Francis Wade, President of Framework Consulting, will be speaking at the upcoming HRMAJ conference on November 16-19 at the Sunset Jamaica Grande Resort and Spa, Ocho Rios, Jamaica, on the topic: Using Technology on the Cutting Edge to Create Cross-Regional Networks.
Framework Consulting is pleased to announce the launch of CaribHRNews, a Squidoo-hosted aggregator of the most recent internet-based news related to the Human Resources profession.
On the company website, the page may be accessed from the link on each page titled CaribHRForum.
President Francis Wade noted “We wanted a single place to find all the information related to the Human Resource industry and after months of searching for viable solution we found one that would not require intensive manual effort.”
The price to use the service is free to professionals, and the cost of its maintenance is being underwritten by Framework Consulting.
Framework Consulting is conducting a follow-up study to the Caribbean Acquisition Project (CAP), focusing on the relationship between Trinidadian executives and Jamaican workers.
Our firm recently published a report from the Caribbean Acquisition Project (CAP) Phase 1, available at www.downloads.fwconsulting.com, for which the data was collected in 2001-2. In the research we did then it was interesting to find that most of the Trinidadian executives working in Jamaica were surprised by the cultural differences that they found.
Now, in 2006, we are keen to update our knowledge and would like to conduct phone interviews with Trinidadian executives (wherever they might be) who are willing to share insights about their experience living and working in Jamaica.
For further information, contact Francis Wade at Framework Consulting, [email protected] or 876-880-8653.
