About BOLD Roundtables

In 2008, BOLD began a Roundtable pilot program in SSF to see if members were interested in discussing their experience with each other in the areas of HR, Organization Development, and Talent Management.  Participants found these informal discussions to be helpful, relevant and pragmatic.  Besides providing another great networking opportunity with HR/OD colleagues, members discovered the groups were small and informal enough that they could ask questions relevant to their work situation as well as their individual career needs.

If you prefer to network in a smaller group, don't want to travel far to see colleagues, or want to learn about current trends and practices in HR and L&D, attend these quarterly Roundtable Groups.

Clarifying Employee Engagement: Helping People Go the Extra Mile

• What are the attributes of an engaged employee?
• What measurements, internal or other, can we use to assess the status of our workforce?
• How can you align your employees with the goals of the company?
• What organizational development or human resources tools can be used in the implementation of employee programs?

Engagement, what do you mean by engagement?  As human resources professionals we struggle to ensure our employees are focused on the right work at the right time, achieving the strategic and financial priorities of the company. This is easier said than done.
