About the Class
Flex Your Recruiting: How to Attract Talent and Improve Your Employer Brand
We love where we work and want to attract the best people to join our team. Yet, seven in ten employers struggle to find workers with the right technical skills and human capabilities. Couple that with the silver tsunami of older workers retiring and high turnover rates, and you have the perfect storm of talent issues. Do you struggle to recruit and retain the right talent? You’re certainly not alone.
In this session, we’ll consider the core strategies of talent attraction: employer branding, recruitment marketing, and organizational culture. Then, we’ll discuss how generational differences, economic conditions, and competition impact talent acquisition. We’ll show you how to find and attract people with interpersonal skills like leadership, empathy, adaptability, and advanced cognitive skills like critical thinking, project management, and decision-making. You’ll leave this session with a fresh talent attraction plan.
