HR Technology Conference & Exposition
Conference: September 29 - October 1, 2010
Expo: September 29 - 30, 2010
McCormick Place, Chicago

 

Dear Colleague:

Join us for the most innovative HR Technology® Conference in 13 years. This year's program is better and even more useful for two reasons:

First, it's based on real-time feedback from our 1,900+ LinkedIn group members, most of whom are prior attendees. They wanted more voices, more interactivity, more technology and more personal involvement in the conference – and this year they’ll get it.

Second, we’ve followed the call of Social Media and used it not only to plan this year’s event and help you find the colleagues you need there, but also integrated it into the program.

You'll still be attending the best conference in the world about technology for HR.

Now if you’re a first timer, ask your work colleagues about us.  Chances are good that someone in your organization has already attended the conference themselves. You may be surprised by what they say:

We don’t sell speaking slots to vendors. That guarantees the conference program reflects your critical interests and not our bottom line. Our program is created to benefit only you, not us.

You won’t be dizzied by buzzwords or vendor hype, but will instead learn directly from experts and senior practitioners who are putting technology to work for their organizations today. You’ll learn the details of what they’ve done, plus the business benefits they’ve gained and the potholes they’ve encountered that you can now avoid.

Our one constant goal for 13 years: To help you get the business benefits out of technology.

And this year, we’re working even harder to earn your attendance and give you more reasons to join us. In addition to our focus on three critical areas in HR technology – Talent Management, Social Media and HCM & Workforce Planning – we're revisiting the more traditional functional areas that continue to plague you.

If it’s important to you today, we’ll be explaining and demonstrating it.

Here are some of the highlights:

  • Oracle Shows Its Next Generation HCM: Unless you attend Oracle’s private user conference, you'll see for the first time the new HCM demoed by Gretchen Alarcon, Oracle’s VP of Global HCM Product Strategy.  
  • Naomi Bloom Debates Gartner’s Jim Holincheck: The world’s two leading experts on HR technology will face off on the hottest issues of the day. Don’t make up your mind on a critical issue until you hear what they have to say.
  • The Shootout: Our signature event is now a full track with four sessions, each featuring two vendors demoing their live software to a tough scripted scenario — so they can’t just show you whatever they please. That makes The Shootout very different from the marketing demos you could get in your office or even be asked to pay for at other conferences!  
  • Twitterversity: Bring your fully charged WiFi-equipped laptop to get hands-on Twitter instruction from famous Punk Rock HR blogger Laurie Ruettimann, joined by Gen Y and Gen X HR practitioners as her roving teaching assistants to help you one-on-one.
  • Talent Management System Vendors — Leaders and Laggards in Customer Satisfaction: Hear how hundreds of current users really feel about their vendors and their products before you make a choice. The second annual report from Bersin & Associates will again debut at the conference, this time naming the top and bottom rankings.
  • Getting the Most Out of Workforce Planning: A panel of leading-edge HR practitioners — of course from Google and Microsoft, but also from Ameriprise — will tell you how to launch, manage and derive value from a Workforce Planning system and make it integral to your organization’s success.
  • The Best How-To Advice on Social Recruiting: Everybody’s talking and writing about using social networks like Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook for recruiting, but almost nobody has got it right. Learn the methods and strategies that work – backed by metrics to prove it!
  • Five Other Panels:
    • Fourth Annual Talent Management Panel with Knowledge Infusion CEO Jason Averbook, focusing this year on how TM has failed at some companies and how to fix.
    • Being Global with Karen Beaman, Founder & CEO of Jeitosa Group, with senior executives and experts who are already there.  
    • Job Boards – Valued 21st Century Partners or R.I.P? with Recruiting guru Gerry Crispin of CareerXroads, featuring a passionate argument from staffing leaders and insightful vendors on the future of job boards.
    • Social Learning – What Is It? Why the Buzz? Are There Results? with expert Jeanne Meister and four CLOs exploring this latest phenomenon.
    • Blogger Insights with Kris Dunn, VP HR at DAXKO, and The HR Capitalist blogger. Learn about Social Media from the people who live it.
  • Dave Duffield: Returns to the HR Technology® stage with his client, Flextronics International.
  • Expert Discussions: Five Industry Analysts host separate group discussions and Q&A sessions based on their favorite subjects.
  • Expo: Certain to be the world’s largest again this year. Dozens of new products will be introduced. Plus, many vendors bring their CEOs, giving you product insights you can compare and act on.
  • Plus sessions on Payroll, Comp and Benefits

Join us for Human Resource Executive®’s 13th Annual HR Technology® Conference & Exposition. We’re the best in the world because we know what you need to learn and are dedicated to helping you learn it.
