CEEHR 2008 - 4th Central & Eastern European People Management Summit

Leadership. Talent. Performance

Getting the best out of people can be an organization's most important task. Encouraging key talent to continue to generate fresh perspectives and innovative ideas to maintain competitive advantage is critical to business success. So what do organizations need to do to ensure that they attract key people, allow talent to thrive and, most importantly, avoid losing the talented workforce to the competition?

These are the most pressing issues senior executives face, almost regardless of the industry sector their companies operate in. Challenging business imperatives, such as increasing turnover, the globalization of markets and labor forces, aggressive competition and heightened corporate oversight have intensified the need to acquire, develop, deploy, motivate and retain key talent.

This new focus on talent is underpinned by a fundamental revision of the people agenda, with slogans such as "people are our biggest asset". In a region where people with talent and ability are becoming harder to source by the day, it is the manner in which people are managed, and the values and ethics of the employer, that dictate the ability of any organization to attract, retain and develop the right people. Human Resources Directors and Senior HR Executives from throughout Central and Eastern Europe are in the frontline. It is you who is going to become increasingly accountable for bottom line profit through effective recruitment, people management, and leadership development.

Join the leading minds of the European HR Community at the 4th Annual People Management Summit, CEEHR 2008. This year's agenda has been designed to address the challenges involved in the attraction, retention, development and management of people in Central & Eastern Europe. Attendees will participate in a structured and interactive learning experience that will act as a catalyst for new ideas.
