Learn why it is important to assess your current employee demographics and how to creatively manage your changing workforce. 

Everyone is aware that the workforce is aging, yet few organizations have taken steps to adequately prepare for this demographic shift. A key part of a diverse solution is to build a creative strategy now—to attract and retain older workers and make the most of their talents and skills. Learn about:

• The workforce analytics needed to make the business case for older workers as key to organizational and diversity success.

• Three case studies in which organizations leveraged their large, aging populations by creating new inside and outside opportunities.

• Tools and resources available from organizations, government and academia to help companies navigate this unprecedented change in the workforce.
