Don’t forget that if you work for a local authority and are involved in recruiting, engaging, attracting or developing (READing) talent in your organisation, you are not alone!

The talent management community of practice is an on and off line network of like minded individuals who are also involved in the recruitment, retention, motivation and development of the local government workforce. The community provides you with a forum to discuss issues of concern or interest with peers, access to a document library full of relevant talent management information and details of forthcoming events. You can even share your views with a regular blog - online diary - or work on documents collaboratively through the wiki.
