Why You Should Attend?
The War for Talent is escalating, and the ramifi cations can be felt across industry segments in both developed and emerging economies. Leaders increasingly worry about the strength of their talent pipeline, and often this ball lands in the Human Resources department’s court. There is an increasing pressure on HR leaders to craft talent strategies in line with the business agenda. This has, in the past, lead to a flurry of new programs, practices and processes to help organisations attract, retain and develop talent; yet for all the increasing sophistication of talent management practices, the situation continues to deteriorate. In reality, reactive programs and practices can only do a little in the absence of well researched strategy. There is an increasing acceptance that HR needs to bring a stronger strategic orientation to the boardroom. At a minimum, an orientation which addresses the unquestionable shifts in every organization’s talent reality. In specific, there are four trends which every talent strategist must increasingly acknowledge, and provide for –
