Learn & Connect
Together, HR and Leadership can breathe new life into any organization, so HRMAM is gathering people, ideas and tools that will infuse work life with freshness, value and meaning.
Connecting to the pulse of business means tapping into people's real motivations: supporting cultures where great ideas thrive; creating experiences that customers love; and finding all the ways that 'soft' influences align with 'hard' performance indicators.
On October 29 & 30, HR professionals from around Manitoba will gather together at Connect 2014: Pulse to share information, learn new ideas and trends, network and be inspired.
