    This presentation will provide a simple roadmap of seven “unwritten” strategies for taking control of your HR career and managing it successfully. These are strategies that your boss or organization probably won’t tell you about and will be illustrated with actual experiences, case examples and anecdotes – not theory.

    Embracing these strategies is essential in today’s volatile and uncertain global economy where mergers, restructurings and rightsizings occur constantly…and where you are just one re-organization away from being out of a job.

    You may find this especially presentation helpful if your HR career seems stuck in a rut or if you've concluded that no matter what you do, no matter how hard you work, you're not getting the appreciation, advancement opportunities or rewards you want.

    This presentation is based on the Amazon HR best seller: Unwritten HR Rules: 21 Secrets for Attaining Awesome Career Success in Human Resources and presented by its author. This book is considered by many the “career bible” for HR professionals aspiring to reach an executive role in Human Resources or desiring to take their careers to the next level -- either inside or outside of their current organizations

    - Why being great at your job and generating strong performance reviews is not sufficient for advancing your human resources career in today’s competitive marketplace.
