Hire for People, Not Positions: The delicate balance of attracting the right talent at the right time to grow
The disrupted labor market will be one of humanity’s biggest challenges for the next few decades. For individual entrepreneurs, this means the traditional ways of finding and keeping great employees are not going to work. Your approach to hiring has to change.
Do you know if your hiring practices are sustainable? Do they set you up for the future?
In this webinar, Dr. Anna Stumpf will show you how the world is changing and how it impacts entrepreneurs and startups. You will learn how to strike a balance between filling an immediate role and thinking about how a person can grow within your company over a long period of time. Stumpf will also discuss the role of education, automation and skills-focused hiring in the forthcoming “4th Industrial Revolution.”
