Transforming Talent Strategy for the Future

In recent years, many companies have intensified their hiring activities, grappling with a persistent shortage of talent. However, the challenge of retention remains critical, with issues such as early turnover, declining employee engagement, and poor management practices complicating the landscape.

Despite successful recruitment, if new employees do not remain within the organization, grow, and leverage their strengths effectively, sustained corporate growth becomes unattainable. Conversely, even with retained employees, low-quality decision-making and management can hinder an organization's productivity and competitiveness.

The upcoming online seminar titled “Recruitment Yet Retention Issues: A Comprehensive Redesign of Talent Strategy for 2026”, hosted by Coaching Forward, aims to shift the narrative around recruitment and employee retention beyond isolated tactics to a holistic approach to talent management. Leading experts in the field will discuss essential points that companies need to revisit, providing practical insights to be implemented from the following day onwards.

Seminar Overview

The seminar is scheduled for July 28, 2026, from 11:00 AM to 12:45 PM (JST) and will be conducted via Zoom.

Key Points of Discussion

• - Understanding why newly recruited employees often leave prematurely.

Organizations commonly face the predicament of hiring individuals only to see them depart shortly after. This session aims to explore expectations from both the organization and candidates, facilitating a clearer alignment prior to hiring.

• - Designing optimal HR systems to prevent turnover and boost motivation.

HR systems extend beyond mere evaluation and compensation; they are fundamental to employee development and organizational effectiveness. This discussion will focus on establishing a human resource framework that minimizes turnover among young employees while enhancing engagement.

• - Transforming meetings to facilitate better decision-making and management.

Meetings frequently devolve into status updates rather than serving their strategic purpose. By redefining meeting structure, businesses can foster robust decision-making processes that connect frontline insights to management, driving organizational success.

• - Designing a workplace environment that retains talent and promotes trust.

Investing in hiring and training without cultivating a supportive labor environment is counterproductive. This segment will delve into what a conducive workplace looks like, aligning labor conditions with the organizational fabric essential for securing employee trust and engagement.

This seminar is tailored for:

• - Executives and HR leaders grappling with high turnover rates.
• - Individuals seeking actionable strategies to improve retention and engagement.
• - Managers facing challenges in workforce relations and development.
• - Companies realizing limits in solely bolstering recruitment to solve talent shortages.
• - Those looking to unify their approach to recruitment, retention, development, evaluation, and labor practices.
