Dubai
In a world where the contours of the workplace are being continuously redrawn, the ability to stay ahead and adapt is what sets successful organizations apart. At the heart of this evolution is the People 1st approach—an approach that recognizes the inherent value of a dynamic and engaged workforce, one that's capable of navigating rapid change.
Fragomen will be participating as a Strategic Partner on May 23 in Dubai for People 1st 2024, an essential gathering for HR, talent, reward, L&D and global mobility leaders. This event is about embracing a People 1st approach amidst a rapidly changing workplace. Industry peers and thought leaders will come together to share insights and strategies to attract, engage, develop and retain top talent.
This meeting of minds will feature keynotes, panel sessions, and interactive roundtables, all designed to provide practical expertise and guidance. The event will include the reveal of the Dubai Talent Attraction and Retention survey results and report developed by the Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism, in collaboration with Fragomen and Integra Seven.
