How HR colleagues can best support and influence management and communications in potential crisis management situations Kindly Sponsored by Farrer & Co Kathleen Heycock, Partner and Robert Lewis, Associate, Farrer & Co
Case study on how HR colleagues can best support and influence management and communications in potential crisis management situations. This session dives straight in with a composite case study based on real employee relations cases involving incidents between students, staff and visitors to the university on which Farrers have advised. Delegates will be put into a group representing either HR, Management or Communications and will be asked to react and advise as the case study develops and additional HR, regulatory and other internal and external complicating factors are introduced. At strategic points, Farrers will call “Time Out” to analyse the decision-making process and what risks and options are available. This is one of our most popular and hands-on training sessions giving HR professionals an insight into the wider organisational priorities in fast moving, potentially high profile, staff incidents. |
