Hunt Scanlon Media’sHow Search Firms are Adapting to Changing Economic Conditions
February 21st - 11:00am EST
Beyond the health crisis it created, COVID-19 in many ways changed the world. In business and our work lives, the pandemic sparked and accelerated shifts that had already been stirring, driving them to the forefront, from the rise of technology and remote work to a greater emphasis on work-life balance.
Concern about supply chains, meanwhile, is driving a move away from dependence on China for manufacturing and a spreading deglobalization. World events, like the war in Ukraine, have only created more uncertainty, leaving leaders at companies urgently trying to understand the ramifications and how, armed with ever-growing sheaves of data, they can best respond.
Executive search firms have been key partners in helping companies address the shift in how they hire talent, both in identifying and acting as trusted talent partners.
This expert panel led by Anthony Harling, CEO at Harlschon, will explore how search firms are adapting to these ever changing economic conditions.
Topics to be discussed include:
- How can search firms hedge against a recession
- How to plan ahead in uncertain times
- A retrospective on recent major events such as COVID and Brexit and their impact on executive search
- Are certain areas of executive search more vulnerable than others
- Predictions for 2023 and beyond
There will be an opportunity for audience members to put their questions to panel members and join the conversation.
