TalentTalk 2019!

TalentTalk 2019 was a huge success!  The meeting room at the Lehi Adobe building was packed with HR and business professionals.  Presentations featured topics from economic development plans in the southern part of Salt Lake County to employee burnout and retention.  The food was fabulous, adding to the informal and friendly vibe.  Networking time gave attendees a chance to compare best practices and commiserate about the candidate that got away, and door prizes kept the energy high!

Big shout-out to Adobe for hosting TalentTalk!  Guests were given a tour of their amazing facility following the event, wowing everyone with their technology and design.
