11:15am–12:05pm Organizational Development: Bridging the Gap Between Organization Strategy and the Indvidual Performance
This presentation identifies the whitespace within your organizational chart: the large but mostly unoccupied territory that exists in every company. Where rules are vague, authority is fuzzy, budgets are nonexistent, and strategy is unclear. The whitespace in your organizational chart is where your customers live and all the action is, it contains all the opportunities that fall outside the scope of formal planning, budgeting, and management. In today’s rapidly changing environment, Brent Fleming speaks to how executives, department heads and human resources must look at their organization in a new way to succeed in order to bridge the gap between organizational strategy and individual performance.

9:45am–10:35am Implementing a Retention Strategy
There is a direct link between employee satisfaction and customer satisfaction, and between customer satisfaction and improved financial performance. In this presentation, Brent Fleming will look at the employee "disengagement" where your employee is less committed, less enthusiastic and less likely to be bringing a top game to work and how to turn this around.
