What CEOs Need From HR Today

A “LIVE” Leadership talk with Steve Lowisz, CEO of Qualigence International and Jason Lioy, Chief People Officer at Dawn Foods Global.
In this energizing live session, attendees will learn:
- The key reasons why HR has struggled to earn credibility and influence with the C-suite.
- Why HR should understand how to run every aspect of a business before learning the ins and outs of HR.
- The golden opportunity HR has at present to solve critical business challenges.
- How HR can shift from feel-good programs to HR solutions that align with business strategy.
Jason's Key Takeaways:
1. Know the business, know the people, and never let your leader get surprised. Clear the way and enable the business to run smoothly.
2. HR needs to provide levers and enhance leadership roles and their effectiveness, which will enable their workforce to deliver results with a profitable performance.
3. As an HR leader, identify 4-5 business aligned priorities you and your organization can do really well that will impact and produce positive change in the organization.
4. Embed in the organization that all leaders should have an HR mentality. As people leaders, they take care of people and develop trusting relationships with team members that will maintain and increase retention rates.”
5. HR should establish more than a competitive wage. Nurture team members with support mechanisms, development, total reward programs, health and wellbeing programs, and a hybrid work modality to increase their engagement and sense of belonging.
