SUMMARY:3 Questions to Answer Before the 2027 Budget Meeting
DESCRIPTION:\nAre you bringing workforce data to the budget meeting, or are you bringing business insights?\nAs organizations prepare for 2027, HR and Total Rewards leaders need to look beyond salary budgets and headcount projections. Economic signals, labor market shifts, and changing workforce demographics all influence what it will take to attract, retain, and motivate talent.\nJoin Laura Morgan, CCP, Managing Partner of MorganHR, and Alice Kirchhoff, Marketing Director at Bettercomp, for a practical conversation about three questions every HR leader should be prepared to answer.\n1. Which critical roles will cost more to hire in 2027?\nNot every role will experience the same market pressure. Learn how to identify where compensation demands may increase, recognize emerging talent shortages, and use market intelligence to make more informed hiring and budget decisions.\n2. What do U3 vs. U6 unemployment rates and demographic shifts mean for hiring?\nThe headline unemployment rate doesn’t tell the whole story. Laura will explore how broader labor market indicators, workforce participation, and demographic changes can reveal hidden challenges and opportunities for employers.\n3. How do you speak to the numbers, not just report them?\nData alone doesn’t drive decisions. Using concepts from MorganHR’s Economic Decoder Ring, Laura will connect economic signals to the business decisions HR leaders face every day.\nLearn how to translate workforce and compensation data into a business narrative that connects talent availability, labor costs, productivity, and organizational priorities.\nThe goal? Walk into your 2027 budget conversations ready to explain not only what the numbers say, but what they mean for your business.\nFeaturing:\n\nLaura Morgan, CCP | Managing Partner, MorganHR\nAlice Kirchhoff | Marketing Director, Bettercomp\n\nTuesday, November 17, 2026\n12:00 PM ET | 9:00 AM PT\nThe best part – It’s Free!\nREGISTER HERE \n
