This year’s topics will set the stage for what is sure to be a noteworthy event. The 2015 Roundtable Organizing Committee met in December to help provide input and select hot topics that human resource professionals, managers, university/college staff and associations within the agriculture industry are currently facing. Some of this year’s topics include:

  • Is Cultural Fit Really that Important?
  • Performance Management in our Industry
  • Integrating Analytics into Recruiting
  • Handling Difficult Conversations in Agriculture
  • Redefining Diversity Recruitment

Beyond the traditional educational sessions, the Organizing Committee has planned another year of fun, social events to get in plenty of networking, including a tour of Monsanto, Welcome Reception, Table Topics Breakfast, Networking Dinner and Best Practices Roundtable Discussion Breakfast. Some of the optional activities require registration in advance as space is limited. 

New to this year’s Roundtable is a Military Recruitment add-on workshop focusing on the ins and outs of recruiting military talent into your organization.
