Episode Description
The Buzz: “It seems like the war for talent is never-ending” (Jacob Morgan). As we emerge from the current global crisis, attracting, hiring and engaging top talent is still a key concern for leading-edge companies. One tech talent acquisition company found 75% of companies in 2019 had problems finding candidates, with only 21% of workers worldwide actively seeking a job. The McKinsey Global Institute projected 38–40 million fewer workers by 2020 with college / postgraduate degrees or 13% of what employers will need. These drivers led SAP to develop “Fresh Faces”, a unique program supporting partners in the challenge of the talent gap and its impact on growth. Dietmar Kilian at PDAGroup, and Petra-Maria Heeb and Juergen Kleinsteuber at SAP will discuss the business context of this global talent acquisition theme. Join us for What’s Keeping CEOs Awake at Night: Hiring and Retaining Talent.
