Now is the time for HR business leaders to look beyond the COVID-19 crisis and start preparing for the post-virus workplace, which likely will include many permanent changes to how companies engage with their employees. Arthur C. Brooks of the Harvard Kennedy School and the Harvard Business School (and a former president of the American Enterprise Institute) will share three key issues that company leaders and HR professionals should be thinking about today.
SHRM president and CEO Johnny C. Taylor, Jr., will provide insight into the strategic thinking the HR community must engage in as they plan for this new workplace reality.
