Meeting held - March 25, 2009

A virtual meeting of the IAOP Global Human Capital Chapter, co-chaired by Lori Blackman of DNL Global and Julia Santos of Johnson & Johnson Group of Consumer Companies, was held on Wednesday, March 25.

The panel discussion focused on “The Impact of Today’s Economic Environment on Outsourcing Professionals – Creating your Personal Strategy.”  Participants learned the best ways to maneuver through today’s uncertain economy, significant corporate layoffs and disconcerting government opinions about outsourcing to create a positive impact on their outsourcing careers. Our panel of experts, composed of Lori Blackman of DNL Global, Julia Santos of J&J Group of Consumer Companies, Kurt Kohorst of Liberty Mutual Insurance and Linda Chapin of EDS and GHC Advisors, provided an overview of the IAOP Career Mapping Initiative, compensation results and discussion points from the IAOP Career Mapping Phase III Initiative, as well as the human resources perspective of the data and what it means to business executives. This valuable discussion gave participants ideas on how to create their personal strategies or build on what they’ve started!

Webinar Held - Thursday, July 17, 2008

The second Global Human Capital Chapter webinar was held on Thursday, July 17, 2008.  Co-chairs Lori Blackman of DNL Global and Julia Santos of Johnson & Johnson moderated a discussion entitled “A Balanced Talent Portfolio.”  Panelists who contributed to the discussion were Chris Disher of Chris Disher & Associates, Denis Picard of Alvarez & Marsal and Chris Nuttall of PA Consulting.

The idea of a balanced financial portfolio is one we have all longed for, far before we had money to balance!  Over the past few years, the concept of balancing a corporation’s global sourcing portfolio has been a prominent conference topic.  Our expert panelists discussed the benefits of balancing local and non-local perspectives, on-site and off-site locations, industry and outsourcing experience and a multitude of other variables and considerations as one designs his team and career progression.  Concepts were explored on a macro, micro and individual level leading to very thought provoking conversation!
