As the market pushes organizations to rethink the role early talent should play in an evolving workforce, what becomes our responsibility as leaders?

In this session, we'll unpack one answer: Strategic Talent Advisory.

It's the version of yourself you activate to help the business think about, align around, and build a workforce strategy that fully leverages early talent.

This is the part of you that shows up when the barriers preventing early talent from reaching its fullest potential can't be removed through execution alone—but instead require your voice, your judgment, and your influence.

Join us on July 22nd at 1PM EST as we use the last bit of breathing room before fall recruiting kicks off to intentionally decide how we're going to enter another unprecedented season.

We'll spend 60 minutes bringing strategic talent advisory to life:

🧭 Determine your strategic focus. Learn how to determine which of the five organizational outcomes offers the greatest opportunity for your business right now—and make it the focus of your strategic advisory work this season.

🔎 See the advisor in action. See what showing up as a strategic talent advisor actually looks like M-F, 9 to 5 (from whatever seat you're in)—and leave with a weekly self-diagnosis that helps you answer one simple question: "Did I behave like one this week?"

🧩 Reorganize your work. Discover the four arenas where strategic talent advisory matters most—Hiring Manager Influence, Cross-Functional Leadership, Reputation Management, and Data Storytelling & Strategic Narrative Building—and learn how to reorganize your work around them throughout busy season.

🎤 Hear executive communication in practice. Experience what executive communication actually sounds like through the kinds of conversations strategic talent advisors know how to lead.

We'll also be joined by Jordan Johnson — a TA Program Manager who began her career as a consultant before pivoting into early careers—for a fireside chat and live Q&A on how she still leverages that consulting mindset to diagnose workforce challenges, challenge legacy thinking, advise the business, and improve the quality of thinking around early talent across the org.

By the end of the session, you won't have to guess what being a strategic talent advisor means anymore. You'll be able to picture exactly what it looks like in your responsibilities, conversations, and everyday behaviors.

And no matter where you sit in the profession, you'll leave knowing how to think—and act—more like one throughout this recruiting season.
