An educational and celebratory event of top performing practices at KP
The “sold out” house of conference participants were welcomed to Southern California by Dr. Nirav Shah, challenging us to reach for 2 new principles: “standardization is innovation“ and “quality is measured by speed.” AFL-CIO Secretary Treasurer Liz Shuler and Utility Workers Union National President Michael Langford described labor’s role in both creating and implementing the future workplace. Each KP regional workforce committee displayed their Workforce of the Future accomplishments within this first year of National Agreement implementation. Diane Antishin, DTE Energy, argued by DTE’s example for a workforce framework that not only pushed results in company efficiency and effectiveness but also meet the needs of union members and the community. Dr. Nolan Chang and Annie Russell described SCPMG’s innovation journey. Dr. Chang provocated the audience to work in teams, not silos. A KP employee panel facilitated by KP HR VP Dawn Bading and supported by the expertise of Martha Deevy, Stanford Center on Longevity, focused on the common interests of Millennials, GenXers and Baby Boomers. Conference bright spots are now highlighted on this site.
We can’t wait to see what progress the KP regional committees will highlight next year!
We look forward to seeing you at the 2017 Workforce of the Future conference,
