2. THE CHANGE PROCESS
SHRM Vermont
Conference
09/10/2015
The CEO is talking “Culture Change”
The CEO is not talking “Culture Change”
HR processes are old/incomplete/… “missing”
Old habits and community culture are rampant
The “HR Team” is just me!
5
THE SCENARIO: DOES THIS RESONATE?
…we are talking about change management
6
REGARDLESS OF THE IMPETUS…
Define what you are going to STOP, what you are going to START, and what you are going to CONTINUE doing;
Have a clearly articulated vision;
Be about behaviors, not words;
Be managed over an extended time period.

4. ONE STORY OF CHANGE
SHRM Vermont
Conference
09/10/2015
CVHHH has 213 employees, the third largest Home Health agency in Vermont
New HR Director replacing 21-year retiree
Agency Strategic Plan activated
HR Strategic Plan developed but not activated
CEO speaking to the need for “Culture Change”
22
CONTEXT
I. Top three organization pressure points identified by CEO:
High cost of Workers Compensation,
Haphazard recruitment protocols, &
Lack of HR involvement in Agency operations
23
WHERE TO START?
II. Address all three by improving Human Resources accountability and consistency
24
HOW TO START?
Employee safety is linked to employee retention and satisfaction - which is linked to workers compensation premiums.
1. Activate Employee Safety Committee
2. Implement post-offer/pre-employment physical examinations for new hires
3. Improve Employee Incident Reporting
4. Continuous safety alerts for all employees
25
STEP ONE
Employee HR management is linked to recruitment and retention by:
1. Update application and screening procedures,
2. Increase involvement of supervisors, &
3. Update employee handbook and HR policy manual to improve consistency
26
STEP TWO
Changing Human Resources attitude to a “can-do” department that is always thinking 30, 90, 360 days ahead
1. Develop first protocols for employee discipline
2. Develop employee satisfaction survey
3. Address supervisor competency (most difficult lift, but will have the most impact)
27
STEP THREE
A collection of competencies that together define successful performance in a particular job, job group, and/or work setting, etc.
