MB to Help CA Firms Battle Talent Shortage with Recruiting and Retention Summit
|
| Friday, October 05, 2007

It's the perfect storm ... Baby Boomers are on the verge of retirement and a new generation, with a new set of values, is set to take over the workplace. Building an effective recruiting and retention culture is the number one priority for every single CA firm in Canada.
Public accounting is a people-driven business. The looming talent shortage and forecasted employment crisis will make or break CA practices across the country.
For the first time in Canada, these issues will be tackled head-on when a panel of hand-picked experts comes together on November 22, 2007, at the Ivey ING Leadership Centre in Toronto, for the inaugural CA Firm Recruiting and Retention Summit, sponsored by CanWest Interactive Media and Working.com.
This innovative and exciting conference will address the critical recruiting and retention issues specific to the CA industry with new strategies, solutions and insider savvy from a panel of highly-respected talent management experts from across the country, including:
* Kim Peters (Keynote Speaker) – Vice President, CanWest Media Works * Eric Meerkamper – Partner, D-Code Youth Consulting Group * Tim McConnell – Managing Partner, McConnell HR Consulting * Cleve Lu – President & CEO, Era Integrated * Edyta Pacuk – President, SPB Organizational Psychology * Steve Klein – President & CEO, Marketing Breakthroughs
This conference has been developed specifically for Partners and Managers from firms of all sizes, including national, regional and local CA practices.
"We first became aware of the critical talent shortage while developing an employer branded website for Scott, Ranking & Gardiner (a mid-sized firm in Ottawa) last fall. Since then, recruiting and retention seems to be top-of-mind during every meeting we have with CA firms across Canada," says Summit Chair Steve Klein. "There is a critical shortage of CA and CA student talent across the country, and this is the first conference of its kind that targets CA firms and helps them to overcome these challenges."
