Do you know how powerful employment branding can be?

Employment branding tells the tale of your existing culture to existing and new employees- it depicts the essence of your internal brand to attract top performers and gives a true testament of what is important to your company. Learn how we’ve helped other companies bring their stories to life through innovative tactics and powerful creative messaging.

We would like to extend you an invitation to attend the July 2008 Kenexa Assessment Symposium to be held in Dallas, Texas. This symposium will provide an opportunity for you to participate in several informative assessment-related presentations including research and business perspectives. You can also participate in networking opportunities with HR leaders from other organizations regarding best practices and critical issues.

Survey research has solidified its position as a critical strategic tool for effective information flows, enabling higher levels of organizational performance and helping to determine the organization’s strategic directions. Jeffrey Saltzman and Jeffrey Jolton, two long-term practitioners in the area of survey research, will describe the future potential of and emerging trends that organizational change/development efforts utilizing survey research can take. Both process and content areas of the survey as a tool for organizational improvement and effectiveness will be discussed. Additional topic areas include the utilization of linkage work and organizational experiences to build and drive high performance cultures, defining the employee brand, creating the employee experience and new methods of predicting organizational outcomes.

With health care costs rising and employers increasingly shouldering the burden, many organizations have looked to lower health care costs through wellness programs, and others have gone a step further by rewarding physicians for effective treatment of mental health issues. In this webinar, we explore the current state of work stress, areas of employer liability, and what organizations can do internally to reduce employee work stress, moving the discussion beyond wellness plans to job, role, and culture change.

Utilizing the Kenexa Research Institute’s WorkTrends international database, we find that 12% to 38% of employees in the study countries report unreasonable amounts of work stress. The drivers of work stress include the employee’s immediate job tasks and work-life balance, lack of a career path, closed communication channels, unsafe working conditions, untrustworthy leadership, and insufficient managerial skills. The webinar reviews the data and recommends organizational interventions to promote employee health, productivity and attrition.
