BetterWork Media Group Launches New Brand For Chief Talent Officers With Inaugural Summit

BetterWork Media Group (BMG) has unveiled its newest venture, Chief Talent Officer, alongside the announcement of an inaugural annual event, the Chief Talent Officer Summit, slated for August 12-13, 2024, in Chicago. This initiative represents a significant shift towards addressing the evolving needs of senior talent management professionals by providing a platform dedicated to the exploration of emerging technologies and innovations in talent management. The summit aims to gather over 60 director-level and above professionals from the talent, Learning & Development (L&D), and Human Resources (HR) sectors.

The Chief Talent Officer brand and its summit are designed to cater to the unique needs of chief talent officers, CHROs, chief people officers, and other high-level executives responsible for talent acquisition, onboarding, development, engagement, succession planning, and retention strategies. This initiative is not only for large enterprises but also extends its resources to SMBs, aiming to equip them with insights, best practices, and innovative strategies for attracting, developing, and retaining top talent.

Ashley St. John, Chief Content Officer and Editor-in-Chief at BetterWork Media Group, emphasized the growing strategic importance of talent management within organizations. "As organizations increasingly recognize the strategic importance of talent management, the role of chief talent officer has become more crucial than ever," St. John stated. She further highlighted the goal of the Chief Talent Officer brand and event to empower chief talent officers in their mission to strategically manage and optimize their organization's talent.

This launch signifies a pivotal evolution from BetterWork Media Group’s former Talent Management brand that has been operational for over two decades. It marks a strategic pivot towards a comprehensive focus on assisting chief talent officers in managing and optimizing the full employee lifecycle. Registration for the Chief Talent Officer Summit is set to open on March 19, 2024.
