Sessions

Workplace Application: Attend this high-energy, engaging presentation and learn practical advice you can take back to the office to incorporate flexibility as part of your talent management strategy.

This new economy is forcing organizations to think differently about their talent management (TM) strategies.  Studies show that as much as 81% of your workforce may be looking for other opportunities. The engagement and retention of your top talent is at risk which directly impacts the success and sustainability of your organization.  There may be many strategies to choose from but which one will have the greatest impact without breaking your budget?   The answer is flexibility.  Join Teresa Hopke as she outlines the steps for making flexibility an integral part of your TM strategy.   Hear first-hand how she fully integrated flex and talent management in her previous role as the head of Talent Management at the fifth largest accounting firm in the country in order to evolve the culture and create an award winning workplace.   She’ll share:

• Why it makes sense to embed flex within a TM strategy rather than a stand-alone focus;
• Strategies for integrating flex into each specific area of TM;
• Stories and best practices of top-performing companies that are embedding flex into their Talent Management strategies; and
• Best ways to covertly change the culture of flex by leveraging TM strategies.
