2023 Talent Conference
Attendees will use points from this session to gain clarity around the current job market & apply in their work & practices!

We have been hearing it since the leveling out of the Pandemic... 'No-one wants to work anymore'. But is that really the case? While this thought has been a concern resulting from frustrated perspectives of owners, operators, recruiters, and managers no matter the business size, there are other contributing factors creating the climate we are in now. We all should be careful not to repeat past practices with these new variables for what we are uniquely experiencing now.  In this session, we will discuss what is really happening within the market and discuss the factors that have slowly helped to create this moment in time.

Learning Objectives:

  • Outline and clarify the current market landscape.
  • Discuss the real challenges and opportunities (both past and present factors).
  • Provide and brainstorm ways to better approach these current recruiting, candidate, and labor market forces.

In-person session offerings are on a first-come, first-served basis.
