2024 is not that far away (say, what!!!)... and we are getting geared up for next year's events. Yup, our 2024 calendar of goodness. And we are looking for speakers. Let’s get YOU on our stage! Why? Well, we are all about developing and coaching our TA community. We will offer you guidance. So much of our work needs us to present. So why not do it in a safe place? Where your peers are there to support you. Presenting to your CEO will then be... MEH! If you have a story to tell, or research to present, get in touch with Andrea STAT > andrea@talent-table.com Or see link > talent-table.com/speakers Getting dressed up in costumes is always optional... or is it? 🤔 #talentacquisition #talentmanagement #recruitmentmarketing #employerbrand

At the moment, data analytics is one of the HOTTEST topics in the TA space. Yup, that sexy beast called data is what the masses are hungry for. Did you know that Adam McKinnon, PhD. - seen here dressed as Axl Rose - talked about this very topic earlier this year at Talentpalooza? He did a deep dive into: → When should HR practitioners be using data? → What types of data should HR organisations be using? → How to establish the ROI for various HR activities? → What are future trends in the HR data and analytics space that Australian HR practitioners need to know? Check out Adam’s super awesome presentation. 🔗 in bio. And if you are interested in speaking/presenting at any of our events, get in touch. We love to get your ideas onto the big stage!

As we round out our last Talent Think Tank for 2023, there has been another ongoing - extremely important and somewhat controversial - conversation happening. And there have been some BIG convos while Matt and Simone (with Michelle) travel the countryside talking Talent Strategy… But this question has us miffed. What goes on first - the jam or the cream - on a scone? Look closely at this pic! To our dismay, Matt firmly believes the cream goes first. Have you ever heard of such a thing? What does our TA community think of this choice? Comment below ⬇️ (We love you, Matt… and promise not to hold this against you 😂). Enjoy the Think Tank today, Adelaide!! And if anyone feels brave enough, can someone show Matt how a scone is really done!! 😉 #thegreatsconedebate #sconegate #talentstrategy #talentacquisition

Thank you, Sydney! As per usual, you are an amazing crew of uber-talented TA professionals. Simone Strachan and Matt Woodard spoke to the masses about the early predictions in the talent space for 2024 as well as the steps to build a strong strategy. Simone told us... "We’ve had fabulous representation when it comes to industry, experience and role type from those who have joined us. One of the things that has surprised me the most is the richness of conversation and the absolute nuggets shared from attendees own experiences." This warms the cockles of our hearts. ❤️ Now, we finish off our 2023 series of Leaders Lunches and Talent Think Tanks in Adelaide. What a ride it's been so far, and we can't wait to see our Radelaide friends again.

Are you feeling the burn? The term "burnout" has gained significant attention in recent years, and rightly so. Our mates at Infinite Potential invite your organisation to participate in this year’s ‘The State of Burnout’ study. Headed up by Dr. John Chan, Ph.D., Managing Director, this year’s study will continue the journey to better understand and create actionable insights for organisations to create healthy, sustainable careers for their people. This year’s study will expand the research to include: ‌✅ Explore the relationship between psychosocial risks and hazards and burnout ✅ Examine the link (if any) of burnout with isolation/loneliness as it relates to work environments. ✅ Investigate the growing trend of burnout being experienced by younger workers ✅ Continue exploring the relationship between burnout and various work situations (e.g., home vs workplace, 4 vs 5 day work week, etc.) The survey will take around 6-10 minutes, and the overall results from the study will be published in February 2024. If you’re interested in further discussions or details about the study, please contact John Chan directly > john.chan@infinite-potential.com.au We believe this survey and its results are incredibly important for our #TA community at a time when the world feels a little more tricky. The survey link can be found here > https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/GWBSSocial #GetInvolved #TalentAcquisition #TalentManagement #HR #TalentStrategy

Perth… what a great couple of days we had last week talking about Inclusive Hiring! 🤩 👉🏻 Did you know that half of all managers in Australia have never hired a person with a disability? We talked about hidden workers - caregivers, veterans, immigrants and refugees, those with physical disabilities, people with mental health, developmental, neurodiversity challenges, the previously incarcerated and those from less advantaged populations. It has been information overload but all in a great and positive way. We have all learned so much, and the learning doesn’t stop here. A big thanks to @jobadder and @indeed_au who partnered with us for our Leaders Lunch. And to Testgrid and @vieple @pageuptalent @adzuna_au and @reciteme who partnered with us in Perth for our Think Tank. We loved every minute of it, and Perth, we will be back in 2024 with some new event formats and our commitment to joyful learning. 💫 #talentacquisition #talentmanagement #recruitmentmarketing #employerbrand

Season 2 of The A-Z of Talent podcast is finally here!! And boy, has there been a wee wait for this. In Episode 1, Andrea and ZiChuan Lim talk to Refapp's co-owner David Näsström and discuss the challenges of buying and "being bought". No matter what part of the economic cycle, businesses are always looking to create efficiencies and increase productivity. The challenge for many organisations lies in selecting the right tech for their situation and level of maturity. Choosing the wrong tech can be costly, time-consuming, and negatively impact credibility. LISTEN or WATCH NOW 🎧 > talent-table.com/episodes [35 minutes] Want more?

And that’s a wrap Brissie… or at least, for now! What a fab time we had talking about #InclusiveHiring at our Talent Leaders Lunch and Think Tank events last week. This has been one of the most joyful, impactful and emotional series we have done. Thank you to @adzuna_au and @pageuptalent for making our Think Tank event possible. Plus @jobadder and @indeed_au for our fab Talent Leaders Lunch. What can we say about the presentation by Anita Devereaux? She completely knocked it out of the park! Her work at Coles Group is amazing. Thank you, Anita. And we had an incredibly strong and emotional presentation from Sarah McGrory on her journey - from her brother’s challenges and successes to her own story of navigating the world as neurodivergent. As Sarah pointed out, it’s not much to ask that employers create a safe, supportive workplace where everyone can thrive and bring their whole selves. Inclusive hiring practices don't just benefit disabled people, they benefit everyone!! We couldn't agree more, Sarah. ❤️ Thank you Brisbane - we have one more to go in Perth next week.

⭐️ Equal Pay Day is today - 25 August 2023. ⭐️ In 1969, Australian women earned the right to equal pay for equal work. But something is still missing. On average, women in Australia earn less than men. Equal Pay Day marks the 56 days into the new financial year that Australian women must work to earn the same, on average, as men did last year. Recent data shows Australia’s national base-salary full-time gender pay gap is now 13%, down from 13.3% in February 2023. That means that, on average, for every $1 men earn, women earn 87 cents. But some states are doing better than others. Scroll through the carousel to see how your state performs regarding the gender pay gap. For more info, check out the @wgeagency website > wgea.gov.au/pay-and-gender/equal-pay-day-2023 And check out how Australia's national gender pay gap is calculated > wgea.gov.au/data-statistics/ABS-gender-pay-gap-data We need to do better, and employers to take action to reduce their gender pay gaps. #whatsmissingmatters #equalpayday #closethegenderpaygap

We ❤️ that you got so much from our Talent Think Tank on Inclusive Hiring, Alexia Ellmers!! This has been a truly brilliant series to run across Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane to date. A thought-provoking and extremely important topic for our #TA #HR community. Perth - we are still yet to come to you!! Don't miss out. The feedback - like this from Alexia - has been incredible. Link to register in bio. Thank you Alexia... and Jess... for attending. See you again in October, when we discuss 'Talent Strategy'!! #talentacquisition #talentmanagement #recruitmentmarketing #employerbrand #Brisbane -- Repost: I was lucky enough to attend another Talent Table workshop facilitated by the fabulous Andrea. This one was centred around inclusive hiring — a topic so important but one people need to learn more about (me included). This Talent Table was the best one yet! 💜 Although there were some alarming stats shared about how much work there is still to do in the DE&I space, Jessica Conradie and I were buzzing in the Uber on the way home, thinking about all the things we want to implement in our team. Thank you to the fabulous speakers and everyone I met yesterday! TA people are truly the most empathetic, witty and curious humans 🫶

Thank you, Sydney! Last week with our #TA #HR community was AH-MAY-ZING! A great couple of days of discussion about inclusive hiring, our challenges, our wins and what we can do differently. Even if it is something small like inclusive language in our job posts. Or making our career website readable and accessible to people with a disability. A highly engaged group who are passionate about making a difference. A big thank you to all who came! Thanks to @thefield.jobs for some of the great content from our Melbourne event that really contributed to the discussion. More fans coming your way. And a massive thanks to @pageuptalent and Referoo for giving our talent community such a great time in #Sydney. Rightio, Brissie… you’re next! Andrea and Michelle are with you from tomorrow. If you still want to attend our Think Tank on Thursday, register via 🔗 in bio. We have the fabulous Anita Devereaux presenting. #talentacquisition #inclusivehiring #talentmanagement

Thank you, Martina! We love your thoughts and your perspective from attending our Sydney 'Inclusive Hiring' Talent Think Tank. And we love that your brain is humming with potential. 🥰 For those who have been wondering what you might gain from attending, look no further than Martina's comments below. 👇🏻 And the best bit, you can still attend in Brisbane and Perth. The Details: 📆 Brisbane: 24 Aug + Perth: 7 Sept ⏰ 9am - 2pm 🎟️ $25 per person, which includes a 1-course meal with glass of beer or wine. To register > 🔗's in bio. -- Repost: As internal TA professionals its so important to get out of our little bubble and see what other companies are doing & how they are doing it. Thank you Andrea Kirby & Michelle Edwards at Talent Table for hosting such a great Talent Think Tank on Inclusive Hiring in Sydney yesterday & allowing myself & Alex Kelly the opportunity to attend. Highly recommend all my contemporaries to get involved in future events. This was a super charged event with so much engagement in the room and passion around the topic - lots of discussion around our challenges & wins, & a great forum to dissect our current practices & processes & see how we can do better. Appreciate the links to all the resources we can tap into to help us us on our way to being the most inclusive we can be. ✔ Did you know that the employment rate for people with a disability has remained unchanged for 28 years ?! I didn't. ✔ Racially diverse executive teams provide an advantage of 35% higher EBIT & 33% more long term value creation. ✔ The Australian economy would grow by $25 billion if more women were supported into work. ✔ According to Indeed 64% of Australians say they have felt unable to disclose their true selves to colleagues. Its apparent we are all on a journey, and still have a long way to go, but the good intentions to make things better are there. So many things for us to work on, our careers sites, our advertising, the application process itself, the interview to name a few. Lots of actionable insights and takeaways. So much to think about. My little brain is humming with the potential. #diversityandinclusion #inclusion #inclusivehiring

Our amazing friends at @attract.ai had an awesome chat with Andrea last week about all she has been learning and sharing during our Inclusive Hiring events - which have been rolling out nationally this month!! We are in Sydney this week, Brisbane the week after and Perth on the 7th of September for our Talent Leaders Together Lunches and Talent Think Tanks, with amazing information and tools to share with our community. Checkout our events and register, as we still have spots left > 🔗 in bio. Thank you, Grace Marshall and attract.ai, for penning this blog post > 🔗 in bio. “We need to design our processes for inclusivity. As talent functions, we should be looking at doing some human-design thinking around the recruitment process.” "88% of people with a disability don’t need any workplace accommodations, they’re actually able to work without us needing to do anything. So what is it stopping us from hiring people with a disability?" See you at our events to delve into this and more. #talentacquisition #inclusivehiring #diversityhiring @andreakirby189

Does Australia Really Have a STEM Skills Shortage? OR A Perception Problem? 🤔 This coming Tuesday afternoon, we are discussing women and STEM. Andrea had a great discussion with Dr Morley Muse and was keen to bring her viewpoint to the Talent Community. It's a quick turnaround - this Tuesday but well worth putting aside time. 👩‍🎓 Women represent only 29% of the university-qualified STEM workforce in Australia 🙋🏿‍♀️ International-born STEM women face four times higher unemployment than women born in Australia. 👩🏽‍💻 Racially diverse executive teams provided an advantage of 35% higher EBIT and 33% more long-term value creation. 🌏 56% of Australian STEM-qualified females are born outside Australia. However, most of these qualified women struggle to find work. 💰 Women make up less than a third of the Australian STEM workforce and face a gender pay gap of 22 % 📈 Australian economy would grow by $25 billion if more women were supported into work.

Many of us are facing burnout and juggling more with less. All the recent transformations in work culture have led to higher stress. Without releasing that stress through deep communication or energetic collaboration, we may have forgotten how to have fun at work and how to get more done.

Deeper connections within a team drive better business performance, and intentional play is how we can gamify our work. So join us for a webinar on how to gamify your work and get more done in good cheer! 📆 Tuesday, 25 July 2023 ⏰ 1pm (AEST) 🗣️ Caelan Huntress Register using the external link (in bio) to access the live webinar, where you will play games to beat burnout and improve collaboration in our teams.

What is your promise to the business? ✅ Start measuring the what helps you have the right conversion.

🌈 Here at Talent Table, we strive to create a community where we all belong. We know there is more work to do in creating safe and inclusive spaces where our LGBTQIA+ community belong, so we never give up. Not just today but every day. Today on May 17, we acknowledge #IDAHOBIT as a day for our communities to go rainbow and stand up again discrimination. Why? IDAHOBIT marks the day in 1990 when the @who removed homosexuality from the Classification of Diseases – only 33 years ago. But did you know, in 2023, according to research by @latrobeuni 🏳️‍🌈 2 in 3 LGBTQIA+ youth in Australia still experience abuse due to their identity. 🏳️‍🌈 68% of LGBTQIA+ employees in Australia are not out to everyone at work. 🏳️‍🌈 35% of LGBTQIA+ Australians have experienced verbal abuse in the past 12 months. This research is alarming. So we will never give up learning. We never give up trying. IDAHOBIT is coordinated by @minus18youth - Australia’s charity for LGBTQIA+ young people nationwide. 👉🏻 You can learn more about the day and discover information about identity and inclusion through the website > IDAHOBIT.org.au. Check it out, there’s lots for us all to learn. #IDAHOBIT2023

Hands-on bum for TA…” 😆 A massive thanks to Consortio @smartecruiters and @indeed_au for giving our talent community such a great time in #Sydney. And thank you to all who came!

So... THE question of the day... who is Talent Table? 🤔 A GREAT question, right? 🙌🏻 For those new to the Talent Table family, we thought we would give you a heads-up about who we are and what we do. 👉🏻 Talent Table is about creating a highly purposeful, human-centred TA community that enables the building of genuine relationships. Would you believe that we are not just about events!! 😉 But why do we do this? OK, so here is an example… 👉🏻 Via our community and a couple of phone calls with Andrea, two TA leads connect about their needs. TA #1 has an employee that was made redundant. Through a chat with TA #2 the employee was introduced to a completely different business in a growing industry. Within 24 hours, the employee who had been redundant had a new job. That's the power of a network that works. Come and join ours! Reach out to Andrea and Michelle anytime! Or make a date for a virtual coffee ☕️ > https://talent-table.com/contact/ 🔗 in bio. #talent #talentacquisition #talentmanagement #hr #recruitmentmarketing #employerbrand
