The Topic

Identifying talent is becoming more difficult.  In an effort to implement an comprehensive recruitment strategy, human resource professionals must employ methods to ensure all talent pools are tapped.  This presentation will focus on identifying alternate talent sources.  Meeting participants will gain an understanding of current workforce trends, such as the hardest to fill jobs across the globe and U.S., and their implications on business.  Information will be shared to assist in understanding the elements of a job match that include both soft skills and hard skills that will lead to building the talent pool that you need for the future.  Special emphasis will be placed on an important and abundant talent pool - persons with disabilities.

 
The Presenter

Martha Artiles, Chief Diversity Officer, brings a unique combination of human resources, engineering and community experience from her 27-year career to Manpower where she oversees global strategic diversity and workforce development. Her expertise spans many areas including diversity, organizational change, recruitment, quality management and mechanical engineering. Prior to joining Manpower, Artiles led diversity initiatives at global corporations in the manufacturing, IT and service sectors. Her accomplishments include the initiation of a minority council to educate senior executives at a Fortune 300 global corporation, the creation and development of an executive-focused mentoring program and the co-founding of a Hispanic employee networking group. Most recently, Artiles led the development and execution of Manpower’s global and North American diversity strategies. Artiles is an accomplished speaker at a national and international level, addressing diversity-related issues in human resources, Hispanic, minority, professional and women’s groups, and is often cited as an expert in the media.
