Public Sector Human Resources 2007: Tackling Worker and Talent Shortages

Monday, February 26 and Tuesday, February 27, 2007

Fairmont Château Laurier, Ottawa

Conference Overview

Prepare your workforce strategy to deal with near and long-term skilled talent shortages.

Canada’s public sector faces a wide range of people-related challenges that impact its ability to deliver services effectively - Baby Boomer retirements, an aging workforce, global competition for talent, and a talent shortage that many experts believe will last for decades, and more. How you manage these issues could mean the difference between success and failure for your organization.

To succeed you need a robust and detailed strategic plan, and talent management processes to sustain organizational effectiveness in the years ahead. This event features a combination of expertise and research from The Conference Board and The Conference Board of Canada, as well as the insights, experiences, and best practices of governments and public agencies across Canada. Gain the knowledge you need, and a clear vision of the steps you can take to ensure the continued effectiveness of your organization.

Mary Young, Senior Research Associate with The Conference Board, and author of the groundbreaking report Strategic Workforce Planning, will discuss the Strategic Workforce Planning Research Working Group’s findings. The report’s nine case studies provide a comprehensive view of the challenges you face, and solutions to help you overcome them.
