Talent Branding for Recruitment and Retention with Ingenuity Marketing Group!

Keeping great people is just as critical as recruitment, because unfortunately many AEC professionals make lateral moves throughout their careers. Culture and opportunity are vital to retaining talent and getting referrals to candidates. In this webinar, we'll talk about the primary elements of talent branding that marketing and growth professionals are often responsible for, and why sometimes your role is too narrow to support a strong recruitment and culture structure. The objective isn't to take over HR, but to apply branding techniques to the entire talent ecosystem. Learn where marketing, internal communications and growth leaders can align to create a happy and engaged team, especially through constant change. Recommended attendees are marketing leaders, project managers and firm leadership. Walk away with clear action steps to develop a stronger talent brand and sustain your team!
