Each workshop will include:

  • Presentation of a relevant HR/OD topic, including definitions, terms, and possibly a case study
  • Break for networking and light snacks
  • Interactive breakout sessions that focus on participant questions, concerns, sharing of ideas and/or collecting best practices
  • Handouts of relevant articles, resources and information that will support participants to return to their workplace with practical solutions to their challenges at work
