Talent Management in the Public Sector
Unlocking Ability, Opportunity and Effectiveness
Tuesday 20th January 2009 - QEII Conference Centre, London
"The lesson of public service reform is that real excellence depends upon liberating the imagination, creativity and commitment of the public service workforce." - Prime Minister Gordon Brown, "Excellence and Fairness: Achieving World Class Public Services" Making Government Work Better/Unlocking Talent - June 2008All public sector organisations are under increasingly intense pressure to improve standards of performance, service and levels of customer satisfaction while also achieving genuine and sustainable efficiencies; meeting these objectives requires strong, coherent and business-focused plans, policies and practices. What could be more effective than capitalising on your organisation's greatest asset, its people?
Yet, in today's ultra-competitive UK, European and global market, organisations need to adapt to advances in technology and tap into Generation Y by adopting innovative methods of recruitment. At the same time an increasing number of older workers are retiring, resulting in a demographic 'timebomb' which can lead to a chasm of lost knowledge and leave employers struggling to fill the supply pipeline of future leaders, managers and workers.
By establishing an efficient talent management strategy public sector employers can get the right people, with the right skills and attitudes, into the right roles at the right time.
This major national event will provide a new opportunity for representatives of employer organisations across the public sector to come together to discuss and debate, hear case studies and explore ideas on and solutions to the talent management challenge.
