Crafting an HR Strategy for Your Small Business
Every small and mid-sized business deals with human resources at some level, but many business owners or staff members (who are not HR professionals) are not properly trained to deal with handbook creation and maintenance, hiring, compliance, performance management, employee relations, terminations and other HR issues.

If you are a business owner or are responsible for handling your organization’s HR, you should readily have an answer when asked “What is your organization’s human resource strategy?” This hour long webinar is designed to help small and mid-sized organizations define that answer and help them get started in developing an HR strategy.
