Technology - The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly

September 9, 2010 Membership Meeting

Steven Gall, President, Gall & Gall Company,
and District Director of the Ohio SHRM State Council.

After a lengthy period of layoffs and restructuring, many employers are returning their attention to the improvement of workplace policies and compliance with revised rules and statutes. Steven will discuss a few of the areas of the internet, company websites; especially for recruiting that demand attention. In addition, he will look in to how social networks such as LinkedIn are helping companies recruit, as well as alternative websites that will help you balance your recruitment needs. Steven will offer insight in to turning productivity around through proper technology policies at your company.

Join us at the Quality Inn Hotel and Conference Center (formerly Holiday Inn), Leffel Lane in Springfield, from 11:30 to 1:00. Networking and lunch begins at 11:30, so please be prompt. You'll want to bring a stack of business cards to pass out to fellow attendees to build your network and resource of knowledge! (Yes, you can call your fellow HR professionals for "what did you do in this situation?" advice!) For HRCI certification, the meal must be near complete before the speaker begins his presentation. Please RSVP to adonahoe@greaterspringfield.com. Guests and students of the HR discipline are welcome to attend with a lunch fee payable at the door.
