What I have Learned along UVA HR's Transformation Journey
Balancing its historical legacy while embracing a radical HR transformation, the University of Virginia is positioning itself for its 3rd century and the workforce of the future. The setting is this: 3 distinct cultures within academia and healthcare with over 22,000 employees, as many students, 300+ HR processes, 280 HR employees spread throughout 85 HR units using 72+ HR systems (including 6 learning management systems). Add to this mix the turnover among three of four senior-most leaders whereas HR leadership comprises 4 “newbies” and 2 “veterans.”
In this setting, UVA HR’s leaders had to align culture, create and staff a new organizational structure, and implement a new cloud-based technology that would dramatically recreate the employment experience. And develop a brand new mission, vision, set of values, strategy, branding, messaging – and build a new website!
Michael will discuss the challenges faced and the strategies employed to navigate the transformation:
? A 3-pronged framework for leaders and managers to build their teams
? Three attributes necessary for employees to find meaning and engagement in their work
? Three buckets of motivators for employees
? Four things HR professionals should focus on to build credibility during times of change
