Business leaders have certainly faced their share of challenges over the past few years. One of the most pervasive has been broadly discussed as “talent management.” For many, the challenges are an inability to recruit the talent needed, whether low-skilled entry-level or higher-level leaders.

Carol White, president and CEO of the Brookfield Chamber, said, “Join us on Thursday, August 4th to hear what the research really says and how you can shift your strategy to be more successful in competing for talent. We’ll discuss the value of using Situational Appraisal to better define the underlying issues contributing to your specific talent management ‘problem.’ We’ll also share pieces of the talent management audit to assess and identify strategies to enhance your effectiveness in playing in the talent game.”

Joseph Weitzer, Ph.D., has a business mindset; he has focused his practice on optimizing performance. He’s demonstrated his business acumen in leadership roles building nationally recognized academic programs, reconstituted a business solutions center, and launched two thriving business ventures including a successful consulting practice.

White continued, “We’re pleased to partner with Dr. Weitzer to bring this offering to the business community. This program is for anyone in a hiring capacity – be it the business owner, HR, department manager. All can benefit.”

Presenting sponsors for the program are Ottawa University and Sharon Lynne Wilson Center for the Arts.
