BUILDING A NEW EMPLOYEE VALUE PROPOSITION
Mercer’s Point of View is that employers need to revisit their EVPs because they can no longer compete on
the contractual elements of compensation and benefits alone.
• What human resources’ initiatives have your organizations put in place or are working on to support the
  pyramid components of compensation and benefits, well-being, careers, and mission?
• What would you like to put in place?

Discuss with your group the following topics/questions and be prepared to share it with the collective group
when we reconvene
BUILDING PERMANENT FLEXIBILITY FOR A NEW EMPLOYEE VALUE PROPOSITION (EVP)
Flexible working has been featured in every one of Mercer’s Global Talent Trends studies as a part of the
EVP, but this year’s findings of “Permanent Flexibility”, warranted a trend of its own.
• Do your organization’s have flexible work arrangements? Are there formal policies? Are they part of the
  culture? Why or why not?
• How can we move beyond flexible working being CONTINGENT on individuals on life events, on people
  putting their hands up, on managers saying yes?
We’ve continued to see the rise of the free agent – in Mercer’s 2018 Global Talent Trends Study, 78% of part-
time and full-time employees said they would consider working on a contingent basis.
• Does your organization embrace contract workers? Do you see this changing in the future? Do you have
  the infrastructure to support varying work arrangements, while still developing a cohesive work
  environment?

BUILDING FOR AN UNKNOWN FUTURE AND CULTIVATING A THRIVING WORKFORCE
Mercer’s Higher Education Talent Trends Pulse Survey indicates that 59% of CHROs report that “building a
culture of diversity and inclusion” is one of the organization’s top talent management priorities in 2018
• Does your organization have mechanisms in place to hire diverse talent, build a wide range of skills and
  leverage diverse perspectives across your campus communities? Discuss.
• Does your organization’s values and behaviors promote a climate of collaboration, inclusion and
  contribution?
  – What programs and/or infrastructure have been put in place to support this strategy?
  – What would you like to implement at your organization to support diversity and inclusion efforts if
     budgets, resources, and leadership consensus were all available to you?
