The Urgency of Talent Planning 

It's not just enough to know what talent planning is and why it is important, but it's crucial to understand the urgency of it. Given the times we're living in, with growing job openings and rapid generational shifts in the workforce, talent planning has become more of a necessity than a luxury. Companies need to prioritize talent development now more than ever. 

Steve explained why talent planning is urgent. With 10.8 million job openings in the USA and a major chunk of the workforce retiring, there's a gaping hole waiting to be filled. He mentioned that winning at talent is non-negotiable for businesses wishing to dominate their industry. The current workforce dynamics and the 'great resignation' make a compelling argument for Steve's point. Companies must level up their people's game to stay ahead.
