  A SEWI-ATD Signature Event

  Designing a Future Ready Talent Development Strategy

  The rapid pace of technological and societal change is reshaping how organizations are approaching their talent development strategy. A variety of factors like the evolution of AI, a growing talent shortage, a shortage of qualified leaders, and changing expectations of customers and employees have resulted in what some are calling "The Great Transformation." That is the total reconstruction of how work will get done in the (very near) future.

  Michelle Reid-Powell of The CARA Group, Inc., will provide insight into the latest trends that reflect the changes that will be happening. Panelists will discuss how their organizations are changing the way they develop their employees to ensure they have the skills required for the next decade and beyond. They will also explain their strategies for recruiting and engaging employees while still focusing on their customers.
