Can outstanding, professional people decisions help companies in the chemical industry rise to the challenges that lie ahead and add real value? What are these industry challenges and what exactly does “Talent Management” mean? At our Chemical Forum 2010, entitled “The Chemical Way in Talent Management”, Egon Zehnder International’s European Chemical Practice drew on its extensive experience in the chemical industry to structure discussions with top executives around a number of related key issues.
Topics included the industry’s attractiveness in terms of employer branding, the Asia challenge, the value of hiring outside leadership talent and diversity issues. This expertise, along with the insights offered by discussions during the forum and the keynote speeches made by the two guest speakers, Dr. John Atkin and Rolf Deusinger, are presented in this small brochure. The discussion was conducted by
Dr. Wundrack and
Dr. Flueckiger of Egon Zehnder International.
