<p>This unique two-day workshop programme is focused on helping HR teams achieve new levels of peak performance. It uses a framework based on the four inter-locking strands of high-performance HR: the core skills of HR, legal requirements, best practice, and organisational policies and procedures.</p>
<p>The precise content of the programme varies, according to current levels of HR performance in your organisation and any particular issues of concern, but the object is always the same: to enhance the participants' mastery of the core skills of HR, to ensure that they have an up-to-date knowledge of employment law and to facilitate a review of organisational policies and procedures to appropriate standards of best practice. This workshop-led approach is an ideal method for identifying the steps needed to bring all members of the HR team up to the same level of peak performance.</p><ul><li>UNDERSTAND THE COMPLEXITY OF THE ROLE WITHIN HR AND IDENTIFY SPECIFIC CHALLENGES</li><li>UNDERSTAND THEIR CONTRIBUTION TO THE HR FUNCTION AND TO ORGANISATIONAL OBJECTIVES</li><li>RECOGNISE THE ESSENTIAL CORE HR SKILLS, THEIR OWN STRENGTHS AND DEVELOPMENT AREAS</li><li>DEVELOP ASSERTIVE BEHAVIOUR</li><li>RECOGNISE THE POWER TO INFLUENCE, AND PLAN AN EVEN MORE EFFECTIVE STRATEGY</li><li>MANAGE CONFLICT CONSTRUCTIVELY</li><li>EMPLOY A STRUCTURED APPROACH WHEN COACHING OTHERS</li><li>MANAGE THEMSELVES, THEIR TIME AND THEIR MEETINGS EFFECTIVELY</li><li>USE THE CORE SKILLS OF HR FLEXIBLY IN 'DIFFICULT' OR 'SENSITIVE' SITUATIONS</li><li>COMMUNICATE MORE EFFECTIVELY IN GROUP SETTINGS AND IN 1:1 SITUATIONS</li><li>UNDERSTAND THE OVERALL LEGAL FRAMEWORK OF EMPLOYMENT LAW</li><li>APPRECIATE THE IMPORTANCE OF EMPLOYMENT STATUS</li><li>AVOID AND DEFEND CASES OF UNLAWFUL DISCRIMINATION</li><li>MANAGE SHORT- AND LONG-TERM ABSENCE LAWFULLY</li><li>ENSURE THAT THE ORGANISATION IS NOT UNNECESSARILY EXPOSED TO CLAIMS FOR UNFAIR DISMISSAL</li><li>IMPLEMENT DISCIPLINARY PROCEDURES FAIRLY AND LAWFULLY</li></ul><section>

With this software we explore the uses of words, shapes, textures, forms, sizes and colours to communicate by combining ideas and images to make a new concept. Graphic design through common misconception is not just about layout and typography, but much more about ideas behind visual meaning. Graphic design can make a company more successful in the world if it makes communication smart, attractive and able to captivate its audience. Graphic design can effectively be used by businesses to make (or break) their brand identity, increase sales, promote web traffic or promote services and products through advertising on their websites to convey complex data to its readers in a clear way.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Elements of graphic design include:&nbsp;<strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">Colour, Size, Texture, Line, Shape, Space and, Form</strong>.
