What does it take to ensure best practice approaches are embedded in an uncertain environment, with stretched resources?

In this webinar Alan McCoy looks at how the Public Health team approached this very question during October 2020, one of the busiest times in the COVID-19 pandemic.

This team, full of highly skilled Public Health experts (under the direction of the Director of Public Health for Torbay), managed the levels of cases and outbreaks which had never been seen before, needed a more strategic and consistent approach to gain sight of what the diverse and wide-reaching programme of projects were doing.

The projects included: vaccination, community testing and local enhanced contact tracing, alongside response and prevention activities.

In this webinar, Alan will touch on the following;

• What governance was put in place?
• How did they co-ordinate this emergent programme?
• How they worked to be able to flex with the constantly changing landscape and direction?
• What does the future look like and what things are being put in place to continue this work?

As more workers return to the office, organisations must not make the mistake of trying to recapture your prepandemic work environment.

Your workplace most likely will never look the same again, so do not let the postpandemic workforce transformation turn your office into a dinosaur.

In fact, your talent operating model is already probably out of date. You must continue to embrace a hybrid work strategy. Work-from-home is a strategic differentiator, and you need to take full advantage of it.

You must do more than make strategic choices about hybrid workers; you also need to restructure your talent operating model around them.

In this webinar Chad Walker (LinkedIn profile) Gartner Principal Advisor, & Doug Wood (LinkedIn profile) Gartner Sr Executive Partner; will help CIOs and business leaders, especially those at midsize enterprises, ensure your operating model is ready to thrive in the postpandemic talent market.

Discussion Topics:

• Retool your operating model to take advantage of the postpandemic talent market
• Know the opportunities and challenges to expect in the emerging talent market
• Discover the talent strategies that will put your organization in the best position to succeed
