HR Transformation Programme course timetable
January 2025
Thu 16 |
Have you heard of myHR but are not really sure what it’s about? Join this short session, suitable for employees across all staff groups and areas of the University, to find out about the HR Transformation Programme, the reasons for change and the benefits that myHR, our new HR and Payroll system, will bring for us all. After an introduction to the programme, a short demo will show you around myHR from the point of view of an employee and as a manager of others. Feedback includes “It all looked very intuitive and easy to use” and “I've worked in six different parts of the Uni and every single one had a different system for recording annual leave… I’m looking forward to one place to log in and see my leave and my teams leave”. You can also visit HR Transformation Programme to read more about the programme, including some Frequently Asked Questions and see HRTP Yammer/Viva Engage for latest news and updates. Please Note: Once you have booked on the course, click on Add to Calendar to start the process to import the course appointment into your calendar, including the Teams link you will need on the day. |

During change we often focus on what will be delivered and if it will be right for the job, but we often focus less on the need to support, reassure, and motivate those impacted by change – the people side of change. This short session for staff with people-management responsibilities (including PIs, supervisors and team leads) will explore approaches to the people side of change in the context of the University. Whilst high-level sponsorship provides senior leadership and the rationale for change, research shows that direct line managers have the most influence on how their team respond to change by helping to support people in understanding, preparing for, and adopting changes in working life and practice. “Change happens one person at a time.” Prosci.com. Using the HR Transformation Programme and the introduction of myHR as an example, we will look at how the approaches we are using to support colleagues across the University can be applied to the changes you may be leading in your team or area. Join us to consider skills and techniques for supporting people through change, using consistent language to help build our individual and collective change capability, for the everyday changes and for the more significant ones. Please Note: Once you have booked on the course, click on Add to Calendar to start the process to import the course appointment into your calendar. This contains the link to the MS Teams course meeting under Joining Instructions that you will use to join on the day of the course. |
