WAYNE, Pa. (Jan. 24, 2012) - Billy Beane, the vice
president and general manager of the Oakland Athletics,
whose unique management approach was detailed in the
bestselling book "Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair
Game," discusses how he transformed his organization using
out-of-the-box thinking at an upcoming Kenexa-sponsored
seminar on business performance.
Kenexa (NYSE: KNXA) is a global provider of business
solutions for human resources. The seminar titled, "Helping
You Translate Employee Feedback into Business Performance,"
will be held Jan. 31 at the New York Stock Exchange from 10
a.m. until 3 p.m. EST.
Beane motivated members of the Oakland A's organization to
levels of success very few believed were attainable. He was
named the A's GM following the 1997 season, and took a
management approach of identifying and using undervalued
assets to create and sustain a competitive advantage.
Beane is just one real-life example of how a top leader
turned an organization around during tough times. Other
speakers at the seminar include Charles Baldwin, executive
vice president and chief administrative officer at
Cabela's. Baldwin will discuss how the use of assessments
and surveys increased employee engagement and helped the
outdoor retailer outperform goals in an economic
downturn.
Bill Erickson, chairman emeritus and executive vice
president of Kenexa, will also present new ways of thinking
about talent to help businesses thrive.
