DETAILS:  Many companies find themselves adapting their HR strategies to
          fit with the best practices traditionally provided by human
          resources and payroll solutions. However, these best practices
          often do not fit with an organization's business objectives.
          Ill-suited processes can be detrimental to an organization's
          bottom-line, especially in these turbulent economic times when
          optimizing costs and procedures is crucial. In this session,
          Mitschke-Collande will examine how HR can develop a truly global
          HR strategy that is complemented by technology infrastructure,
          rather dictated by it. Attendees will learn how to determine the
          best Global HR strategies for their organizations and how to
          choose vendors and solutions that can help them achieve their
          business goals in the current global market.

          Company representatives will also be on hand to discuss details
          of its new "Free HR" offering. Patersons is now offering a free
          version of its Global HR Software for purchasers of Patersons
          International Payroll Solution. The software includes Patersons
          HR Suite, leave management, employee asset management and
          standard reports.
