It's no secret that succession planning, retirement; recruitment and retention are major issues facing the public service. To meet this challenge, you have to address changing workforce demographics, knowledge transfer strategies, recruitment and retention, and you must implement, assess, and evaluate, the overall effectiveness of your succession plan. You are currently facing one of the tightest labor markets in Canada's history where recruiting -- and above all retaining -- high-potential employees requires proven techniques that will make your succession plan work.

At Succession Planning and Talent Development for the Public Sector you will learn how to build a succession plan that fits your strategic business plan. Hear best practices from federal and provincial organizations on how to build recruitment, retention, employee engagement, and diversity training programs that work for your organization. Get innovative strategies from departments and organizations within the public service sector and examine the challenges in overcoming the barriers to progress.

You will return to your office with a definitive understanding of what kinds of succession plan strategies work for the public service sector and in particular which will meet your agency's particular needs.

This years Succession Planning and Talent Development for the Public Sector conference is by far the most comprehensive, real-time study of an issue that grows in importance. Join our expert faculty for an interactive two days and don't forget to enroll in our two dynamic workshops that will re-energize your team's goals for sustaining a succession plan. -- register today!
