRY BUSINESS COULD BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED. This is a highly informative, "tell-it-like-it-is" session. Presented by acclaimed international trade authority, Eric McClafferty, you'll come away with the most current intelligence on international trade compliance, and a clear understanding of the issues that most frequently adversely affect global trade. You'll learn how to evade the hidden "traps" you may encounter when exporting pumps, how to avoid costly mistakes and penalties, and how to prevent setbacks with "non-core" exports. Very specifically, you'll learn how HI's ITTF can help you advance your global pump business. You'll also preview compliance changes that are looming on the horizon, so you can determine the steps you can take NOW to prepare for the future.
