Talent Management - Competitive advantage or another HR buzzword?
We are going to explore and challenge our thinking and definitions of what Talent Management is and potentially what it should be to meet the future needs of business. This informal presentation will discuss the role of career management and career development from the organisations and the individual’s perspective.

Key learnings will include:

  • Why talent management is important
  • An understanding of current practice and the need for strategic talent management
  • A reflection of how well Australian organisations embrace the talent management challenge
  • The role of the employee and career development coaches in the ultimate solution

This presentation will address the specific CDAA competencies of Career Development Theory, Labour Market, Information and Resource Management and Professional Practice.
