An exclusive roundtable event for C-level executives to discuss attracting & engaging today’s frontline workforce
June 21st, 11AM PT | 2PM ET
What do you say when a frontline worker asks the question: “Why would I want to work here?”
Is your answer compelling? More compelling than other companies?
Frontline workers have more choices than ever about where to work, and it’s actually become a competitive disadvantage if you can’t attract and engage them. It sounds simple, yet so many companies fail to design L&D initiatives that focus on employee engagement and, thus, they miss out on the best candidates and significant ROI.
At this invite-only roundtable event, Rob Lauber, CEO at XLO Global and former CLO at McDonald’s, and Derek Belch, CEO at Strivr, will lead a strategic discussion on the topic of attracting and engaging frontline talent. This is an exclusive opportunity to learn from and interact with your Fortune 500 peers, as well as understand the role that Virtual Reality plays in engaging and upskilling frontline workers.
What to expect:
- A discussion-based event, where you will have the opportunity to both listen and share
- Detailed insights into Rob’s three pillars for answering the question, “Why would I want to work here?”
- Strategies for using Virtual Reality as a hiring, engagement, and training tool
