ERA (Members  only)Roundtable event - The effects of COVID-19 on Executive Research

The event is for ERA Members onlyCOVID-19 has swiftly made its impact on our health, the way we live, interact and how we work. After several weeks of lockdown and remote working, how has it impacted you, our ERA Members? It may have caused significant challenge for the sector, but has it also created new opportunities and new ways of working? As an industry how can we adapt and support businesses, as well as each other moving forward?This interactive roundtable event will give you the opportunity to engage with other Executive Research and Talent Acquisition members to understand how the Coronavirus has impacted others in the sector, as well as hear how talent companies and independents are adapting to the new world. The session for ERA Members and led by the ERA Committee, will pose the following topic headings and will give members the opportunity to share, discuss and listen to how the sector is evolving to this new environment. This sense check will also help to assist the ERA in understanding the challenges and opportunities our members are facing and to help shape new training and support mechanisms for our members.To help people prepare for the session the topic headings will include:•	What have been the main impacts of COVID-19 to your business?•	What have been the main challenges you have faced and how are you overcoming these issues? (I.e. identifying and engaging with candidates, client management, business development, remote working, technology, managing teams, engaging with colleagues, juggling work and childcare etc.)•	What have been the main opportunities? What innovative methods have members being adapting to assist in engaging and identifying talent?•	How have you adapted your technology? I.e. for interviews, meetings and engaging with candidates and clients? What have been the main technology challenges? What’s been working well for you?•	What training and support needs have you identified over the last few weeks that could be supported by the ERA?We would love for those that join to actively participate in the discussion.
