Day One: Aug. 20 (Tuesday)
 
Nurturing Future Leaders - Deliberate or Opportunistic

A capable management team is the key to success for all enterprises. As companies continue to expand in China’s high growth environment, the size and capability of the management team will need to increase and improve. In addition, succession planning is critical but often not properly implemented in many enterprises. How should enterprises build and expand their management team and nurture future leaders? What are the pros and cons of “promote from within” vs. “hire from outside” approaches? How do companies effectively implement a succession planning process? In addition to identifying and nurturing future managers and leaders, how to make them work effectively as a team? What is the formula for a “dream team”? Should team members have similar or different background? How to build and implement an effective management development plan?

CEO's Role in HR: Expectations?vs. Realities

Strategic HR has been a hot topic among HR professionals in recent years. However, are HR professionals really playing a strategic role in enterprises and actively driving the strategic HR process? Or, are they still spending most of their time on routine and administrative issues? At the same time, some HR professionals are complaining that their CEOs do not appreciate the importance of HR strategies and/or do not spend enough time and resources on HR initiatives. Nevertheless, both CEOs and HR professionals agree that HR is key to enterprise success and competitive advantage. How could we bridge the gaps between CEOs and HR professionals, and between expectations and realities? How could we facilitate the building of an effective working relationships between CEOs and HR professionals?

New HR Agenda – The Story from the Data

What is the agenda that senior HR executives are bringing to the management table, and what capabilities are required to play the game at that level?
In May 2002, the 2002 iteration of the Human Resource Competency Study at the University of Michigan was completed. This survey has been done four times over the past fifteen years.
