With Robert Kenward & Jade Hollins from Disrupt Talent

Hiring and retaining great people is one of the biggest challenges facing agency leaders. This practical clinic opens with insight into current hiring times and the bottlenecks in the talent pipeline, looking at where agencies are getting stuck and what can help move the process forward.

From there, the session puts the real challenges facing agency leaders on the table. Submit your questions anonymously and hear Jade talk to a panel of agency leaders about the dilemmas you’re actually dealing with, from salary expectations and difficult candidates to cultural fit, retention, internal promotions, skills gaps and knowing when to walk away.

No generic recruitment advice. No easy answers. Just candid discussion, practical solutions and perspectives from people who understand the realities of building and leading agency teams.
