Talent@Iowa Governance Council Proposed May Agenda Medical leave recommendation Talent acquisition system update
Governance Council Action Inform campus of Talent@Iowa initiative Share infographics Refer to key talking points: T@I advances the UI strategic plan’s emphasis on the university’s people. Implementing T@I is a collaborative effort driven by the whole HR community. T@I prioritizes strategy alongside operations—more proactive approaches to recruiting, workforce planning, etc. Increased efficiencies should save departments time and money. Changes will balance coordination and flexibility, giving departments additional autonomy. Other projects (like Working@Iowa) are closely integrated—they all inform each other.
