TOPIC: Benefits Alignment:  The "New" Normal

Session Description: 
With the financial realities of public and private entities, it is increasingly important to align benefits design and financing with workforce planning and total compensation, not to mention the Affordable Care Act.  This session will review key considerations looking ahead, and then explore opportunities, strategies and metrics around a more holistic, aligned approach to the design, financing and management of benefits. 

Learning Objectives: 
1. Examine how key elements from the current environment will drive future
    strategy.
2. Discuss a process by which you can better identify, and quantify, an overall total
    rewards and benefits philosophy, along with targeted areas for change.
3. Explore how to methodically progress toward aligning benefits within that
    philosophy.
