Best Practices in Talent Management: WInning the War for Talent, This Tuesday

By all accounts, the US workforce will have a shortage of about 14 million educated workers by 2020. That's not the end of the bad news. The high school dropout rate is increasing. Boomers are retiring in droves. The most talented individuals don't even want traditional jobs anymore. Will you be on the winning side of this impending war for talent?

Successful organizations are preparing by dramatically changing the ways they recruit college graduates, train and retain promising talent, capture the knowledge of experienced workers, and change traditional job structures to accommodate employees who can afford to be choosy about when and where they work.

Are you using social networking sites, learning to manage virtual teams, creating seasonal or transitional jobs, helping employees to meet their needs for self-actualization and lifestyle balance, and creating new spaces to encourage socialization and collaboration? Listen up: your competition is doing all of these things, and more. You'll learn about these initiatives and more in this eye-opening and practical webinar.
