For small and medium businesses
Your organisation isn’t too large, but it’s growing fast. Until now, there was no HR, or it operated at a very basic level. Most likely, it was limited to personnel and payroll issues, sometimes recruitment, rarely training.
Meanwhile, the company is developing. You're trying to capitalize on emerging market opportunities. However, the company is not ready for such a rapid change. Competences that were appropriate for managing a few people during the start-up period are no longer sufficient...
Along with development of organisations, certain problems originating in increasing the scale of operation arise. When you add in acquisitions, there come others, for example, problems with integrating the companies and building a shared culture.

For large companies and corporations
Your organization has already reached a considerable scale, or you work in a large company/corporation.
Deadlines are always looming over, you lack resources and multiple projects are being carried out at the same time. The owners/managers expect increasingly better results, which are becoming more and more difficult to deliver. It seems that in the light of changes through which the market is going, existing solutions are no longer enough. You are looking for ideas and inspiration for how to deal with these challenges.
The demographic shifts and technological changes, globalisation, new models of work, the disconnect between the education system and the business needs, they all are trends, which have a significant impact on how the company is functioning.
It is increasingly difficult to obtain talented and committed employees. The challenge is to build an appropriate organisational culture and authentic leadership based on company values...

3 DIMENSIONS OF HR (3modules)
In your company HR processes have been functioning properly for a long while. The sheer volume of daily duties does not allow you to track the latest market trends and changing HR practices. You feel that you need to modify your behaviour and/or the behaviour of your team to better support the business. You need inspiration, knowledge of new solutions and exchange of experience. Or perhaps, this is the first time you are in the role of an HR Business Partner or HR manager and you stand in front of new challenges.
Take part in a training consisting of modules:
3 DIMENSIONS OF HR – good start (Module I)
The first dimension of HR – it protects the company from the legal side, it’s the most common and the most familiar face of HR. In this dimension, most often you will find payroll issues and relations with employees and their representation. A well-functioning basic level is essential to build a more sophisticated HR functionality. It also has a significant impact on how corporate culture is perceived by employees. It is therefore important, shape and modify it properly from the very beginning.
Take part in this module, during which we will talk about:
- what is the essence of Human Resource Management
- what are the new trends in HRM
- how does the way of performing basic duties related to the administration of personnel affect the shaping of organisational culture
- why does proper introduction of the employee to the company and appropriate treatment during the period of employment play such an important role
- why is it so important to treat the employee with respect at the time of contract termination
We will also show how basic ranges of HR functionality can contribute to building the image of the employer.
3 DIMENSIONS OF HR – increased efficiency (Module II)
The second dimension of HR is associated with raising the efficiency of the organisation. At this stage, HR is expected to smoothly run the processes of recruitment and selection, evaluation and remuneration, training and development. HR should also affect the efficiency of the organization through the use of appropriate indicators, gauges, research, etc. Thus understood HR appears in many organizations, but it often does not work as expected.
Take part in this module, during which we will discuss:
- whether best practices are indeed the best
- how to choose practices that will best support your company
- what are the latest trends in HR practices
- how HR processes are interrelated
- how to effectively develop and implement HR processes such as: recruitment and selection, evaluation and remuneration, training and development, all focussed on organisational effectiveness
- how to manage organisational resources through competencies
- how do HR processes support business goals
We will also show practical examples of implemented solutions.
3 DIMENSIONS OF HR - building added value (Module III)
The third dimension of HR brings real added value to the organization. At this level strategic role of HR in the organisation is the most evident. Its main role is developing leadership, talent, building succession plans, creating a learning organisation, building a strong organisational culture and developing the organisation's ability to achieve strategic business objectives. This dimension of HR occurs only in some companies and line managers are often not aware just how much HR can help them.
Take part in this module, during which we will talk about:
- how to support the development of leadership and organisation
- how to build organisational resources
- how to manage talent
- how to create succession plans
- how to build a strong organisational culture adapted to business strategy
And also, how to implement authentic leadership based on values in the company.
The 3 DIMENSIONS OF HR training is designed in a way that allows you to benefit from the entire program or individual modules depending on your needs.
HR Business Partners, HR managers and those interested in HR practices (eg. Line managers) are particularly welcome to this training.

Mergers and Acquisitions
Are you preparing for the due diligence process? Has your company acquired another, or is prior to a merger with an equivalent organisation? Do you want to make the integration process proceed efficiently and quickly? Or maybe after the process of formal integration of companies, there still are "Us" and "Them" in the company?
Both the processes of M&A (Mergers & Acquisitions), as well as changes, more than often fail. Practice shows that only 25-30% end with success.
The most difficult areas in the process of M&A include labour issues, IT and finances. Companies in the processes of M&A focus on financial and technical aspects, and yet the most common cause of failure lies on the side of human affairs...

MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS – the critical factor of integration
Are you on the eve of integration? Are you acquiring a company, or is your company acquired?
You are looking for practical knowledge of how to quickly and efficiently carry out the integration process. You know that resistance accompanies any change. Do you want to learn how to use the energy and potential of your employees? What should you do for their motivation and commitment to remain?

Organisation Development
You are implementing a new strategy. You should move the company to different tracks. You know that it requires a change in the way the company has been functioning until now. You expect employees to change their attitude and you want to ensure success for your company in the long run.
You want the changes to fuel your company and not block it. You know that the ability to be flexible is the key to the future...

ERA OF ENGAGEMENT – conscious building of company’s culture
Each organisation has its own culture. Sometimes it is consciously constructed, and sometimes it’s a coincidence. However, it always has an impact on the functioning of the organisation. Well shaped culture can support the achievement of business results, a neglected one can hinder it. In the rapidly changing competitive environment, flexible, innovative customer-oriented organisational culture is necessary to achieve the business objectives. Another important element of organisational culture is also conscious building and maintaining the employee engagement. Providing motivation becomes more difficult due to the growing generational differences in the workplace. Your managers complain about difficulties in finding workers from the younger generation. They criticise their lack of motivation or commitment and demanding attitude. On the other hand, people from middle and older generation still work at your company. The extended retirement age results in several generations of employees working in your organisation. Do you understand their various needs and know how to engage and keep them in the organisation?
Take part in our training where you will learn:
- why and how to change organisational culture
- how does the culture affect building of commitment and to what degree does it affect the efficiency of the organisation
- why is communication an important element of organisational culture
- how to benefit from diverse teams
- how do the culture and communication need to change in response to market trends
You will also learn innovative ideas and communication implementations.
-
EFFECTIVE CHANGE – change management on a human scale
Is your organisation in for a big change? One that will include for example: personal cost optimisation, restructuring, redundancies, selling parts of the company, changes in the scope of activities, etc.?
You figure that you have too little resources to carry out this change in an effective way? Or maybe, you have never implemented such a change, or you have a bad experience behind you?
You're not sure that your organization, managers and staff are ready for this change? How do you take care of motivation and commitment of the people? What will you do to keep the current organisational operations at a good level?
Take part in our training where you will learn:
- why the management of people during the change determines its success
- what to do to make the employees ready for change
- how to take care of motivation and commitment of employees so they effectively carry out their duties during this time
- why it is important to approach the fears of change and emotions that accompany it
- how to exploit the potential of the organization

And also, what is the role of HR in the process of change.
