Guest Speaker:
Michele Haugh
As organizations face economic pressure, AI disruption, and increasing executive scrutiny, HR leaders must move beyond activity-based metrics and demonstrate measurable business impact. This session explores how HR can align people strategy to organizational outcomes using outcome-based goal frameworks, AI-enabled productivity, and credible executive communication practices.
Participants will learn how to translate people initiatives into business-rooted language that resonates with CEOs and CFOs, implement outcome-driven performance systems such as OKRs, and strengthen executive influence through structured communication tools.
This session is designed for HR professionals seeking to elevate their strategic impact and align HR initiatives directly to ROI.
Speaker Bio:
Michele says, "I’ve been the lonely, solo HR professional trying to accomplish all the things for my organization – so I know exactly how overwhelming and stressful it can be to prioritize your employee engagement and development.
Now, with over 20 years of HR and leadership experience, I help employee-focused CEOs, leaders, and HR professionals create effective, employee-centered organizations. We created EarlyEngage to lift up and support small companies and people leaders to provide the "big company" style engagement solutions small businesses didn't think they could afford.
One thing I know: A creative, personalized solution is always the most effective.
Outside of work, you’ll find me: Dreaming of my next travel adventure with my family and playing with my two adorable miniature schnauzers Beau and Daisy."
