Yet these same organizations continue to use the same old and ineffective approaches to talent acquisition; or they are being taken advantage of by large vendors that throw around lots of terminology but fail to execute effectively on behalf of their clients.
I'm calling B.S. on both approaches!
Desperate and Scared
For years I've seen organizations that know they need to implement contemporary approaches to their talent strategy, but doing so represents such a quantum leap out of their comfort zone that they are paralyzed.
"Leaders who fail to make bold decisions are usually not leaders for very long."
The habits of yesteryear continue to strike fear into the hearts of these well intended leaders. Think about the good old days of display ads in the Sunday paper.
Now that is living in your comfort zone! Sadly, there really isn't a Sunday "want ads" section in the paper anymore.
Now Is Your Time
The opportunities available to today's talent acquisition leader are endless. The ability to position yourself as a high-performing, contemporary leader in your industry is not as hard as you think. (Which in turn helps your organization be viewed in the same positive light.)
Yes, it takes expertise, courage, and commitment. But aren't those qualities in every leader's job description anyway?
How About You
Do you work in a fear factory where moving into the contemporary age is still viewed as a risky move? If so, maybe you and I should talk. I want to help...and it sounds like maybe you could use a helping hand.
I'd love to hear from you.
No Excuses.
