^{Getting the Agility Edge: 5 Methods for Developing Your Staff (And Your Own) HR Competencies}                    

Agility involves more than just knowing about HR - it includes the ability to effectively adapt knowledge to respond to constant change. Competencies are the key to this agility. HR managers are often aware of the competencies they need for a great HR function but not sure how to best use available - often limited - resources to grow their reports and themselves. Unlocking the mystery of development is critical for current and future HR leaders.  This session will provide HR current and future managers with strategies, tools and tips for building competencies to create an agile HR function.
