Laws are changing and new laws are passing. The Coronavirus crisis is causing employers to ask questions.  Can I layoff employees?  What is a furlough?  What questions can I ask of employees that come to work?  What if employees don't want to come to work?  We will answer these questions and many more...and of course, we talk about cocktails.

As a business owner or executive, have you thought your organization needed more support in Human Resources? But you don't need a full-time HR professional?  You can just let the Office Manager handle it, right?  No, the CFO.  No, no, the COO.  We will discuss the necessity for organizations of all sizes to have access to a trained HR professional...and we have fun while doing it.
