Talent Selection and Onboarding

Talent management for any organization is a continuous process. This program will illustrate how each step of the process is equally important. Job fit has been determined by The Harvard School of Business to be more important than education, skill, and experience. A comprehensive recruiting process can eliminate the gut reactions that frequently result in a wrong hire.

In the end, it is the people that achieve the overall strategic objectives of an organization. Having the right people in the right roles and providing the right kind of environment are the keys to achieving organizational success. Participants will leave with tools and templates that will enable them to immediately put learning into practice. A personal plan of action that will identify next steps and personal development options will be created for each participant

Talent Selection and Onboarding is an elective seminar for the Certificate in Managing Human Resources.
