How Corporate
Real Estate Can Bridge the Talent Gap
This is the
decade about talent – finding it, getting it, and keeping it.
World-wide demographic shifts and immigration patterns are changing
the familiar landscape of the workplace, creating cultural and
generational patterns that have never existed before.
Corporate real estate’s need to understand and respond
to these changes is imperative to ensure the organisation’s
competitive advantage.
Baby boomers,
Gen X, Gen Y – all of the generations are mixing in the workplace,
bringing their differing outlooks and expectations with them.
Meeting sometimes conflicting generational expectations is new
territory for corporate real estate. Forward-thinking
corporations are learning to embrace these differences, finding
ways not only to attract the newest generation of worker, but to
keep their seasoned employees comfortable in the face of rapid
change. Leading organisations are bridging the talent gap by
encouraging the generations to communicate and collaborate –
achieving higher levels of job satisfaction and ensuring the
continuity of institutional knowledge.
The CoreNet
Global 2008 Summit, Sydney, will examine the impacts of a
multi-generational workforce on corporate real estate from the
viewpoints of the enterprise, the real estate industry, and the
individual.
The Enterprise
We will explore
both the demand and supply-side perspectives and delve into the
implications of multiple generations in the workplace. We
will explore new kinds of workplaces and the growing relationships
between location, workplace, brand, and company culture.
The Real
Estate Industry
Real estate
practitioners fill important roles within corporate real estate
departments and operating units of large service provider
organisations. We will examine the changing nature of real
estate-related jobs in these organisations, where these jobs are
located in the world, where the talent is and - most importantly -
strategies for building and maintaining a pipeline of future
employees. We will also explore the competitive environment for
real estate talent - including the strong attraction of investment
and development real estate.
The
Individual
We'll also take
a hard look at how the required competencies for real
estate-related jobs are changing. Skill, culture, and generational
gaps will be examined, as well as resources and strategies for
bridging those gaps. Career planning strategies will be developed
and shared.
