Risk Management in Hiring and Promotion

Why Should You Attend:

When was the last time you saw a hiring & promotion disaster, whether a hire that did not work out or a serious lawsuit over perceptions of hiring & promotion discrimination? How do you avoid situations that lead to unacceptable risks in hiring & promotion? Behavioural economics studies show that most hiring & promotion disasters are preventable and stem from one or more poor decisions. Pioneering leaders have recently begun integrating decision science into their decision-making processes on hiring & promotion to help the teams and organizations they lead avoid disasters. This presentation offers case studies and best practices from these pioneering leaders and provides clear takeaways to help you avoid disasters in hiring & promotion.

Learning Objectives:

• Identify situations that create unacceptable risks in hiring & promotion
• Learn about problematic mental patterns (called cognitive biases) that lead to unacceptable risks in hiring & promotion
• Discover how pioneering organizations address cognitive biases to avoid unacceptable risks in hiring & promotion
• Adapt best practices on avoiding unacceptable risks from these organizations to your own context
• Develop processes that empower everyone in your organization to avoid unacceptable risks in hiring & promotion

Areas Covered in the Webinar:

• Why those in positions of responsibility over hiring & promotion in the increasingly disrupted future cannot afford to rely on traditional approaches to this area
• How hiring practices need to change to address our increasingly global and multicultural environment
• How promotion practices need to be adapted to address the ambiguous and uncertain future
• The extensive behavioral economics research on how hiring & promotion goes wrong, and the implications for those in positions of responsibility over hiring & promotion
• Case studies of effective hiring & promotion strategies informed by this research
• Specific behavioral science-based techniques that pioneering leaders use to manage unacceptable risks in hiring & promotion
