"MAKING YOUR CASE"
The fine art of persuading the C-Level
|
Charlie Huddleston is our guest speaker. |
The fine art of persuading the C-Level
Training VP’s, Directors, Managers, Developers, Facilitators and other HRD professionals often have to “sell” or “persuade” others about the value and efficacy of their programs. The fact is that we must often prove our case conceptually before we ever get a chance to prove our case in reality. To do this convincingly the HRD practitioner must do 3 things well . . . speak persuasively, write persuasively and back up your business case with the right numbers (metrics). Chapter members will learn and practice how to ‘begin with the end in mind’ to successfully persuade others to become active supporters of the knowledge, skill and ability changes you can deliver. Please join us for the June 10, 2008 Meeting at 7:30 AM at Ottawa University.

"KC ASTD was a great way for me to gain exposure to the training field across industries. The wide range of companies represented at monthly meetings guarantees that new perspectives will always be offered. On a more personal note - the relationships I developed through KC ASTD has created new opportunities for me and helped me to explore my career options - My recent hire date at Cerner being the most recent example of this. I would recommend this organization to any individual eager to grow professionally and expand their knowledge base." - Mary Beth Russell
