SUMMARY:Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM): SHRM HR-X LIVE!
DESCRIPTION:The Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) is hosting SHRM HR-X LIVE! starting Sunday\, June 27th through Wednesday\, June 30th\, at the McCormick Place. \nSHRM studied more than 1\,250 organizations over five years and found the best HR teams are strong in four areas. We call these the dimensions of HR maturity\, and they matter: the more mature an HR team\, the more it drives the business. In one industry we studied\, each step up in maturity was linked to $62\,000 more revenue per employee. Yet nearly 90% of organizations are still at average or below. HR-X Live! is built around each of those dimensions. You’ll go deep in one\, explore all four\, and leave with a credential that proves your expertise. Explore electives across every HR dimension. Swap ideas with people who do what you do. Enjoy the HR community moments SHRM events are known for. You go home with new skills\, an HR-X credential\, and a playbook you can put into action. \nClick here to learn more and register. \n
