HumanConcepts Announces New Webinar Series

Exeter, United Kingdom – 28 February 2008 - HumanConcepts, the developer of OrgPlus®, the leading software for workforce modelling and intelligence, today announced a series of no-cost webinars for human resources professionals.

These short, interactive webinars demonstrate the tools and techniques that HR professionals and IT support teams can use today to support organisational change, workforce planning and critical decision-making. Human resources executives from companies such as British Telecom, Quintiles, and Smiths Medical will provide solutions to some of HR’s most pressing problems such as reducing costs by ensuring HR data accuracy, providing access to key HR metrics and reducing the time required to implement workforce reorganisations.

The next webinar, ‘HR Management: Strategic Benefits of Workforce Visualisation’, is on 4 March 2008. This will be hosted by Ryan Kandel, Director of HRIS at Quintiles, a global leader in pharmaceutical services. Kandel will discuss how Quintiles uses intelligent organisational charts to maintain an up-to-date, visual snapshot of the organisation - providing a valuable resource for employee communications as well as key employee metrics for workforce planning activities. The webinar will include a Q&A session.

“These events form the basis of a valuable dialogue between industry visionaries, our team and the broader professional community,” said Ralph Lentz, VP of Sales and Marketing at HumanConcepts. “The interaction helps us all develop and implement new ideas in HR and HR technology.”

The Quintiles webinar on workforce visualisation will be followed by a webinar focusing on mergers and acquisitions on 27 March 2008. Customers will discuss how they use workforce modelling and best practices in organisational charting to deal with the complex process of merging large organisations. Additional webinars addressing common problems faced by human resources professionals will be presented throughout 2008.
