Workplace Restoration (St. John's)
2022-09-27 - 2022-09-29
Session Topic
How do workplaces become toxic? These damaging environments often develop following a significant negative event, or because of a series of issues that slowly erode morale over time. The results can be devastating for an organization, leading to conflicts, a loss of talented team members, and a steady decline in productivity.
The Workplace Restoration program uses role-playing exercises, case studies and facilitated discussions to help you identify, monitor and address these situations. This program is critical for organizations experiencing disruption in workplace relations, such as prolonged conflict or bullying, increasing harassment or grievance claims, leadership issues, strikes, investigations, mergers and acquisitions, terminations or significant organizational changes.
Program details

A poisoned workplace is one in which the behaviours of people negatively affect communication and productivity. This hostile environment has a substantial impact on trust, morale, employee retention and your bottom line. Learn how to identify the root causes and restore a healthy, respectful and productive work environment.

a) Do you know what’s really happening in your workplace?
You’ll learn how to recognize the activities, events and issues that contribute to a toxic work environment, and how to use screening tools to better understand the signs and symptoms of conflict. We’ll explore ways to communicate the assessment process and discuss methods for working with employees to get at the root of the problem.
b) Using evidenced –based data for real analysis
Using simulations and proven methodologies, you’ll have the opportunity to learn new data collection techniques to support your analysis of your workplace and identify specific causes. You’ll learn how to create surveys and reports that clearly describe problems and provide direction for a rebuilding plan.
c) Developing a collaborative action plan
Stakeholder buy-in is a critical component of your planning process. We’ll help you develop a strategy that is transparent, collaborative and builds trust. You’ll learn how to communicate the results of your assessment and the situations that are negatively impacting your organization, while providing a safe space for honest discussions that pave the way towards workplace restoration.
d) Creating your healthy workplace
Once your restoration strategy is developed, we’ll show you how to effectively implement it. You’ll learn techniques and tools for building trust and coaching champions across the organization, which will in turn increase confidence and productivity.
e) Staying the course
Ensure that your action plan is sustainable with monitoring and ongoing assessment of your work environment. We’ll provide you with measurement tools to track potential recurrences, and practice strategies for addressing resistance to change.

FREE Webinar: Salary Transparency: A More and More Vital Tool in Recruitment
2022-12-01 14:00 - 15:00
Presenter: Elise Marcotte – Senior Manager, Talent Intelligence, Indeed

Description:
The COVID-19 pandemic years have pushed people to reevaluate their priorities as well as their expectations of their professional lives. Not surprisingly, economic and financial concerns came to the forefront for many, which has influenced how they perceive their employer and how they go about searching for new jobs. More and more, job seekers and employees are requiring transparency around the topic of pay and compensation to be able to focus their efforts towards employers that can meet their needs.Similarly,employers are finding that salary transparency can have positive implications beyond talent attraction (such as reducing the pay gap and increasing fair pay across the board); however, the simple fact is that every organization has to start rethinking its communications policies around pay, as legislation is being proposed and enacted in a growing number of locations in North America, though, for many, it is still taboo.This live webinar will give you insights from Indeed on the importance of salary transparency, where pay information can be shared, as well as look at the hesitancy many have regarding honestly sharing their compensation structure.Join Elise Marcotte, Senior Manager – Talent Intelligence at Indeed, as she presents research and data by Indeed around Salary Transparency covering such questions as:

Why is Salary Transparency such a prevalent current topic?
Why is it important that we discuss Salary Transparency?
What are reasons to NOT share your company salary information?
Where can you share salary information?

Who should attend:
This webinar is best suited for Recruitment professionals, practitioners, and decision makers who are looking for the latest data and insights around how to develop their talent attraction tactics, such as improved salary transparency.

Format: Live Online – Zoom Webinar

We will then explore steps that HR professionals can take to assist employees and develop relevant workplace policies.
Learning Objectives:

Challenge common misconceptions about gender-based violence
Explain the cycle of abuse
Appropriately respond to and support employees who experience gender-based violence

NKE Prep Course (Live-Virtual)
2023-03-04 - 2023-03-11
CPHR Manitoba offers the CPHR NKE Preparation Course in partnership with Captus Press Inc.
This course is designed to help participants consolidate the knowledge they already have and – more importantly – identify where they need to focus additional studying in order to be successful in completing this multiple-choice assessment.
You Will:

Acquire information about the NKE that will enhance your understanding of the exam format and testing process.
Learn tips and tactics for writing multiple choice exams.
Review study skills and strategies to determine your personal learning plan.
Review the exam weighting to indicate knowledge gaps in each discipline area.
Practice sample exam questions to evaluate your individual knowledge.
Share learning with colleagues through discussion and participation in learning teams.

As a result, you will be able to:

Assess your personal knowledge of each discipline area.
Design a personal learning plan.
Successfully write the exam with greater confidence.

Participants in our virtual prep course said the following upon completion of the course:

They had a better understanding of how to approach writing a multiple choice exam
They had a better sense of their knowledge gaps and how to prepare for the exam
The manual would be a valuable study tool as they prepared for the exam
The sample exam questions included throughout the manual reinforced the materials covered in the course
The session recordings would be a valuable tool as they studied for the exam

About the Speaker

The Hon. Jody Wilson-Raybould
Former Member of Parliament | Former Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada | Bestselling Author
The Honourable Jody Wilson-Raybould, PC, OBC, KC, was raised to be a leader. The daughter of a hereditary chief and Indigenous leader, she always knew that she would seek leadership roles and responsibilities. As a lawyer, an advocate, and a leader among Canada’s Indigenous Peoples, she’s built a strong reputation as a bridge builder and champion of good governance and accountability. She shares her unique perspective as both a community and political leader on topics such as Indigenous rights and reconciliation, democracy and governance, leadership, and justice.
Wilson-Raybould was first elected as a Member of Parliament for the new constituency of Vancouver Granville in 2015. She was then appointed the Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada making her the first Indigenous person to serve in this portfolio. In January 2019, she was appointed the Minister of Veterans Affairs of Canada and Associate Minister of National Defence, positions she held until her resignation from cabinet in February 2019.
During the 2019 election, Wilson-Raybould was re-elected as an Independent Member of Parliament for Vancouver Granville, making her Canada’s first ever female Independent MP elected and the only elected Independent in the 43rd Parliament.
Prior to politics, Wilson-Raybould was a provincial crown prosecutor in Vancouver and served three terms as an elected Commissioner of the BC Treaty Commission. She was also elected BC Regional Chief of the Assembly of First Nations in 2009, where she devoted herself to the advancement of First Nations governance, fair access to land and resources, as well as improved education and health care services. She served until 2015, holding responsibilities for governance and Nation building on the Assembly of First Nations Executive.
Wilson-Raybould is a descendant of the Musgamagw Tsawataineuk and Laich-Kwil-Tach peoples, which are part of the Kwakwaka’wakw and also known as the Kwak’wala speaking peoples. She is a member of the We Wai Kai Nation with her traditional name, Puglaas, meaning “woman born to noble people.” She served two terms as an elected councillor for her Nation and was also a director and chair of the First Nations Finance Authority and a director of the First Nations Lands Advisory Board.
Wilson-Raybould is the bestselling author of three books, the political memoir “Indian” in the Cabinet: Speaking Truth to Power, which was a finalist for The Writers’ Trust Balsillie Prize for Public Policy and the Shaughnessy Cohen Prize for Political Writing; From Where I Stand: Rebuilding Indigenous Nations for a Stronger Canada; and, her most recent, True Reconciliation: How to Be a Force For Change.

FREE Webinar: Pay Equity: Recruiting, Advancing and Fairly Compensating Women in the Workplace
2023-03-28 14:00 - 15:00
Presenter: Karina Monesson – Sr. Manager, Human Insights Research & Advisory, UKG

Description: Gender pay inequity has been a hotly discussed topic for decades, yet there remains significant disparity in terms of how much men and women are paid. For women of color, these figures are even more disheartening, with countless additional barriers undercutting leadership, growth, and salary potential.
The pandemic has created countless new global challenges for working women, and worsened many pre-existing ones, including the gender pay gap. As a result, the World Economic Forum predict gender equality setbacks of at least a generation. With talent on the move and millions of women leaving the workforce altogether, organizations must approach talent and compensation practices in a new and evolved way—especially when it comes to underrepresented groups.
This session will review research findings and explore how organizations can achieve pay equity, advance women in the workplace, and drive meaningful change. Learn about evolving strategies for attracting, hiring, and retaining women in the workforce while ensuring equitable pay and opportunity.
In this presentation, you will learn to:

Explore the current landscape and future implications for women in the workplace.
Understand barriers and biases faced by women and learn tangible strategies to support their career development.
Uncover the role that technology plays in reaching and advancing women in the workplace.

Who should attend: HR leaders and executive.

Format: Live Online – Zoom Webinar
All login information will be sent to you via email the day prior to the session. Please check your junk/spam folder if it has not come through to your in-box.

About the presenter:

As Sr. Manager of Human Insights Research & Advisory, Karina Monesson helps lead UKG’s thought leadership research strategy and partners closely with business leaders to help them maximize the value of their people and technology investments. A former journalist and market researcher, Karina speaks regularly with conference and customer audiences about workforce trends and best practices and her work has been featured in Forbes, SHRM, HR Dive, HR Executive, HR Daily Advisor, and Human Resources Today. She serves on the Research Board for the Equity at Work Council and the Board of Directors for Conquer Addiction, and she is passionate about leveraging research, data, and technology to improve people’s lives and drive systemic change.
