How companies are attracting and retaining employees through compensation and cultivating a productive environment and offsetting employee expectations
How companies like Samsung Next are building models for attrition in a competitive tech landscape where the average employee tenure is 18 months
The importance of clear career growth paths and transparency in pay grades for new hires, especially millennials
The importance of strong leadership and clear company values as a factor for attracting top talent 
The importance of humanity and flexibility in keeping employees motivated, as well as understanding where your employees are in their life cycle and on their career path
How companies are adapting to new hiring strategies and what that means for employee training and integration policies
The importance of adapting to modern skillsets and values of ideal candidates from a younger generation into older and more established corporate cultures
Empathy and compassion as key leadership roles, especially when working with a workforce that spans generations and continents
The allure of working for a company for the name recognition to bolster a resume, despite knowing that nothing positive will come from the experience
Why the 360 holistic hire needs to be improved, and why it’s important for prospective employees and companies to build teams of passionate people who can work together and have each other’s back
The need to sometimes be ruthless, and acknowledge when you’ve made mistakes and take the actions necessary to excise people who are harmful to the productivity of the team
Company provided benefits (healthcare, retirement planning, student debt release, and general wellness) and the importance of keeping a finger on the pulse of your employee’s needs
How benefits can be branded more effectively to show how they can be utilized by employees
The importance of listening to employee comments to make sure that no one is feeling left out or even prejudiced against by the fine print of who receives what benefits
The importance of strong communication and employee performance reviews in avoiding resentment and frustration when someone isn’t sure why they aren’t advancing within the company
The important but easily overlooked small details in the interviewing process that can make a huge difference with a candidate’s first impressions of a company, and how to hold hiring managers accountable for bad practices and behaviors that doesn’t involve powerpoint presentations
