Financial Crisis Impact on Talent Strategy, by Edouard MeretteGlobal
Financial Crisis has evolved into an enconomic downturn that permetes across every nation in the world. Companies in Asia (including China) have seen even tougher challenges in terms of market and cash flow. Re-organization and down-sizing become natural reactions to survive the low time, talent management means something different at this stage! Notwithstanding, where concerns and doubts about workforce productivity are emerging, should the employers build clear talent strategy, i.e. improve the employee engagement, enhance communication, optimize compensation and benefit policy and foster high performance culture through more flexible approach? The sharing lead by Mr. Edouard Merette would explore this topic based on Aon's recent study on 160+ big multinational companies.
Developing for Success and Succession - Putting Managers in the Driver Seat of Talent Development, by Mrs Ching Ching Cheng
In 2009, managers across China will find themselves having to manage through an unprecedented economic downturn which presents both challenges and opportunities to retain key talent much needed for business continuity. Recent survey shows that multinational companies' employees in China have become markedly less satisfied with their company in the last 6 months, less engaged with their current jobs, and less certain about staying with their employer. In such difficult time, manager's ability and commitment to employees' personal and career development is key for organizations to emerge after the crisis with a stronger talent pipeline. The presentation will share AXAMM's practices in engaging managers in its talent development agenda.
