Happy Father\u2019s Day to all fathers, especially His Excellency, President Williams, who is a father to me.\u00a0 May the Lord continue to Bless you richly with wisdom, patience, love, peace and love as you shape the lives of your children positively.<\/p>\n

This week, I am in Chicago attending the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) 65th Annual Conference and Exposition.\u00a0 This conference is for me a \u201cmust-attend\u201d as part of my continuing education program.\u00a0\u00a0 This is the fifth year a delegation from Dominica is attending.\u00a0 This year seven of us are in Chicago and this is the biggest delegation so far.\u00a0 I have been aiming for a minimum of ten however this goal has not yet been met.\u00a0 Hopefully next year, this goal will be met and exceeded as we revive the HR Professional Association of Dominica.\u00a0 We are also aiming to become a SHRM Forum Partner.\u00a0 We need a minimum of twenty-five HR Professionals as registered SHRM members.\u00a0 We have secured a reduced rate to encourage membership. This year, more than 15,000 HR professionals from 86 countries around the world have converged to be part of this event, to learn about the new trends in HR, share and network with others.\u00a0 I love the energy of the conference and I always leave renewed, reinvigorated, more enlightened and inspired.<\/p>\n

In previous articles, I have spoken about the importance of continued education and the need to network.\u00a0 This is important in whatever discipline one belongs, and I want to encourage you to make a commitment to this, even if you have to pay for yourself.\u00a0 I tell you, investment in yourself is one investment that cannot go wrong.\u00a0 The returns are more than any other investment you will ever make and it is always positive.<\/p>\n

This year, Hilary Clinton, former US Secretary of State and US Presidential Candidate and Fareed Zakaria, Editor at Large for Time Magazine and host of CNN\u2019s \u201cFareed Zakaria GPS,\u201d were the featured speakers at the Opening.\u00a0 Zakaria\u2019s message was one of hope.\u00a0 Zakaria reminded us that there is always recovery though it is difficult to see when one is in the middle of hard times going through difficult, challenging times.\u00a0 He argued that three forces, political stability, economic convergence and technological connectivity have shaped and changed the world we live in, and the \u201crise of the rest of the world\u201d is what will shape the world.\u00a0 This is because the West is no longer leading GDP growth.\u00a0 The IMF predicts that in the next ten years, only the US from the West will be in the top ten growth nations and by 2018, the emerging nations will account for 56% of worldwide growth.<\/p>\n

He stated that every period of recession, the lag between GDP recovery and jobs recovery lengthens, and that the current timeframe is 65 months (five and a half years).\u00a0 This is because companies are able to do more with less people and have greater access to resources worldwide.\u00a0 The great challenge for the western world and in general the world is the harnessing and unlocking of human capital.\u00a0 Learning, he opines is a lifelong occupation and the twenty-first century is going to be the \u201cage of human capital.\u201d\u00a0 He concluded that we are living in extra-ordinary times, challenging times but we would not and should not want to change these times.\u00a0 Truly a message of hope that even in these times opportunities exist.\u00a0\u00a0 We have to be present, to be open and willing to see and grasp the opportunities that exist.<\/p>\n

Hilary Clinton spoke about the five lessons learnt in problem solving and leadership while serving as US Secretary of State.\u00a0 They are:
\n1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Good decisions are based on evidence not ideology.\u00a0 She said that if one does not make decisions based on the facts, one goes off-track.\u00a0 This resonated for one of the things I say often and I tell leaders and managers is to get the facts, verify the facts are accurate and then make your decision.\u00a0 The chances of error are slimmer and even if it turns out later to not be the best decision, one can go back to show that at the time, without the benefit of hindsight, and given the facts this was the best decision.
\n2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Leadership is a team sport, where the good of the organisation has to come above personal and self-interest.\u00a0 She said many people ask her about her decision to serve as Secretary of State in President Obama\u2019s cabinet when they were such bitter rivals on the presidential electoral campaign.\u00a0\u00a0 She explained that it was their commitment to what was in the best interest of the US rather than their person interests that led the President to ask her to serve as Secretary of State and her decision to agree.\u00a0 She told us that this decision led her to realise that she loves the President, and he said it best when in describing their partnership he said, \u201cwe went from a team of rivals to an unrivalled team.\u201d Such political maturity.\u00a0 Interestingly, the morning of her speech, my niece-in-law, Juana Williams and I, were discussing that decision, and wondered what made her accept.\u00a0 We both thought that she should not have accepted and Juana felt that if she truly wanted to run for President in 2016, she should have not and used the time to prepare.
\n3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 You can\u2019t win, if you don\u2019t show up.\u00a0 This is what I have advocated.\u00a0 You have to lead by example.\u00a0 She says it is not always easy but one has to keep showing up.\u00a0 This she says was what was behind her visit to 112 countries, during her tenure, the most travelled US Secretary of State to date.
\n4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A whisper may be more effective than a shout.\u00a0 This is tantamount to the proverb that \u201ca soft word turneth away wrath.\u201d\u00a0 She says the focus has to be on building and strengthening relationships as this is the real way of building change.\u00a0 Sometimes, we have to allow people to walk away with dignity, \u201csaving face\u201d.
\n5.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Follow the trendline and not the headline.\u00a0 Focus on the long-term goals and interests\/needs of the organisation and not the short-term.\u00a0 This is where the importance of values are highlighted for this will be the ultimate decision-maker.\u00a0 The deal breaker are our values.<\/p>\n

She gave three other lessons in decision-making:
\n1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Dare to compete and be willing to take risks
\n2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Take criticisms seriously but not personally
\n3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Learn and understand different cultural cues.<\/p>\n

She was awesome.\u00a0 As the Americans would say, \u201cshe rocked!\u201d<\/p>\n
