Exploring how to improve, nurture and prove the people culture to employees, Fouad also will share how Ernst & Young has successfully built a consistent culture around the world.
Peter Goerke, Group Head of Human Resources for Zurich Insurance Company Ltd., will present “Leveraging your employer promise to attract, engage and retain talent,” which will address how to clearly articulate the employer promise and deliver on it to create the right environment for long-term success. With responsibility for creating an engaged employee population at Zurich, an insurance-based financial services provider with 60,000 employees, Goerke knows how to enhance employee engagement through an integrated talent management platform, demonstration of the company’s core values, active management of the company’s brand and a focus on global development opportunities.
The fifth annual Kenexa World Conference promises to transform HR through outliers, helping organizations move beyond potential to drive business performance. To reveal true human potential to improve business results, companies must identify and nurture high performers and create the right environment for them to thrive. Attendees of the conference will come to understand how the right individuals in the right environment lead to ultimate success.
