The presentation has an overall theme of “Fixing the Shortage of Top Talent.” Most organizations are fighting a global talent shortage for skilled high performing employees. Because there are multiple causes, this presentation will cover the challenge from multiple angles.

First, in Finding and sourcing good people, we uncover new methods for sourcing and screening the modern workforce, applying LEAN theory to talent issues. Then, we look at Keeping the good ones – avoiding turnover and improving engagement. This segment will offer practical methods that include using advanced listening skills, reducing conflict through management training, and value-based hiring methods.
