Presentation #1
Understanding Global Talent: The Moneyball Principal
Data analytics are helping HR professionals make more informed decisions - finally. The success of the Oscar nominated film Moneyball has put a spot light on how to fight the war for talent. The movie tells the true story of how Oakland A’s General Manager Billy Beane had no budget but created a highly competitive professional baseball team using statistical analysis. Beane was able to recruit undervalued baseball players and lead his underfunded baseball club to the playoffs. This session will review the differences in Asian, European and American talent pool data and the results of a recent talent benchmark that identified the requirements for the global HRIM Leader position.
Presenters: Carl Nielson, Managing Principal, The Nielson Group
Presentation #2
Building an Intel Fab and Large Scale Expat Infrastructure in China

The presenters will share best practices and lessons learned in deploying over 700 expatriates between China, Ireland and the U.S. to start a new factory in the Tier 2 city of Dalian, China. Challenges included training experienced and new-hire employees in technical, managerial, and intercultural skills. Expatriate housing was identified, but more housing, medical clinic and school needed to be built as the community in Dalian grew quickly in less than two years. Learn how building a collaborative group of suppliers and a self-help spirit among the expatriates helped the fab succeed. Learn how to plan for large group moves, especially to an emerging market country such as China.
Bonus: A white paper highlighting the global relocation best practices to emerge from the start up of $1B Fab 68 Intel factory in Dalian, China will be provided to attendees.

Presentation #1
Best Practices in Global Background Screening for Today’s Global HR Organizations

Human capital is increasingly being acknowledged as the most important investment for any company. Finding the right talent in the right job at the right time is an enormous challenge that global HR teams face in today’s current hiring scenario. In all of this, it can be rather embarrassing for an organization that does not exercise due care when vetting their employees, contract staff or trading partners as such organizations can also be exposed to enforcement action by overseas government authorities for violations of personal privacy or local labor laws. Even worse, not conducting what may be considered a reasonable level of due diligence or have not applied “due care” as may be required by new and existing security and anti-corruption legislation. In this session, you’ll be provided with an overview of the international legal, regulatory, compliance, and practical landscape associated with best practices in global background screening.
Presenter: Terry Corley, Director, Global Background Screening, Sterling Information Systems
Presentation #2
Ideologies on Global Data Privacy: Gaining Mutual Understanding and Tolerance
the citizens of the European Union and the United States of America often find themselves separated by far more than an ocean. There is nothing new about these differences as they have spawned everything from trade embargos to declarations of war. With this rich history, it is no wonder we often find ourselves at odds over how to properly preserve our privacy in the connected age. Although the EU and the US have found some common ground, there is still a significant disparity between what each region views as necessary steps to ensure our data privacy. With such a mutually important goal, why do key differences still exist between the EU and the US? This session will explore this topic by discussing the fundamental ideological differences that exist between the USA and the EU with regard to data privacy and protection.
Presenter: Jim Candler, Vice President, Williams-Sonoma, Inc.
Track: Global Analytics, December 7

As we move into the 21st century, we’ve discovered more & more companies who are managing their workforce globally.

Rather, it’s finding the best, most effective and most efficient workforce to support the product & business needs of global businesses. Listen as we discuss trends, opportunities, successes and failures in global workforce analytics.
