Social Learning and Workforce Planning Business Seminar to Take Place in Auckland

Business Execution software company SuccessFactors will be holding a business management seminar in Auckland, New Zealand in order to discuss social learning, workforce planning, strategies, recruitment marketing, and the War For Talent. The seminar, titled Rapidly Transform Your Workplace, will be taking place at the SKYCITY Auckland complex on Wednesday, 7th March 2012 at 8:15am.

Today, business leaders need to understand how a workforce can be rapidly changed for the better by planning requirements; identifying where there are gaps; recruiting efficiently, and then ensuring that existing talent is retained in order to execute the business strategy.

These business leaders need to ask themselves: How do they know whether they are equipped to meet the expectations of tomorrow's employee? How do they know whether there are gaps in their skill set which could cost them in the future? Do they know the skills and types of workers required for tomorrow? How they decide whether to hire a contractor, recruit from existing staff or hire a new employee from the Facebook/Twitter generation?

The Auckland seminar will address these questions and more. In addition, attendees will have the chance to witness the latest workforce management and social learning tools, and understand how these tools can be utilised to help execute business strategy.

During the seminar, along with other leading industry workforce planning experts from SuccessFactors, Dr. Karie Willyerd, co-author of 'The 2020 Workplace: How Innovative Companies Attract, Develop, and Keep Tomorrow's Employees Today' will be sharing valuable insights into how organisations can help prepare for tomorrow's workforce, today. This includes how to win the "War for Talent" via recruitment marketing and how to make the best use of workforce data to make smarter decisions.

The seminar will address the following:

• How to create strategies today and readiness for the future
• Build a stronger decision-making culture with credible data confidence
• How to mitigate risks by identifying the skills and competencies needed to meet your growth strategy and needs of your future workforce
• How to win the "War for Talent" via recruitment marketing at a fraction of the cost of using traditional social recruiting methods
