What's the # 1 expense item for almost every California employer? People. And if your workforce is productive, those workers are also your # 1 asset and the primary source of your revenues and profits. So, if you can't measure, track, and explain how your workers contribute to the bottom line, you're not in control of your most important resource—and you're not demonstrating the value of this resource to your CEO.

Measuring the true value of human capital is a puzzle that perplexes experienced employers and HR professionals alike. But to survive in the current economic climate, you must learn how to master the metrics that capture your workforce's return on investment for the entire organization. Until you can produce solid, verifiable numbers that prove your worth to C-level executives and leaders, you may never gain the respect and leverage you deserve as an HR professional.

You'll learn the practical steps required for capturing the dollar value of your HR programs during this Dec. 19 audio conference. Our expert speaker—a leading authority on HR ROI—will walk you through the specific metrics you should calculate and track for your workforce, and how to speak the language of numbers required to demonstrate your worth in bottom-line terms. Plus, you'll have the chance to ask your own ROI questions (via email, or live on the phone) for a quick answer from our speaker.

You and your colleagues will learn:

• Why it's absolutely critical, in today's tough economy, to place bottom-line values on what you do in HR
• The huge differences between tracking HR activity and measuring HR value
• How you can analyze the value of your HR efforts today as a baseline for future growth
• The most reliable methodologies you should follow to measure HR ROI—in plain English, what to benchmark and how to measure it
• The steps should take ASAP to begin communicating your HR numbers to your organization's top leaders and executives
• How you can use your data to plan future workplace programs and improve your employees' productivity
• The most common mistakes employers make when measuring HR ROI—and how you can avoid repeating those errors
