In this report we share the results of our study on the state of talent attraction and retention efforts in Philadelphia.
With support from the Knight Foundation, Equal Measure conducted a study on the state of talent attraction and retention efforts in Philadelphia, PA. The study results are presented in this report, which explores five primary questions:
- What is the state of talent attraction and retention efforts in Philadelphia today?
- What do we know about the demographic and experiential level of the talent pool? Who stays, who leaves, and why?
- How do talent attraction and retention efforts vary by industry sector?
- What are systemic conditions, such as community livability, affecting talent attraction and retention efforts in Philadelphia?
- What roles do professional associations and human resource networks play, and how can the Knight Foundation plug into efforts currently underway?
