How to Build a Strong Tech Workforce in a Post-COVID Economy

Canada has always had a place for talent from all over the world, but post-crisis, will our approach to acquiring global talent need to change? How do we ensure Canadian businesses and workforces are set up for success as the landscape of work has evolved? Innovation and design-centric thinking are key, and for companies of any size, so is building proactive, adaptive and agile teams. On this episode of RBC Disruptors, John Stackhouse is joined by Sheetal Jaitly, Founder and CEO of TribalScale and Eman Faiz, senior product designer at TribalScale to discuss:

  • How do we approach talent acquisition in a post-COVID society?
  • What strengths does the Canadian tech sector bring as we reimagine the economy?
  • Beyond hard and soft skills, what should companies look for in prospective candidates to drive success in a changing landscape?
