THE HR plus EDGE INTRODUCTION

Your People should be your competitive edge! Engaging and retaining qualified employees in a high stress environment or managing organizational changes to thrive through the downturn are key challenges facing the non-profit sector today. Improved human resource management is fundamental to helping nonprofits sustain the personnel and strategies needed to successfully deliver high-quality programs and services.

Consider The HR PLUS Edge, designed for agencies who need a practical approach, fast HR results, and flexibility. Customize your own HR solutions and learning through needs based consulting, on-line education, and HR tools and support on your terms.

At the end of The HR PLUS Edge each organization will have:

• Motivated staff delivering high quality programs and services
• Knowledge of your HR strengths and improvement opportunities
• Enhanced targeted HR practices
• Broader or deeper HR and Management knowledge
• A path forward to sustain your HR development work

Participants will have the necessary HR resources in place for them to be able to reach their larger organizational goals.

Addressing these complex issues requires collaborative effort from all stakeholders – agencies, governments, funders and capacity builders. The HR PLUS Edge pilot program is jointly funded by: The Calgary Foundation, The City of Calgary FCSS, the United Way of Calgary and Area, the Government of Canada and the Government of Alberta in partnership with The Calgary HR Initiative of the Calgary Chamber of Voluntary Organizations.
