Authoria Webcast Addresses Transformation of Recruiting to Performance-Based Hiring

Recruiting Expert Lou Adler and Authoria to Demonstrate Integration of Recruiting with Performance Management, for Better Business Results

Waltham, MA – December 3, 2007 – 

Authoria, Inc., the leader in integrated talent management solutions, today announced a complimentary webcast that will show how the recruiting function is being transformed from a single-function “silo” activity to an essential component of employers’ comprehensive talent-management strategies.

Lou Adler, a leading recruiting-industry expert, will detail how improving the collaboration between recruiters and hiring managers not only enhances the ability to fill critical positions with top talent, but creates a “virtuous cycle” between recruiting and performance management that drives better business performance. To illustrate this integration, Authoria’s Peter Cohen will demonstrate highlights of the Authoria solution that won the Integrated Performance and Recruiting Shootout at the recent 10th Anniversary HR Technology Conference.

Webcast attendees will learn:

• How HR generalists can identify and communicate the attributes of top performers, and create more effective position descriptions and evaluation criteria,
• How recruiters can use this information to mine the most productive internal and external talent pools, to quickly find top potential candidates,
• How business managers can more quickly find top talent and achieve vital business goals.

Lou Adler, President, The Adler Group;
Peter Cohen, Vice President of Product Marketing, Authoria, Inc.;
Nina McIntyre, Senior Vice President of Strategic Talent Management Marketing, Authoria, Inc.
