    Coffee Chat >>> Employer Responsibility and 2023 Federal Health Insurance Program Changes – Meet our local Health Insurance Navigators!

    All BadgerCare/Medicaid/CHIP members will need to renew their benefits sometime between June 2023 and May 2024 due to the end of the federally mandated “continuous eligibility”. This could result in up to 300,000 people in Wisconsin losing their health insurance coverage! It is estimated that about 60% of people who lose this coverage will have an option of employer-sponsored health coverage, and they are allowed a 60-day special enrollment for this qualifying life event. Workforce Connections’ licensed Health Insurance Navigators will explain all options available to help your effected employees through this transition and avoid losing healthcare coverage.

    This event is free, but registration is required for access to the Teams meeting link.

    This is a hybrid event. In-person attendees will meet at Belle Square (232 3rd Street North, La Crosse, WI). Enter the doors at the corner of 3rd Street and Vine Street.

    Attracting and retaining talent is one of the top priorities of the HR community. Seeing how your benefit offerings stack up vs others can help you put together a total rewards package that accomplishes this priority. There are many different benchmarks out there and knowing which are relevant to you is and why is helpful. We will explore several benchmarks for benefits during this session.

    During this meeting, the speaker will help us:

    • Understand the importance of benchmarking
    • Understand if national, local, or both are relevant to your business
    • Understand how you stack up

      Alan’s dynamic program is built around the two years of planning and two months of climbing that went into making the goal of reaching the summit of Mount Everest a reality for Alan and three members of his immediate family. It is an engaging visual and educational journey packed with tools, strategies and innovative ideas that human resources professionals can put into action to make positive changes in their professional and personal journeys. Alan puts specific emphasis on maintaining a future mindset, effective collaboration, adapting to change, developing mutual goals, overcoming adversity, empowering others, and developing trust in professional relationships.

      • Adapt to chaining environments using agile methodologies
      • Manage risk and determine response strategies
      • Empower employees to make informed decisions
      • Maintain a future mindset

      Alan is an international speaker, author and performance coach who is passionate about leadership and reaching new heights in all that we do! His unique philosophy of life revolves around empowering people and embracing an agile mentality focused on goals and results. By understanding what drives and motivates us, we are able to cultivate more innovative and effective ways of thinking and taking action.

      Alan holds a degree in engineering from Queen’s University and a masters in psychology from Adler University, giving him a well-balanced approach to the outer and inner challenges we all face. Alan has worked internationally with large organizations as a professional engineer and project manager developing patents and solutions to complex challenges in the mining and metals industry. Living and working abroad has given him the opportunity to deepen his understanding of individual and team challenges, better appreciate cultural diversity and successfully adapt to different organizational structures.

      Building experience through a lifestyle of adventure and challenge, in the spring of 2008 Alan embarked on the journey of a lifetime and set a world record on Mount Everest along with three members of his immediate family. It was a two-month expedition through some of the most exciting yet terrifying conditions imaginable and their success demanded an unwavering perseverance and resilience in the face of adversity. Alan delivers a number of exciting presentations and training programs designed to help individuals, team members and organizations reach new heights in the way we think and the actions we take in order to achieve breakthrough performance.

      In our efforts to conquer every ‘people’ challenge facing today’s organizations, is HR failing to recognize the challenges, opportunities and unintended consequences of our actions or inactions.

      In this session - Tina Marie will highlight the growing need for HR to recognize in order for us to continue to impact and support our stakeholders – we need to listen to our own advice and shift from Performance Improvement Processes to People Inspired Processes.

      During this meeting, the speaker will help us:

      • Boundaries, Isolation, Standards and Processes – opportunities and barriers to becoming the HR department we all want to work for.
      • Are you practicing HR by “living by exception” or “living by example” when it comes to HR activities and your own professional development?
      • HR are People too! – why we often neglect our own needs for the sake of others.
