#HROS: Open Source Comes to HR

SHRM 2016 Annual Conference & Exposition
This session will introduce a growing movement of collaboration and sharing within the HR community, and provide actionable examples of how other organizations design and execute specific HR initiatives.

The role of HR leaders in today's global economy is becoming increasingly complicated. Finding new ways to stay on top of new tools, trends, and approaches to effectively support your organizations is essential, yet increasingly difficult. What if you had access to dozen of case studies and resources contributed by your global peers to educate and inspire your work? That's the vision of Open Source HR. This session will show you:

  • How “collaboration” is challenging “competition” in the HR community.
  • Access to detailed downloadable case studies and resources to educate and inspire your work.
  • The anatomy of an open source HR case study.
  • Specific examples of how leading organizations like Hootsuite, Oracle, Dell, OPower, and Earls Kitchen & Bar design, execute, and measure HR initiatives.
