In our Dynamic Organization research we found that high performing companies focus heavily on internal hiring, talent intelligence tools to find hidden talent, and continuous internal development to fill skills gaps

I found this to be a very thought-provoking article. I think everyone who has ever been in any talent acquisition role has felt like an afterthought in an organization. For too long TA teams are been viewed as cost center that needs to make cuts yet still pull a rabbit out of a hat and find that elusive "right fit". We have mostly been the "order takers" whose job it is to find the bodies, fill the open positions, and that's about it. Instead, while 58% of companies feel that skills shortages are significantly impacting their businesses, TA teams (and more broadly, the entire HR function) need to be viewed as strategic partners to the business and should have a seat at the table when major decisions are made. We can quickly recognize talent - both internally and externally - and align that talent to not only meet today's needs but tomorrow's needs as well. Don't neglect your TA teams! #talentmarket #talentacquisition #tocgrp

Let’s face it: recruiting as a business function has to change. Once considered the “staffing department,” where companies posted jobs and scanned resumes, talent acquisition has become a highly strategic operation. What skills do we need? How do we find people who will fit our culture? What internal candidates should fill our key positions? Who are the right leaders for us to hire? In this new era of talent and skills shortages, organizations cannot run recruiting in this tactical way. #shellihermansearch #talentmanagement #executivesearch #warfortalent

Are we giving hiring/ recruiting the right attention it deserves? Many organisations often view hiring as simply ‘filling the role’, neglecting the importance of the outcomes. The urgency to fill the role compromises the need for a quality hire. Similar to a supply chain, the quality of the workforce depends on who flows through the channel. Hiring individuals with the right technical and soft skills, motivations and values that aligns with the organisation and role significantly impacts workforce quality. Effective hiring shortens development time and costs, contributing to higher work productivity in a faster rate at reduced costs. Unfortunately biases and noises permeate in the hiring system, leaving many organisation unclear where things went wrong. An organisation’s ability to execute on its talent strategy hinges on its workforce. It’s a crucial equation we cannot miss. Just as any ingredient affects how the cake turns out, every aspect of hiring influences an organisation’s ability to build/rebuild its workforce. There is no short cuts. Would retitling recruiting to talent acquisition change our perspectives? 🤔 A systematic view and approach is much needed to move the needle. #talentacquisition #talentstrategy #ccpn

Talent acquisition isn’t just about filling open positions; it’s about strategically building the future of an organization. Every hire impacts the company’s culture, innovation, and long-term success. 🤝 People-Centric Approach: Talent acquisition focuses on identifying individuals who not only have the right skills but also align with the company’s values and vision. This ensures that new hires are not just employees but ambassadors of the company's culture and goals. 💹 Organizational Growth: The right talent drives productivity, innovation, and competitive advantage. When we bring in top talent, we’re investing in the future growth and sustainability of the organization. Each new hire has the potential to inspire others, drive change, and lead initiatives that propel the company forward. 🎯 Long-Term Impact: A thoughtful talent acquisition strategy ensures that we’re not just meeting immediate needs but also building a pipeline for future leaders. This proactive approach helps in succession planning and reduces turnover, leading to a more stable and motivated workforce. Talent acquisition is a critical business process that shapes the people who drive organizational success. It’s about creating a work environment where both the company and its people can thrive together. #TalentAcquisition #PeopleFirst #OrganizationalGrowth #FutureOfWork #CultureMatters #theteamthatbuilds Sangeetha Ganesh Vana Raj Vignesh Ponnappan chithralekha N Vincy Nm Hari Prasath

To effectively address the labor and talent shortages plaguing many industries, organizations must reconsider the role of the Talent Acquisition function. Is it simply a "Fulfillment Center" or a proactive "Growth Department" responsible for expanding the organization's capabilities by acquiring not just a headcount, but the right skills and talent? https://lnkd.in/gbf25Sxr #hrtransformation #talentshortage
