Why do smart people fail? Why do technically brilliant individuals have trouble managing others and collaborating on a team? What they lack is a critical level of Emotional Intelligence (EI) and the ability to manage theirs and others emotions when they are under pressure.

Whether you are leading a team or want to increase your individual performance, the EI program will teach you the foundational principles and brain science of emotional intelligence. You will become a student of human behaviour: understanding what your brain does under pressure and how that affects your decision making and the impact you have on others. 

 

HRMAM's Premiere Event 

Designed to showcase outstanding Human Resource achievements in Manitoba, HRMAM's HR Excellence Awards honour employers and individuals who are leaders in diversity, development, impact and innovation. New awards categories and a new venue for 2016 make this an event you won't want to miss - celebrate with your colleagues at this year's HR Excellence Awards!

Purchasing a Corporate Table is a great way to celebrate as an organization. Or even better, sponsor your Corporate Table to receive your company's name on the table, preferred table location, your company's name on our dinner slideshow and recognition in the event program. 

 

HR leaders from our community will be sharing their fascinating and inspiring stories with us. You will learn about their professional stories and the influence their personal journeys have had on their careers. You will have the opportunity to interact together and with them.

 

Back by popular demand, Joel Gervais (Vital Life Inc.) will explore the ins and outs of drug and alcohol policies in the workplace leaving you with the tools to create and implement one in your workplace.

 

This year's presenters will cover a wide range of topics as selected by members via our survey that was completed in August 2015.

 

This program focuses on strengthening competencies on tactical skills such as collaboration, problem solving, and communication to achieve and maintain success. Our goal is to help individuals shift into taking a coach approach to leadership with the aim to develop others to sharpen critical thinking skills, adapt to change, raise accountability, and to access their own resourcefulness.

 

At HRMAM, we are committed to building the strategic capability and organizational impact of HR practitioners, and providing value to our members.

To further support the Continued Professional Development needs of our growing population of Certified Human Resources Professionals (CHRPs), and in recognition of the quality of some of the HR professional development programs offered throughout Manitoba, we are proud to introduce the HRMAM Accreditation Program.

 

HRIA (Alberta) will be holding its annual conference on April 20 & 21, 2016. They are offering HRMAM members a discount on their registration, allowing them to receive the Alberta member rate.
