SUMMARY:Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) – Atlanta: Virtual Workshop: Future-Ready\, Strategic Problem Solving
DESCRIPTION:The Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) – Atlanta is hosting a Virtual Workshop: Future-Ready\, Strategic Problem Solving on Thursday\, August 13th\, from 12:00 PM to 1:30 PM. \nDisruption isn’t an occasional event anymore; it’s the new operating context. Leaders are making decisions amid constant uncertainty\, urgent competing priorities\, and shifting constraints. Today’s disruptive business environment drives a reflex to jump to solutions when challenges arise\, often addressing symptoms rather than root causes and leading teams to work hard on the wrong problems. Pragmatic Prospection—the ability to envision a future that does not yet exist and plan for it—is a critical leadership skill for strategic thinking and navigating complexity in this disruptive era. This workshop introduces a practical\, two-phase approach to applying prospection to real business challenges. Participants will practice the method\, assess their current prospection capabilities\, and identify strengths and opportunities. They will leave with a clear\, actionable framework to slow down\, learn from the past and present\, and make more deliberate\, future-oriented decisions—enabling stronger strategic planning and more sustainable outcomes. \nClick here to learn more and register.

SUMMARY:Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM): The Power of One: How a Single Database Unlocks Full-Solution Automation
DESCRIPTION:The Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) is hosting The Power of One: How a Single Database Unlocks Full-Solution Automation on Wednesday\, August 12th\, starting at 2:00 PM. \nSpending 45% less time on HR tasks? And 80% less time on compliance work? A Forrester Consulting TEI study found that a composite organization representative of interviewed Paycom clients experienced these results. The secret? A single-database software with full-solution automation built in. In the study\, the composite organization achieved a 362% projected ROI by using tech that doesn’t rely on multiple\, disjointed systems. Yet employers use an average of more than six HCM providers\, according to a separate commissioned study conducted by Forrester Consulting on behalf of Paycom. Through HCM software built on one true database\, organizations can accelerate access to key reporting data\, eliminate inconsistency and simplify life for HR professionals\, managers and employees companywide. \nClick here to learn more and register.

SUMMARY:REMI:  Made in America Again: Modeling the Economic Impacts of Manufacturing Reshoring
DESCRIPTION:REMI is hosting Made in America Again: Modeling the Economic Impacts of Manufacturing Reshoring on Wednesday\, August 12th\, from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM. \nReshoring manufacturing to the United States has become a major focus for policymakers\, businesses\, and economic development leaders in recent years. Shifting production back to the U.S. has the potential to strengthen domestic supply chains and national security\, create jobs\, increase long-term export capacity\, foster technological growth\, increase regional output\, and support long-term industrial competitiveness. At the same time\, reshoring can also affect labor markets\, production costs\, prices\, infrastructure needs\, and demand across related industries. In this webinar\, REMI will examine the economic impacts of reshoring manufacturing to the United States. Using dynamic economic modeling\, we will explore how increased domestic manufacturing activity can influence employment\, GDP\, output\, wages\, population\, industry growth\, and regional competitiveness. The presentation will also consider broader policy questions\, including workforce availability\, supply chain resilience\, capital investment\, and the tradeoffs between higher domestic production costs and reduced dependence on overseas suppliers. \nClick here to learn more and register.
