7:30am to 8:30am Registration and Networking

8:30am to 8:40am Welcome Remarks

8:40am to 9:45am - Keynote Presentation - Big Data is Interesting, but Little Data is Critical! Tom Becker, VP Recruiting, Manpower

The role and function of the talent acquisition leader is in significant transformation. CEOs and senior leaders are increasingly looking for the talent acquisition function to be more data driven and to better articulate their ROI. There seems to be a new set of skills which talent acquisition leaders much have to be successful. These skills are change management, process management and most important data management. This session will address how “little data” has big significance in how companies can transform data into insights to drive performance. Next generation companies are using talent data to predict hiring demand and focus their talent acquisition functions on key positions which constrain the organization. They are also using performance management technology to build sophisticated models to optimize their teams and to deliver real-time data to their key stakeholders!

9:45am to 10:15am Break

Call me, maybe: Mobile recruiting is here... now what?

There's a lot of hype when it comes to mobile recruiting - but at many companies, it's still a relatively new concept. You may feel pressure to begin scrambling to put the right tools in place but where should you start? And what are the watchout's and gotcha's? Through this panel, local recruiting leaders from Marriott International, GEICO, Amtrak and MITRE will share their insights on developing a mobile strategy and implementation tips... because they have actually lived through it.

Key takeaways will include:
- Key trends driving the need to develop a mobile recruiting strategy
- Mobile recruiting vendor landscape and considerations
- Implementation insights and advice

Moderator: Jessica Lee – Director, Digital Talent Strategy, Marriott International - Panelists: Shannon Smedstad HR Social Media & Employment Brand Leader, GEICO; Gary Cluff, Corporate Recruiting Manager, MITRE

Exerting Influence: How to Build Interest, Trust and Confidence in New Candidates, Ideas and Tactics

Recruiters and recruiting leaders are constantly working to build trust--with candidates, vendors and their own leaders. This trust is necessary to make the case for joining the organization, adopting innovations in the organization or convincing a hiring manager that a unique candidate is the best fit. During this panel, four leading recruiting professionals will talk about their successes in building trust to exert influence in the organization. They'll share both internal and external examples of how to make the right case and what data, direction and emotion is needed to get that win. We often talk about the skills recruiters need to be successful but overlook the behaviors. If you want to take your recruiting organization forward and innovate with new candidates, ideas and tactics, you don't want to miss this session.

Moderator: Susan LaMotte, Founder & Principal Consultant, exaqueo - Panelists: Bill Blackford, Recruiting Manager, Merlin International; MIke Bruni, Talent Acquisition Manager, Leidos, National Security Sector; Luke Daniel Mann, Technical Recruiter, Northrop Grumman Information Systems; Lars Schmidt, NPR, Senior Director, Talent Acquisition & Innovation.
