On the October 5, 2026 HR Huddle, Tamera Loerzel and Jennifer explore how talent leaders can use the window between fall deadlines and year-end to intentionally prepare for 2027. They discuss opportunities to express gratitude for team member efforts so far, reconnect with team members, evaluate career advisor assignments and ensure the right pairing for rising leaders, check in on key transitions happening to ensure transition is happening, including capturing valuable knowledge before key transitions, and plan for evolving talent and technology needs. Rather than waiting for the new year to determine what’s next, talent leaders can use this time to take proactive steps that position their people and firm for a strong start to 2027.
