Description: Changing global demographics and the rapid growth of both developed and emerging country economies are beginning to put a strain on today's workforce. Just look at unemployment rates in the G8 countries. Productivity growth, global talent sourcing and increasing life expectancy will mitigate the impact of these mega-trends to a degree, but not entirely, and the forces at work are unlikely to change soon. Business leaders need to start preparing their organizations today for the talent shortages of tomorrow. Key topics: * What mega-trends are affecting the workforce today and into the future? * What are the implications for business leaders as they develop their workforce strategy? * What can business leaders do today to prepare for the inevitable war for talent?
