Sobel & Co. Human Resource Roundtable Series
|
Two years ago, the Sobel & Co. Employee Benefit Plan Audit Practice Group conducted a focus group comprised of business consultants, CFOs, Plan Administrators and Human Resource professionals, to decide how the firm could add more value for clients, specifically those with responsibilities in the employee benefit area. The participants indicated a need for an informal program that would provide access to ideas and topics that impact them on a regular basis as well as giving them the opportunity to interact with their peers in a noncompetitive format.
The result of this important discussion was the formation of the Sobel & Co. Human Resource Roundtable program. Meeting three to four times a year, this program draws on the established expertise of both outside speakers and presenters from Sobel & Co. who offer insights and ideas on topics that are timely and relevant for this audience. Over breakfast, and throughout the presentation, participants are encouraged to network with each other and share the power of their collective insights.
We are proud of the growing success of this program and look forward to attracting more attendees as it continues to add value and build momentum.
The next event will be held on September 25, 2012 at Sobel & Co. in Livingston form 8:00 - 10:00 a.m. Mark your calendars now and stay tuned for details on the topic for this coming event!
