Preparing for Tomorrow's Talent Gap: Five Strategies to Start Today
Workplace Application: This workshop will help you develop a realistic strategy around the emerging talent gap within your organization.
The gap in organization's talent is coming if it isn't already here. Baby Boomers are retiring at the staggering rate of 6,000 a day and with them, a great wealth of knowledge and talent. What are you doing to prepare for the transfer of that knowledge and the acquisition of new talent? Only 40% of organizations have conducted strategic workforce planning assessments to determine their needs for the next five years. This workshop focuses on fundamental strategies to get the most out of your aging workforce and develop skills to prepare your new workforce. Through the use of skill scans, applied skill shortage analysis, succession planning, cross training strategies and recruitment and mentoring programs, this workshop will beef up your effort to attract and retain the best talent.
