It’s Not About Perks — The Secret to Attracting and Retaining Top Talent

Monday, August 26th from 11:15am to 12:30pm


With today’s pressure on hiring great people, the question Great Place to Work staff and consultants get asked the most is how companies can build a superior brand experience that attracts and retains the best talent.

In a follow up to last year’s CAHR18 Great Place To Work mega session, Julian Lute, Organization Culture Consultant at Great Place to Work, returns to the stage to moderate a conversation with two list winners from Fortune and Great Place to Work’s 100 Best Companies to Work for.

Suzie Elliott, CHRO of Farmer’s Insurance and Tina Jones, SVP, Global Human Resources of Cadence share their experience building powerful workplace cultures for all employees, regardless of who they are and the roles that they have.

In this session you will learn the key factors that made the biggest difference to their organizational cultures, why culture has made hiring a breeze, how they leverage their people analytics data to further programs or pivot and why people are at the heart of everything they do. With their insights, you will be able to walk away with actionable best practices to help your company earn a spot on the Fortune and Great Place to Work 100 Best Companies to Work For list.
