Assume the role of an HR consultant and prepare a 12–18 slide PowerPoint presentation giving leadership a roadmap for complying with employee relations laws and policies. Create a PowerPoint presentation, using detailed speaker notes or supplemental audio, that includes the following:

• Describe best practices that promote positive employee relations and legal compliance.
  • Identify five HR practices, including one ADR (alternative dispute resolution) technique and one labor relations practice.
  • Identify employment laws and regulations that may impact the best practices.
• Identify HR's role in building a diverse and inclusive workplace environment.
  • Explain strategies for developing an employee psychological contract.
  • List ways that organizations can use these to promote communication and manage expectations.
• Explain cultural, demographic, and social impacts on performance management.
• Explain best practices that effectively manage workplace disputes.
• Examine best practices that improve relationships between unions and organizational leadership.
  • How do these practices promote HR as a strategic employee relations partner?
• Describe communication strategies for explaining and implementing workplace best practices.
  • How can organizations commit to developing positive employee relations? What active strategies should they employ?

Use 5–6 relevant and credible scholarly or professional resources such as The Wall Street Journal in your presentation.

Important Note: Select a PowerPoint template appropriate for a professional presentation. In addition to the content of the slides, include the supporting narrative in the speaker notes. Slide content should support your main points and ideas. Do not overbuild your slides; information that supports your main slide content should appear at the lower portion of each slide as speaker notes.
