The Women’s Bureau, U.S. Department of Labor, Flex Options Project presents:

"How Can My Company Build a Flexible Work Culture?"

Hosted by Camp Dresser McKee at CDM World Headquarters near Kendall Square

Workplace flexibility options such as non-traditional work hours, working from home, and many others continue to spread throughout organizations.

In an environment of competitive challenges, a shrinking workforce and changing worker priorities, strategic flexibility is a business imperative that yields clear, positive business outcomes such as increased revenue and employee productivity, retention and engagement.

Companies that establish an effective, long-term flexibility strategy that aligns the priorities of the business with those of the people will leap ahead of their competition.

Join us for this hands-on, interactive session with a nationally recognized flexibility expert and local colleagues featuring:

• Compelling research on why flexibility is a business imperative
• Effective approaches to building organizational buy-in and ownership among leaders
• Strategies for overcoming common roadblocks to success
• Opportunities to exchange experiences and problem solve with colleagues

This event is meant for companies of ten or more employees. Participants can be Human Resources or line managers, Directors, Vice Presidents and other company representatives who want to learn how to strategically build a flexible work culture in their organizations.
