Talent Agenda Series Core is an owner-led, agenda-setting programme for senior human capital executives.

It is designed for experienced people leaders who are:

  • operating at enterprise, sector, or institutional level

  • shaping decisions at CEO, board, or advisory level

  • interested in contributing, not observing

Talent Agenda Series Core is not a conference series.
It is a forum for serious participation, collaboration, and collective sense-making.

 
“If you are serious about understanding HR’s agenda in Africa, the Talent agenda series is the place to be.”
— Senior Manager Leadership Strategy & Executive Talent, Eskom

How the Core Series works

Talenta agenda Series Core is delivered through a small number of regional Core Editions each year.

Each Core Edition is:

  • invite-led

  • limited in size

  • senior by design

  • structured to ensure participation from everyone in the room

There are no panels to perform on and no spectators.
If you are in the room, your voice is part of the work.

 

What participation offers

Participation in Talenta agenda Series Core provides:

  • Authority and voice
    A space to test, refine, and project judgement on talent issues that matter at the highest level.

  • Senior peer participation
    Carefully curated participation ensures quality of discussion, not scale of attendance.

  • Agenda association
    Participation signals alignment with serious, agenda-level thinking on talent and workforce issues.

  • Privileged insight
    Each Core Edition contributes to a Talent Agenda insight brief, synthesised and shared first with participants.

  • Continuity
    Talenta agenda Series Core is cumulative — participation builds presence and perspective over time.

Core Editions

Core Editions are regional expressions of Talenta agenda Series Core.

They reflect:

  • local labour markets

While remaining clearly part of the wider Talenta agenda Series Core platform, and building a community of the leading voices in African human capital.
