Palo Alto, California / December 3, 2012–BraveNewTalent, the leading social platform where organizations build talent communities around relevant topics that attract, engage & develop their next-generation workforce, will host a webinar titled Talent Community Facts and Fundamentals on Wednesday, December 5, from 1:00 p.m. 2:00 p.m. EST (10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. PST).
Online communities populate the Internet today and extend beyond the major social networks, and consumer and business-to-business brands understand the value of creating and maintaining business communities to address customer needs and to retain them long term. But true talent communities continue to be elusive for the enterprise. How do organizations engage and develop applicants and employees alike beyond broadcasting jobs and internal mobility opportunities?
The December 5, 2012, webinar will help to answer this question and address the benefits of building and maintaining true talent communities from the entire organization’s ecosystem of applicants, employees and alumni. Over time, online talent communities lead to improved acquisition, onboarding, development, retention, productivity and cultural unity.
“We have many diverse member companies at The Community Roundtable, which provides community management resources, and we’ve seen an increase in the number of HR executives requesting online community information. This is a testament to the fact that talent community building is coming of age,” said Leanne Chase, Director of Content and Communications for The Community Roundtable, one of the webinar presenters.
“There’s a confluence of recruiting trends to date – one of the traditional transactional recruiting activities, and the other of the experimental and transitional recruiting activities that include building and maintaining talent communities. The key is that it takes strategic planning as and looking ahead three to five years in the recruiting and talent engagement cycles,” said Marvin Smith, Strategic Sourcing Consultant with Lockheed Martin, also one of the webinar presenters.
Talent acquisition, human resource and learning & development leaders are encouraged to attend this informative “Talent Community Facts and Fundamentals” webinar on Wednesday, December 5, 2012, from 1:00 p.m. 2:00 p.m. EST (10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. PST) – https://cc.readytalk.com/r/71cgzoyds83q.
