Creating talent innovations that leap ahead of the curve – The time for planning is over. We’re now in a future state of work. With rapidly advancing technology and talent advancing in kind, enterprises have a choice: evolve or dissolve.

For HR professionals who choose the former, it will be an evolution in strategy from talent acquisition to talent access. With independent talent and remote work, leaders can build flexibility and freedom into their work operating system. We may be witnessing a profound shift, but a few adaptations can set everyone up for success. 

With more than two decades of former experience leading global HR teams as CHRO of FLIR Systems, VP of global HR at STANLEY Security, and VP of HR at Stanley Black & Decker, Tony Buffum shares the evolution solution, where HR leaders can shift their workforce, models, operations and tech to navigate the rapidly evolving world of work.

Learning objectives / You will walk away with:

• Insight into the labor trends and macroeconomic dynamics that demonstrate the critical need to evolve from a talent acquisition to a talent access strategy 
• Clarity about talent access and how it includes both a modern and traditional approach to sourcing talent
• Examples of how enterprise companies have leveraged a talent access strategy to meet business goals both small and large
• Ideas for how HR leaders can revolutionize their immediate and long term talent strategies despite changes in budgets and an uncertain economy 

Attendees will learn what makes talent access revolutionary, its key value propositions and new ways to reframe their overall talent strategy. We’re now in a future state of work, at a point where technology and talent are rapidly advancing in ways that demand a shift away from traditional staffing strategies. With a few tweaks to the work operating system, companies can make the move from talent acquisition to talent access.
