HR Zoomers (Gen Z) to Boomers will learn how to determine if consulting is for them what business steps they need to take to start an HR practice. 

COVID, political upheaval, DEI changed how people define careers. The impact is greater for women. The labor force participation rate of women dropped during early COVID and hasn't returned. Women may struggle more with balancing work and family. One solution for HR pros is consulting. This session will use audience participation and the speaker's 19 years of experience to explore competencies needed as well as the steps you should take to build a consulting practice.

Learning Objectives:

  • Hear how consulting has grown due to changing definitions of work for women and agility needs of organizations.
  • Discover the advantages and challenges inherent in a consulting career for women in particular.
  • Learn the nature of consulting and the personal traits and competencies needed to be successful.
  • Discuss the business plans and steps you should take to build your HR consulting practice.
