The New Culture and Talent Deal
Thursday, October 10 | 9:00 – 10:15 a.m.
We sit at the intersection of a staggering number of talent crossroads. Shifting post-pandemic employer/employee power dynamics, both the potential and disruption of artificial intelligence (AI), emerging gig work trends, generational shifts, and new health and wellness needs to name just a few. As a compounding factor, a recent study (PwC, 2024) found that more than half of employees feel too much change is happening at once. How do we make sense of it and effectively adapt while delivering an employee value proposition that resonates?
This session will focus on:
- An exploration of key talent trends
- Implications, with a focus on the credit union movement
- Related strategic imperatives and sample tactics
