Listen to this panel discussion about the challenges of hiring in the municipal sector – including the lack of urgency and preparedness for current and emerging skills shortages, shifting employment expectations and work styles among younger generations entering the workforce, as well as the increasingly competitive landscape in which municipalities must vie with the broader public sector for already scarce talent.

This session is presented by Ria Dhillon, deputy CAO at destinationone consulting; Charmaine Hammond, an internationally recognized speaker, bestselling author, and conflict‑resolution expert; and Anita Bhandari, the Chief Human Resources Officer at the City of Burnaby.
