A whole new generation is entering the workforce at a time when work is changing for everyone. Getting the right talent is hard enough, but there are also considerable challenges in retaining talent and providing the right skills development to deal with the current speed of change in business and technology.
So, how can employers take a holistic approach to talent acquisition, talent management, and L&D that resonates with a Gen Z audience and engages the wider workforce?
My guest this week is Dilek Çilingir, Global Assurance Talent Leader at EY. EY has intensely focused on changing outdated perceptions around auditing as a career to bring new talent into the business. This is part of an overarching talent strategy that also focuses on upskilling and retention.
In the interview, we discuss:
The talent market challenges facing the audit profession
An increasingly complex work environment
Busting stereotypes and marketing auditing as an attractive career
Flexibility and Well-Being
How attitudes to work are changing
Job hopping versus role hopping
The importance of ongoing skills development
On-demand tech-driven learning
How AI is changing things
What will the future look like from a talent perspective?
