Join us for a fun filled eve at SIOP 2018
Dear Friends,
​
FIVE YEARS! Yes - it was in May 2014 that COSI was launched, during the SIOP conference in Hawaii. Since it was SIOP that laid the foundation for COSI, we have returned each year to it with a social event for our members and friends.
​
This year promises to be a continuation - and an expansion, if we dare to hope! - of this lovely community we have built over the last five years. Those of you who are planning to attend SIOP in Chicago, please come to our social event (details below and in the attached invite).
COSI Reception at SIOP hosted by Three Fish Consulting (thank you!).
​
Date: April 19 (Thursday)
Venue: Room Grant Park, at the Sheraton Grand Hotel (Chicago)
Time: 7 p.m.-9 p.m.
​
This will be a great opportunity for us to connect with each other, have some fun and partake in some libations and conversations! Please RSVP using this link and also feel free to share the attached invitation with others who are interested in becoming a part of the COSI movement for evidence-based management in India!

Webinar: Scientific evidence convincingly demonstrates the positive impact of human resource management (HRM) investments on organizational performance. However, HR practitioners and line managers seeking performance gains are likely to rely on anecdotes and 'flavors of the month' for guidance regarding optimally investing in HRM practices and processes. This webinar will help HR professionals, managers, and organizational-psychology students and scholars understand the mechanisms underlying the linkage between various HRM investments and business performance. Prof. Mahesh Subramony will describe the science by linking HRM with performance and provide practical guidelines for putting this knowledge to use.
