Leadership and Responsible Corporate Governance: Planning for a Changing
Workforce The growing number of single-parent households presents a new challenge
for corporate America with leadership being faced with making changes to programs,
policies and procedures that will provide support systems for employees while
continuing to meet corporate objectives, budgets and productivity. Single-parent
households have more than doubled over the last 30 years, growing from 11 percent to
27 percent. Hispanics will become the largest minority group, Gen Yers will compose
36% of the workforce by 2014 and within the same period, women will account for 46.8
% of the labor force. The changes will place new demands on business creating a need
to adapt policies and procedures to accommodate changes in the workforce. Leadership
will have to be forward thinking in anticipating the effect this paradigm shift and how
they will take responsible actions to govern the health and welfare of corporations, nonprofits and government agencies

will; while tenacity demands the work of a sagacious pioneer. Jewel tackles the
dexterity and an explosive determination required to revive those who have succumb to
the pressures of growing and sustaining a business. She addresses the tough question
of whether business owners are victims or volunteers of their circumstances and offers
solutions for navigating through the storm. Understand power moves that will help
avoid hitting the panic button that can lead to hurried decisions with long-term
destructive effects. Gain insight on solutions that go beyond eliminating personnel and
slashing budgets, to instead perform artful surgery, work strategic alliances, maximize
client relationships to lead work teams out of the business wilderness.

Resources An Overview of the Leading Labor Trends that will Affect all Organizations
in the Upcoming Years (1-2 hours)
Much has been said about the need for HR to play an integral role in the strategic
leadership of their organization with the executive team. This need is no longer an
option in any organization. The emerging Human Resources trends will now dominate
the competitive success of every organization. In this session, leading authority and
international best-selling author, Dr. Bob Nelson will share his research and insights on
the emerging workforce trends as described in his upcoming (March 2012) book 1501

Dr. Nelson will present current research and data about the above trends and
specifically address what HR professionals need to do to help create a sense of urgency
in leading their executive team to proactively address these issues before they become
problems for the organization and its ability to compete. Attendees will leave with a
broader perspective on the leading labor trends impacting human resources and
practical strategies for addressing those trends in their workplace.

Business Continuity: The criticality of a structured assessment of your companys

recovery capabilities in the event of a man-made or natural disaster. Can be conducted
as a workshop for an audience that has some understanding of Business Continuity.
For an audience with limited knowledge of Business Continuity practices, can be
conducted as a presentation to increase their knowledge.
Human Resources practitioners may not be included in their Companys Continuity
Planning but will ALWAYS be included in the response and recovery when a disaster
occurs. Increased understanding prior to a disaster, man-made or natural, will result in
a more effective response and recovery, which will protect the Companys financial and
reputational well being.
By implementing a structured assessment, your Company will be able to identify any
gaps in your current Business Continuity planning immediately and will be able to make
appropriate remedies.

Facts you Should Know Many organizations fail to get the most out of their HR systems.
While the system may work its clear there is significant room for improvement. Most
blame the software however in many cases the problem is the result of a flawed
implementation.
The reality is the software you already own and have installed has functionality that is
not being used, is being misused and/or is not appropriately married to your processes.
This presentation will discuss why your inefficiencies exist and what can be done to
resolve them.

Donya Rose is the Founding Partner and

Managing Principal of The Cygnal Group,
located in North Carolina. She has over twenty
years experience in leading the design and
implementation of systems and processes to
ensure alignment of sales results with top
business priorities. She specializes in incentive
plan design, most often sales compensation
plan design. Recent clients include Home
Depot, Red Hat Software, Valassis, and

Ms. Roses passion is practical value-creating
compensation plan design supported by
extensive modeling to anticipate effects of
proposed changes on individuals and the
company. Because clients generally choose to
stay engaged with The Cygnal Group for years,
Ms. Rose has had a chance learn which plan
design elements often recommended by
consultants are most likely to confuse sales
people and/or confound plan administrators. As
a result, she focuses on simple, clear designs
with direct links to strategically important
business results. Prior to founding The Cygnal
Group, Ms. Rose was a consultant in Towers
Perrins Sales Rewards Practice. Before joining
Towers Perrin, she worked for a global
materials science company where she
