The Talent Operating Model Gap: What Workforce Shifts Are Revealing in HR

The workforce assumptions that shaped traditional talent operating models no longer reflect today’s reality. Labor scarcity, rapid skills disruption, and increasing pressure to do more with fewer resources are exposing disconnects across workforce planning, talent acquisition, learning, and talent management.

In partnership with Lightcast, this webinar explores how these workforce shifts are challenging existing HR structures and what organizations must do to build a more integrated, agile, and future-ready talent operating model./
