Talking reimagining talent acquisition with Nate Hewitt of Sapia.ai on their Pink Squirrels Podcast.
We had a very spirited discussion around:
What companies are getting wrong with talent acquisition right now
How companies stand out against their talent competitors (even with little or no budget)
How to think differently about the roles they are filling to access more candidates.

In 2009 CEO and founder Kim Seeling Smith started Ignite Global after deciding that instead of being paid to put bums in seats (working as a recruiter for the 15 years prior to that) she wanted to help More
I love, love, love Korn Ferryโs research, and the Future of Work Trends 2022: A New Era of Humanity report does not disappoint. One of the best quotes from page 6 is,
Iโm curious, what has your experience been with implicit bias training?
Having spent 15 years working as a professional recruiter and 11 years teaching hiring managers how to hire more effectively and efficiently Iโve always felt that implicit bias training was a waste of time.
There is more and more research now backing up my gut feel. Here are two articles that unpack this pretty nicely.
Even worse, there is consistent evidence that bias training done the โwrong wayโ (think lukewarm diversity training) can actually have the opposite impact, inducing anger and frustration among white employees. What this all means is that, despite the widespread calls for implicit bias training, it will likely be ineffective at best; at worst, itโs a poor use of limited resources that could cause more damage and exacerbate the very issues it is trying to solve.

I had a great time speaking to Ben OโShea on The West Australianโs The West Live show about what really drives people to change jobs.
Like in all booms, companies within WA are losing great people for the allure of a high pay packet working in a FIFO environment. Can leaders do anything to stop this from happening (spoiler alert โ yes!).
Why do people look for other roles (spoiler alert โ despite what most leaders think, itโs rarely about money)?
What do you do if you lose someone that you donโt want to lose? Can you entice them back (spoiler alert โ statistically, yes, 20% of the time).

To which I, of course, reply with a resounding yes!
According to the most recent research by Gallup, 85% of the global workforce is disengaged. That stat that has not moved in well over a decade and COVID has not seemed to impact it at all.
In the US Gallup saw a historic rise in engagement scores shortly after COVID โ followed by an equally historic fall.
Yesterdayโs post โ https://lnkd.in/gHs_rUW provided a calculator to help you figure out how much you were losing in productivity for every member of your team who is disengaged.
I had a comment on that post asking, โWhy are they disengaged?โ
