Organizations today are faced with strong business disruptions and competition from new sources, emphasizing the importance of specialized talent for business innovation and sustainability.

With Minh Hua, the Chief Talent Officer at Stanley Black & Decker, we discussed how the “Davids” of today (like you!) can compete with modern-day Goliaths for top talent.

Together, we explored:

The current state of today’s talent market
Top factors impacting talent recruitment and retention
Using what you’ve got to compete for talent
Tools and strategies to win the war for talent
