In this highly competitive and challenging talent market, leaders are under unprecedented pressure to deliver both efficiency in their organisations and sustainable growth, whilst also meeting the wide-ranging needs of a complex, multi-generational and diverse, modern workforce. As businesses continue to shift from pandemic survival to recovery as well as focussing on sustainable growth, tensions between the expectations of employees and their employers have started to emerge. Unprecedented flexibility, necessitated by the pandemic, has led to flexible working arrangements becoming expected by employees and necessary for businesses to attract and retain talent.

Long-term flexibility, trust and transparency should be priorities for employers looking to differentiate their Employee Value Proposition in order to secure the very best talent. Balancing employees’ needs with those of the organisation is always difficult, more so than ever with four generations, Gen Z, Gen Y/Millennials, Gen X and Baby Boomers – each with their own wants and needs - in an increasingly hybrid workforce. This is even more challenging to manage within the context of the double-digit inflation and economic recession anticipated in the months ahead.

The Financial Times in partnership with BCW is pleased to host this webinar, now available on-demand, for senior executives with strategic leadership, talent management and organisational change responsibilities. The discussion focused on changing employee expectations and their impact on talent attraction and retention in an ever-increasingly challenging market.
