In a mad
rush to advance into the New Economy, companies frequently ignore the critical
issues and problems that face the Human Resource practitioner as a consequence
of technological innovations. With more information becoming digital and increasingly
accessible on-line, these companies oftentimes overlook the importance of
installing a comprehensive security system for their networks, thereby exposing
confidential information to the public. To increase the productivity and maximize
the return on their investments, they thrust new tools upon their employees
without due regard to the risks that may come into play.
We believe
that the rapid pace of the New Economy should not be a reason for companies
to disregard the simultaneously developing trends in Human Resources. The
tools of the new technology should be closely examined and constantly reviewed
to determine how they may benefit the evolving workplace, without undermining
the hidden risks involved.
This Seminar
aims to introduce the Human Resource practitioner and administrators to these
productivity enhancing tools. More importantly, it discusses the risks related
to the use of these tools and prepares them to face the challenge of working
in the New Economy.
Who
Should Attend:
This seminar
is designed for Human Resource Managers, IS/IT Managers, Project Managers,
Administrators, Educators, Lawyers, and IT professionals who are responsible
for the development and implementation of business strategies geared towards
eCommerce.
