LIVE ONLY! Talent in the Future of Work: Futureproof Your Workforce

Workplace Application:
Explore how to continuously transform work and the workforce in the future of work to create superior business and workforce outcomes. 

New technologies, changing workforce expectations, expanding workforce options beyond balance sheet employees, and globalization are fundamentally changing work faster than ever before. Organizations try automation for efficiencies; tap into a broader workforce ecosystem of contractors, consultants, gig workers, and crowdsourcing, test remote workforce scenarios and other flexible arrangement, attempt reskilling their workforce; and invest heavily in attracting perceived skills, but often lack a cohesive strategy and approach to accomplish business goals. Traditional concepts of talent strategy, talent management and workforce planning only partially address these issues. A more holistic, agile, and responsive approach is needed to seize opportunities in this new reality. We will provide a research-based guide to business practices that create business and workforce outcomes and show a maturity model of what practices differentiate value and meaning in the future of work. 

Learning Objectives: 

  • Learn what challenges and opportunities will shape the future of work. 
  • See why traditional concepts of talent management and workforce planning are no longer sufficient to address these challenges. 
  • Understand what business practices drive superior business and workforce outcomes. 
  • Develop actionable strategies to assess their own maturity and advance practices. 
  • Determine which practices other organizations have successfully applied towards these challenges.
