Aug 9, 2011 10:44 AM EDT

How can your business be a “winner” in the talent race? How do you engage your employees so they feel valued and begin to contribute to your company’s success?

Join us for a free webinar to learn strategies for recruiting and retaining diverse talent.

Date: Wednesday, September 28

Time: 11 a.m. – 12 p.m. CDT

Registration: http://us.manpower.com/us/en/research/webinars/manpower-webinar-series/collaboration-for-diversity.jsp

Smart business leaders understand the return on investing in a diverse workforce. Yet still today most employers—large, medium and small—struggle to make their workforce diverse AND productive. Simply recruiting from diverse talent pools without significant change to the corporate culture brings people in, but does not necessarily encourage them to stay. It takes commitment from leadership and changing mindsets to make talent want to become a meaningful part of the organizational fabric. When the economy turns around, that diverse talent is projected to be the first out the door being wooed away by “winner” companies who have spent time crafting a rich diverse culture.

Successful strategies must be mastered now as the economy recovers. In this session, you will learn about some simple collaborative solutions that fit into most business models. Recruiting and retaining diverse talent is imperative to success in today’s changing and challenging economic times.

You will learn to:

Address Concerns - How to make the business case for a diverse workforce to senior executives and hiring managers in a tough budget time.
Get Clarity - Address common myths, concerns and challenges.
Gain Contribution - Hold all levels of leadership accountable for culture change by having them contribute their talent to the strategy.
Seek Commitment - Include key players in a successful diversity strategy.
Achieve Collaboration - Employ strategic practices that lead to successful inclusion.
