Lab 1: Strategy and Engaging Executives

Join John Vlastelica and a group of your corporate recruiting leader peers for Cohort 20 of Recruiting Toolbox’s Recruiting Leadership Labs. In this lab, you and your peer TA leaders will learn and share best practices to help you build and deploy effective recruitment strategies, make compelling business cases, and influence executives with metrics and storytelling.

What Will You Learn?

  • How to create and communicate a recruiting strategy for a hiring ramp or Quarterly Business Review
  • How to influence executives with metrics and storytelling
  • How to build and present a quality business case for additional investments – headcount, technology, training

We usually sell out several months in advance, so registering early is a great way to ensure that you secure your spot. Participation is limited to 20 corporate recruitment managers per leadership lab (no more than two from the same company).

“It’s the best workshop I have ever taken for my own career development.”

Who Should Attend?

Corporate Recruiting Managers and Directors (only) who lead recruiters and are responsible for recruiting strategy for some or all of their organization.

Past attendees have included recruiting leaders from companies in technology, financial services, retail, consumer packaged goods, healthcare, and more, including Twitter, eBay, Nike, Facebook, Microsoft, GoDaddy, Netflix, IKEA, Starbucks, Visa, KPMG, Square, Booking.com, Nestle, Target, PepsiCo, Little Caesars, Deloitte, KLA Tencor, SAP, Amazon, and LinkedIn.

Leaders have typically led small (3-person+) to large (20-person+) corporate recruiting teams.

Sorry, no vendors or partners to corporate recruiting teams (RPO, services, contingent or third-party recruiters, consultants) allowed. You must manage corporate recruiters to attend. This is not a hands-on “how to recruit” training or “future of talent acquisition” conference.  This is 100% focused on helping current TA leaders lead, influence, and drive strategy.

Maximum 20 attendees per workshop, and no more than two recruiting leaders from the same company.
