Event Overview
Talent scarcity is a growing problem that many organizations are currently facing. As the job market becomes increasingly competitive and specialised, finding and retaining employees with the right skills and expertise can be challenging. In addition, traditional recruitment methods may not always be effective in identifying and attracting individuals who possess unique or hidden talents.
This is where discovering hidden talent becomes important. Hidden talents are skills and abilities that an individual possesses but have not been fully utilised or recognised. It is also used to refer to those people who ordinarily would not be considered for a role because of established perception of what defines a talent.
By identifying and developing these hidden talents, organisations can tap into a broader pool of potential employees and unlock new levels of creativity and productivity. They will also be able to manage the impact of the great resignation.
In this webinar, you’ll learn:
- The concept of hidden talent and how it can contribute to individual and organisational success.
- Strategies for identifying hidden talents in individuals and teams.
- Practical tips and tools for implementing a hidden talent development programme in the workplace.
This webinar is essential for:
