In brief:
In an environment where change is the only constant, it is crucial that businesses are designed to respond and accommodate change. And as businesses are under increasing pressure to gain – and maintain – a competitive edge, reorganisations are now more commonplace than ever before. Yet businesses are often not fully equipped to plan, prepare and manage restructurings and reorganisations, potential redundancies, mergers and business transfers.
The legal framework surrounding organisational restructures is tricky and particularly difficult for the HR professional new to workforce restructuring projects to navigate. Information and Consultation, business transfer legislation and redundancy management are but a few of the areas that HR need to understand in order to maintain effective employee relations and avoid tribunal claims following mismanagement of procedures and related legislation.
As well as the legal aspects involved in restructures, it is just as important for HR to understand and be able to implement the critical non-legal aspects of restructurings. Reorganisations are one of the biggest changes a business, and its workforce, can undergo. Dealing with staff morale, motivation, productivity and communication of change initiatives is just as important as legal compliance –effective management of change has shown to affect both the short-term and long-term performance of the business post-restructure. HR professionals must develop the skills and knowledge to successfully manage reorganisations and deal with the associated legal and people challenges.
This new, unique seminar provides the opportunity to access the skill sets you require to lead your business to success. And with flexible booking options you can choose which development area you need – attend day one to understand the legal framework and come along on day two to grasp best practice change management tools and strategies. And if you want to equip yourself with the skills and knowledge to successfully handle both the legal and people issues do come along to both days.
