Business Essentials: Translating Your Personality to Your Business, Presented by Google
As a company grows, it may not be clear how to instill in employees how to act and represent the company. Hiring and retaining talented employees is important and a management philosophy of freedom and responsibility may be a better way to continued success.
Guest presenter Devin Baer, Google-Head of Fiber Business , will share how the key to their reputation of superior customer service is in their associates and how investing heavily in their work environment fosters a sense of value, encourages career development and rewards company commitment.
Business owners and HR professionals will be able to learn and apply the following:
• Measureable advantages of workplace flexibility
• Cost & implementation of value-driven aspects of culture
• Development of freedom and team-based programs and initiative
