About this Event

Join TA & HR leaders to explore how soft skills drive hiring quality, candidate experience, retention, and measurable business ROI.


Main Themes:



  • Defining Critical Soft Skills: Identifying the human capabilities—communication, adaptability, collaboration, leadership—that matter most in today’s workforce.
  • How Skills Are Evolving in an AI-Enabled Workplace: Exploring how the capabilities organizations once prioritized are shifting as AI and new technologies reshape work, and what that means for how talent teams identify, assess, and validate skills.
  • Return on Talent Investment: Moving beyond traditional TA metrics to understand how hiring for the right skills drives measurable outcomes like performance, retention, productivity, and long-term business value.
  • Proving ROI in Talent Acquisition: Connecting soft skills assessment to measurable TA outcomes like reduced mis-hires, faster time-to-productivity, and stronger employer brand.

Why You Should Attend:



  • Exchange ideas on the current, and future, Talent Acquisition landscape
  • Expand your peer network within the Chicago Talent Acquisition community
  • Address the current pain points in recruitment practices and gain foresight to adapt and innovate ahead of the curve.

This event is designed for Senior Talent Acquisition & HR Leaders only. Those who do not fit this job profile will cancelled from the event.
