Summary

The buzz: "It's easy to forget that for centuries – for millennia – the 'workforce' was all of us" (Peter Diamandis). Businesses today are drawing on multiple talent sources – full-time employees, contingent workers, SOW-based consultants, freelancers, contractors, gig workers – to get work done. This new employment model reality, influenced by new technologies and changing consumer preferences, requires developing strategies to shape new talent and create a culture that reimagines, enables and motivates the total workforce of tomorrow. Are you ready? The experts speak. Nicholas Whittall, Accenture: "Part of being optimistic is keeping one's head pointed toward the sun, one's feet moving forward" (Nelson Mandela). Dr. Autumn Krauss, SAP SuccessFactors: "Who is wise? He that learns from everyone…." (Benjamin Franklin). Jim Brozny, SAP Fieldglass: "The meaning of life is just to be alive..." (Alan Watts). Join us for Total Workforce Management: The Good, The Bad and The Possible.
