WAYNE, PA--(Marketwire - Jun 9, 2011) - Kenexa (
Globalization, shortened product cycles, new technologies and the recovering economy have created new business challenges. In this environment, what is the key to creating an enduring, globalized, high-performing business? The answer is in people. While executives know that innovation, product leadership and customer service are keys to success, they also know that without the right people, none of these strategies can succeed.
During the webinar, the presenters will share case examples of companies that have used the science and strategy of fit to improve sales, customer service, business growth and overall employee satisfaction.
