People have become the number one challenge for many organisations.
Sourcing talent is the number one business constraint currently facing New Zealand organisations. Join Daniel Harmes (MInstD) and Dean Delaney (MInstD) from Platinum Recruitment who will present:
The migration of talent both within New Zealand and overseas will be analysed and why organisations need a strong employment brand to not only attract but also retain talent. And finally, what does the short, medium and long term look like for the talent market across all sectors in Aotearoa New Zealand.
Senior Directors Scott Mason (CMInstD) and Sarah Ottrey (CFInstD) will also talk about their experiences with organisations that are adding true value through developing strong employment brands to attract and retain talent.
There will be time for networking and refreshments before and after the presentation.
