Day One: Wednesday, June 17, 2020

3:50 PM The New Future of Work

imagine the world as it is today. In a matter of weeks, our work and lifestyles have been disrupted beyond recognition: flights grounded, people housebound, rationing of food and supplies, and rocketing unemployment. It’s no surprise that this time has been described as “a human crisis unlike any we have experienced.” While we take a moment to recognize the devastating impact of COVID-19 on human lives, we need to think about what it means for the future of talent management.


In this interactive session, you will:

  • Explore the impact this crisis will have on business owners, our employees, and the unemployed
  • Discover the skills gaps this situation has exposed
  • Discuss emergency planning with a strategic focus
  • Investigate what a post-COVID-19 marketplace will look like
  • Talk through the long-term impacts that businesses need to be prepared for
  • Take away practical tips you can implement immediately

Check out the incredible speaker line-up to see who will be joining Lisa-Anne.
