Attracting and Retaining Top-Notch Talent
About this Event

Is there such a thing as a “dream job”? While most of us hope for work that fully matches our skills, strengths, and values, the truth is that few jobs are perfect. Still, with the right strategies, both workers and employers can come much closer to that ideal.

For individuals, the starting point is clarity. A current, well-defined inventory of your transferable skills, strengths and experience is the foundation of a successful placement. In this session, individual contributors will:

  • Learn how to assess and articulate professional strengths and competencies.
  • Explore how to develop a career strategy focused on the next 3–5 years.
  • Practice analyzing job postings to match their own skills with employer needs.
  • Identify the specific steps to take now to prepare for target roles.

For business owners and managers, the challenge is attracting the right people and keeping them engaged. You’ll discover how to:

  • Design job descriptions and requirements that attract well-matched candidates.
  • Recognize the role of professional competencies and transferable skills in hiring.
  • Use job design as the foundation for coaching conversations and ongoing development.
  • Support employees in creating self-directed development paths that foster retention and long-term success.

Whether you’re seeking your next opportunity or looking to strengthen your team, this program offers practical tools for building strong, sustainable career paths and workplaces.
