The workshop leaders will share some commonly seen D&I challenges and how companies are defining and measuring inclusion. They will also share examples of the innovative tools available. This will be an interactive discussion and participants are encouraged to share their own practices.

D. Talent Portfolio Agility for the Workforce of the Future (Chinese)

The world of work is changing rapidly, from how the work is done, when and where the work gets done, who does the work, to what does the work. Beyond traditional employees, the "agile work force" is projected to account for 50% and 70% of the US work force by 2019 and 2025, respectively. It includes partners, franchisers, brand ambassadors, cultural catalysts, experts in residence, other freelancers, and "technology-driven talent" such as robotics artificial intelligence. How prepared is your company in building and utilizing the agile work force, at the organizational level, the departmental level (HR and supply chain departments will be most disrupted), and the team level? Come join this workshop to learn the latest research from CCL and best practices from its partner companies and your peers.
