Presented by: Carl Schmitt and Andrew Paul of Radford/Aon Consulting

The demand for specialized talent to meet organizational staffing and leadership needs is of rising concern to employers in a competitive environment.  Recent research through Radford/Aon Consulting demonstrates the emerging trends in an increasingly employee driven workplace.  In this program, we will consider the latest findings and what actions employers are adopting to effectively address their workforce needs:

• Hiring trends and emerging practices
• Employer tactics in sourcing and capturing a diverse talent pool
• Incentives for attracting and retaining critical employees
• How equity and ownership factors factor into the equation

Joining us for this timely discussion will be two experts in this area from Radford/Aon Consulting:
