BUILDING A SUSTAINABLE TALENT ACQUISITION FUNCTION AND STRATEGY

The session will explore how to build a talent acquisition function grounded in capacity, capability, and technology, with a focus on how AI can serve as a complement to the recruiter’s role rather than a replacement. It will also cover how to build and equip a talent acquisition team with a strong Employer Value Proposition (EVP) that engages candidates across three key dimensions—resulting in higher offer acceptance rates and reduced attrition. These insights will be illustrated through a real-world success story from work done at Rockwell Automation.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

- Learn how to build a strong and scalable talent acquisition function.

- Explore how to design a compelling, customized value proposition to support long-term talent retention.
