Having the right talent will help start-ups and SME's flourish and grow, while getting it wrong costs money, time and affects staff morale. However, SMEs face a number of challenges. They lack resources and a dedicated HR department, leaving these responsibilities to busy owners or senior managers.
During this breakfast seminar, our expert panel will discuss topics that are crucial for managing your employees:
How to attract the right talent for your business. Visa, contracts and employment law in Hong Kong. How to motivate and thereby retain your employees, e.g. by using an employee stock ownership plan.
