Day 2 @ 13:00

Double your talent pool - no unicorns required

You have an untapped talent pool hiding in plain sight.

In this session, we’ll show you how to double your talent pool.  For real.

If you’re grappling with talent shortages, you’re not alone. 88% of Australian accounting firms say finding and keeping great people is their biggest challenge. Salaries are soaring, margins are squeezed, and recruitment pipelines are running dry.

You don’t need another pep talk about culture.

You need a real solution.

In this practical session, we’ll reveal what’s actually driving your talent crisis - and how to fix it. It’s not just about hiring faster or throwing money at the problem. It’s about identifying the silent systems that are draining your talent pool from within.

You’ll walk away with:

A powerful new lens on why retention is breaking down at the mid-career level

Fresh strategies to tap into a massive pool of underutilised talent already within your reach

Practical steps to stop the talent leak - and start building a firm people want to grow in

This is not another session about perks, ping pong tables or “the next gen.”

This is about fixing the root causes of your talent bottleneck, once and for all.
