7 signs your HR brand needs an update.

by Pamela J. Green, SPHR, PCC, ICC

If you’re in HR, your brand can take a real hit at times, leaving you feeling as if you have a kick me sign on your back. Your HR brand is the emotional promise of a professional experience people have as a result of interacting with you. It’s what makes your skillset desirable and directly linked to your brand’s marketability. Outdated brands often get trampled and overlooked which can lead to you feeling discounted in credibility, reputation, value and opportunity.

An outdated brand hurts your market value in the following ways:

  • Gives the impression that your knowledge and skills are no longer relevant.
  • Sends the message that you are stuck in your ways and unable or unwilling to learn new and innovative things.
  • Holds the company hostage to obsolete approaches and sets them behind the competition.
  • You offer diminishing returns often reflected in your performance reviews and your paycheck.
  • Makes you less competitive in the marketplace.

Some might believe that attending conferences and events is a way to maintain an updated brand, but in reality, if you do nothing with your conference experience you might as well have never attended in the first place. Let us help you boost your 2018 California HR Conference experience by working with a professional coach on site!

If you’re unsure if you’re walking around with a “kick me” sign or in other words, if your HR brand is outdated, see if any of these are applicable:

1. You’re seldom tapped for new projects or assignments even when they are related to your job.

This relates to more than what you know. It’s a reflection of how well you get along with others. The sand in the corporate sandbox is not for throwing; it’s for building and organizational teams need people willing to work together. If you have poor interpersonal skills and can’t get along with others, no one will care how much you know and leave your personal brand on the shelf to collect dust.

2. You’ve not attended a career enhancing development opportunity in more than a year.

Some jobs appear to need less talent development than others, but if you rely on your organization to dictate your development, you could easily wind up with an outdated brand. Your professional expiration date extends every time you take the initiative to learn something new and apply what you’ve learned. Be resourceful and look for opportunities to take responsibility for the development of your brand.

3. You have not obtained or maintained career related certifications.

HR certifications require you to obtain continuing education credits to keep that certification, which is why some organizations prefer their employees to be certified. If the organization holds its HR employees accountable for new learnings, a certified HR professional keeps the organization’s brand, needs and priorities relevant and updated.   

4. Co-workers and leaders rarely come to you for insight on job-related innovation.

Personal brands that are in-the-know are repeatedly tapped for what they know, especially when it come to cutting-edge industry developments. Get in the habit of identifying the technical knowledge needed to stay current in your job while also keeping up with the absolute latest in relevant technology. Sharing these new insights labels you as an in-the-know personal brand, and someone others can rely on to expand their own understanding of industry relevant innovations.

5. You don’t know if your brand is aligned with the organization’s brand, needs or priorities.

Alignment is pivotal for growth to occur as it helps you establish a brand that can successfully adapt to organizational changes. If you are unwilling to take initiative to learn everything you can about the organization and how your personal brand can make a signification contribution, you could find your brand taking a back seat to other personal brands in the organization. The aligned personal brand knows what is needed to keep up with changing organizational priorities and increases the likelihood the organization will ensure they obtain the training and development needed to remain relevant.

6. You’ve not had a career change (including promotion or lateral moves) in more than 5 years.

A progressive career is one where you’ve been able to demonstrate promotability and usability by an organization. Those looking for growth opportunities outside need to first start internally. This show’s prospective employers that if your current employer found your talent valuable and useful enough for promotion, you must be worth their investment which, by the way, can amount to more than a 20% increase in salary.

7. Your personal appearance belongs to an age gone by.

In reality most of the world is made up of visual learners, some 65% of us in fact. We take in a lot of information visually every day. In addition we are trained by media and social interactions to care about our appearance and it is often reflected in our own personal appearance. In short, what an outdated or unkempt personal appearance says is “I don’t care what you think of how I look.” If you don’t care how you look, the organization is going to limit your exposure and opportunity to represent them more broadly and especially in important settings.

If you’re like the thousands of HR brands I get to engage every year, I’ll bet one or more of these really hits home for you. If it does, embrace the opportunity to make a shift and see what it feels like to experience a rise in the market value of your brand.

If your organization can’t or won’t invest in an upgrade in your market value, what’s holding you back from investing in yourself?

Return on Talent Investment – The Final Frontier in Human Capital Metrics
Monday, 8/27/2018 from 2:00pm –  3:00pm 
Presented by Keith Friede, Area Vice President, Talent & Organization Development, Gallagher 
Credit: HR (General) 

What organization would ever spend millions of dollars on a particular initiative and not do a return on investment calculation? The fact is that most organizations (perhaps yours!) do it every year with their largest single expenditure – human capital! In a recent study, 84% of executives said that it is important to present a robust financial case for talent investments; and organizations should do more to measure and evaluate financial return on talent investment. But only 35% of those executives feel it is possible to calculate ROI in talent with accuracy! Join us for a truly cutting-edge discussion on what it will take to close this gap, for your organization to manage human capital investments like other investments, and for you to influence and demonstrate leadership with executive decision-makers in your organization. We will address topics such as:

  • Managing human capital investments like other investments – as an investment portfolio
  • A return on investment primer
  • Taking talent metrics to a new level:
    • Traditional HR metrics
    • Top line measures to use in ROI analysis
    • “Macro” and “micro” metrics in human capital investment
    • Strategy mapping
    • How to make it work in actual practice!

Key Takeaways:

  • Begin managing human capital investments from an asset allocation/portfolio perspective
  • Utilize the principles of return on investment to use return on talent investment as a key metric
  • Make a stronger financial case for talent investments

Rewarding Employee Performance: Re-thinking the Impact of Compensation
Monday, 8/27/2018 from 4:00pm – 5:15pm 
Presented by Shari Dunn, Managing Director, National Practice Leader, Arthur J. Gallagher Human Resources and Compensation Consulting Practice
Credit: HR (General)

Recognizing … and paying for … performance is a long-standing challenge for employers, and there is new thinking now about how to actually achieve this goal. A key focus of this session is defining the entire employee performance process in terms of two primary elements: (1) means of performance as competencies and behaviors, and (2) ends of performance as business results. The questions addressed will be: how can employers help their employees to develop skills, and … how can they use financial incentives as motivation to apply these skills to the achievement of their company and job-specific goals? Effectively acknowledging employees’ contributions to the success of a business requires quantitative measurement of individual and/or team performance outcomes as well as proportionate, significant financial rewards beyond competitive salaries. This session will offer new, innovative ways to manage both base and variable compensation that bridges the divide often seen between compensation and employee development.

Key Takeaways:

  • How to define and measure performance as a broad management tool, not just an HR process
  • How to create and implement self-funding cash incentive compensation policies and practices
  • Why you should eliminate traditional performance reviews and replace them with development plans

Shari Dunn established her former firm, CompAnalysis, in 1980 to help employers make successful compensation and performance management decisions. Prior to starting her own firm, she held management and professional positions with Marine Midland Bank, National Biscuit Company, Boise Cascade Corporation, McKinsey and Co., Deloitte, Fibreboard Corporation, Bank of America, and Castle & Cooke.

CompAnalysis was acquired by Arthur J. Gallagher & Co. in 2010 and the practice is now part of the company’s international Human Resources & Compensation Consulting Practice, with S.F. Bay Area offices in San Francisco, Lafayette and San Rafael.

Benefits Innovation: The New Consumer-Centric Platforms & Coverage Models
Tuesday, 8/28/2018 from 11:15am – 12:30pm  
Presented by Dennis Weinberg, CEO, Hixme
Credit: HR (General)

The New Consumer-Centric Platforms & Coverage Models: This presentation will focus on the mega trend of Consumerization of Health Benefits. It will identify how benefit dollars get locked up in traditional systems due to underwriting dynamics that only exist because the current model is a zero sum game with all costs having to be absorbed within single employer risk pools. It will describe new consumer owned benefit models that allow full market choice for each worker and separately for each dependent, pointing out how this results in dramatically lower health care spending. Finally, it will demonstrate how benefit dollars under these models can be applied to non-traditional benefits such as Homeowners Insurance, Car Insurance, Child Care, and more.

Key Takeaways:

  • Single Employer Health Plans of The Past are obsolete / There are new Alternatives for Employers
  • Current Models Are Inherently Inflationary / You can Control Benefit Inflation
  • Better Benefits Consumerization is part a broader movement / 401K and Retiree Health Inform the Pathway

 Denny Weinberg is the CEO of Hixme, a digital health company transforming the health benefits model for large employers through a true consumer-centric platform and coverage model.

Hixme’s clients experience year over year savings compared to double-digit increases in the old model. Hixme’s WorkPlace Market™ accesses thousands of direct-to-consumer coverage health “bundles” that manage risk and personal preferences better than stand-alone health plans.

Reaching Candidates: Make the Job Search like an Amazon Buying Experience
Monday, 8/27/2018 from 4:00pm – 5:15pm
Presented by Lawrel Aufmuth, Vice President of Talent Acquisition, Advantage Solutions
Credit: HR (General) 

Recruiting is the most strategic, complex and dynamic function within HR, but it hasn’t received the technology, attention, or investment it deserves. In a tightened labor market, today’s candidates are consumers who value the candidate experience more than ever, and executives are prioritizing the need for cost-efficient and effective recruitment strategies. Because recruitment is so critical to business success, there’s an enormous opportunity at hand for companies to embrace a new approach to attracting and hiring candidates. It begins with tossing the reactive hiring model and old technology, and instead treating the job seeking process as a consumer experience. Advantage Solutions generates $65+ billion and supports 40,000+ employees, staking claim as a leading sales and marketing agency. To keep pace and successfully scale the business, Advantage Solutions implemented machine learning, revamped its career site and executed an advanced social and mobile strategy. Its application process now operates very similar to a “shoe-buying experience,” to meet consumers’ needs and preferences, and reduce drop-off. This session will offer advice to convince key decision makers on the critical function of recruitment, adopt marketing techniques, and implement new strategies into your recruiting model to make the job-searching experience as streamlined as shopping on Amazon.

Key Takeaways:

  • Learn how rich candidate data can impact your recruitment marketing strategy.
  • Discover how to incorporate marketing strategies into recruiting to appeal to today’s consumers.
  • Influence business decision makers to rethink recruitment strategies and the candidate experience.

Lawrel Aufmuth draws from more than 20 years of experience in Operations and Human Resources with a strong focus on leveraging human capital as a key organizational strategy. Her expertise is in building innovative strategies with the critical outcome being business strategies that can be implemented in the real world with limited budgets and competing priorities.

We value the certification of your team, so we’re making sure everyone in the Corporate Delegation program has an opportunity to get 10% off their HR certification preparation course registration. Your organization can host an on-site HR certification preparation course with PIHRA for the whole local HR community, or just your company, and your delegation will each receive 10% off their course registration.

⭐Free access to Senior/Exec level virtual presentation.
The most senior members of the CAHR Corporate Delegation Program have access to exclusive senior level professional development.

If you’ve already registered a group from your company, you are still eligible to participate. All organizations who send 10 or more individuals to CAHR18 receive access to these perks!

If you haven’t registered your team yet… why wait? The group discount will apply automatically when you register all individuals at the same time with the same form of payment.

Get ready for the new CAHR18 VIP experience. Register your team as a Corporate Delegation today!
