Why did Green Power Conferences decide to organise this event?Companies need to be in the best position to flourish while faced with a war for talent as they compete with traditional energy companies and their competitors for the best staff. A lot of companies that are relatively young also need to develop their HR strategies in relation to their current staff, whether that is talent management, reward schemes or performance management. The most acute labor shortages are expected in the core energy workforce: production, installation, maintenance, repair, construction, transportation and service jobs. Additionally in many cases, the HR teams supporting these fast growing companies are thinly staffed and need development. An organisations' failure to attract and retain key talent will impede efforts for long term growth. It is vital for organisations inh this sector to stay ahead of the pack and be seen as an employer of choice through effective employee engagement and employer branding, leading to improved performance and business success. A company's rewards and benefits proposition is also critical because a highly competitive market requires differentiated propositions to find the balance between pleasing shareholders, regulators and employees. This two day conference, the first of its kind to focus on this critical issue, will enable industry players to share experiences and develop strategies to ensure the strongest growth of the market.In the current environment companies have a much broader responsibility to nurture their staff and create star employees and leaders. Companies need to lead and challenge staff to look at the bigger picture.
