Change Management Webinar

IHRIM, the professional association for knowledge, education and solutions supporting human capital management is presenting a webinar featuring one of the worldís most successful transportation, logistics and sourcing companies, C.H. Robinson, and Arbita, the leading provider of global job advertising distribution solutions, as they discuss the components of a successful change management initiative. The webinar will be held at 11:00 a.m., CST on Thursday October 18. Visit www.ihrim.org/events/Webinars/webinarOctober1807.asp for details of the presentation and registration information.

C.H. Robinson, a hundred-year old company, had recently implemented Peoplesoftís Candidate Gateway product as their applicant tracking system, but recruiters were still posting requisitions directly to numerous job boards. With over 1,000 hires annually, they needed to decrease the cost of distributing job postings while improving their return on investment. Key considerations for an overall solution included objective job board performance analysis, job posting reporting, consolidated billing, and strategic media consulting.

Presenters, Eric Mesenburg, recruiting manager, C.H. Robinson, and Robin Ferguson, director of Client Services and Media Solutions, Arbita, will present to attendees:

ï Overview of Change Management Initiative,
ï Processes at CHRW prior to Implementation,
ï Change Management Challenges,
ï Change Management Best Practices,
ï Support needs in getting the technology adopted by end users, and
ï Why ongoing collaboration benefits each company.
