What this session covers

Many companies are undergoing a generational change. This is the best time to build and promote talent. And for employees, it’s a great opportunity to be seen and supported. What organizational conditions and structures can a company provide to identify and develop talent? How can executives recognize talent early on and plan and support their authentic, strength-oriented development? And how can employees contribute to being seen and supported by executives? In this talk Tabitha will share her insights from a company and leadership perspective, Vanessa and Alex will add the talent perspective and Stefan will share learnings from his career path from crafting software to leading tech teams. His key challenge was to find a way to build great stuff and manage great staff at the same time.
