Highlights from #ATC2016 as told by Twitter

The 10^th Australasian Talent Conference (ATC) recently concluded and we saw lively discussions between delegates and speakers, online and off, on how the talent management function can prepare itself to handle the volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous (VUCA) situation that characterises today’s business economy.
Numerous data and statistics were shared, case studies examined and new technological innovations were showcased to provide a comprehensive overview of what can be done to manage VUCA. Keynote speakers such Ian Williamson, Carol Corzo and Amantha Imber also provided deep insights into their areas of expertise to help talent managers better understand how they can improve their work processes.
If you had missed out on this event, or would like to review what has been said, don’t worry as we have put together a quick summary to get you up to speed on the discussions. Here are some important questions raised, useful advice, key takeaways, and everything in between from the #ATC2016, as told by Twitter:

The thing abt online company reviews is that it is anonymous, unlike Tripadvisor where reviewers are identifiable – @MarkMansour01 #ATC2016

@simonemobrien speaking to #ATC2016 about domestic violence. Total silence in the room.

Remember the workplace is often the safest place for a victim of domestic abuse. Check out White Ribbon Accredited Workplace #ATC2016
