Competition for top talent is fiercer than ever. Faced with demographic change, rising employee expectations, and a dynamic labor market, companies must develop innovative approaches to boost their employer appeal and retain key personnel for the long term. Targeted talent development and effective retention strategies are crucial for retaining skilled professionals, safeguarding expertise, and ensuring sustainable corporate growth.

This AE Peer Group is aimed at executives and experts involved in strategic human resource management, particularly:

• CHRO
  
• HR Manager
• Talent Acquisition Manager
  
• People & Culture Leads
  

In this AE Peer Group, we address practical and future-oriented issues such as:

• Developing an Effective Talent Strategy: Identifying and Developing Key Individuals
  
• Employer Branding: Building an attractive employer brand
  
• Employee retention measures: flexible work models, benefits, and career development
  
• Diversity, Equity & Inclusion: Creating an inclusive corporate culture
  
• Use of Digital HR Tools: Optimizing Talent Processes through Technology
  
• Measuring HR Success: Metrics and Analytics for Evaluating Talent Management Strategies
  

The AE Peer Group does not follow the format of a traditional lecture or conference.

The focus is on:

• confidential exchange of experiences
• discussion of real-world challenges
• access to new perspectives and potential solutions
• building robust contacts with key decision-makers
• long-term development of a network based on trust

Participants benefit from insights into the strategies, experiences, and issues of other companies.

The AE Peer Group is designed as a long-term working group.

• Group size: 8 to 12 companies per group.
  This size facilitates in-depth discussions, personal relationships, and an exchange based on trust.
  
• Host Principle: The group follows a decentralized hosting model.
• Meetings are held at alternating locations:
  › at participating companies
  › at selected partner companies
  › at neutral, external venues
  The focus is not on a fixed event location, but rather on the exchange between participants within the specific corporate context.

• Formats:
  › In-person meetings
  › Online working sessions
  › Moderated roundtables
  › Exchange of experiences based on real-world cases 
  › Optional Community Events as part of AE Life
  Face-to-face interaction forms the foundation for trust and lasting relationships. Digital formats complement collaboration between meetings.
  
• Organization:
  › Duration: 12 months
  › Option to extend
  › Collaborative planning of topics and schedule with participants
  › Continuous development of content
