Venue: Meeting Room 8.1, Local Government House, Smith Square, Westminster, London, SW1P 3HZ
Most organisations realise that their future success lies in the strength and depth of the talent at their disposal. It is therefore critical that during periods of global economic turbulence organisations continue to prioritise strategies and activities which promote the development and retention of talent. To get the best from people and deliver business results organisations require high performing teams and individuals.
Solutions to developing and retaining talent should be twofold - to identify talent and engage the employee. High levels of engagement will help to maximise potential and is key to effective development. Investing in development and career management will also positively impact on talent retention.
This seminar will explore how organisations are responding today and indicate useful talent management tools and techniques. It will also give you the opportunity to network with our expert speakers and fellow HR professionals.
