Not all roles are created equal, but how should open positions be prioritized to ensure recruiters are working on what matters most to the business?

Without a well-defined process in place, recruiters at many organizations prioritize open positions based on which hiring manager makes the biggest fuss.

In this HCI Keynote address, Natalie Leone, Global Head of Talent Acquisition at BlackRock, explains how this leading investment management firm transformed recruiting activities to align with its most pressing talent needs.

Key Insights:

  • Prioritizing recruiters’ workloads by limiting the number of open requisitions at any time and asking business units to identify their most critical talent needs.
  • Allocating recruiting resources to business units based on incremental hiring and attrition data on a prorated basis.
  • Reducing recruiters’ req-loads to decrease stress and improve time-to-hire by 42%.

Many organisations are on a change treadmill – from continuous improvement to operating model transformation – that can stress their people, processes and technology.

How can leaders and project managers reduce the people impact of this “change treadmill” – where people can lose their bearings and ultimately impact performance?

This is where a compelling case for change comes in.

Joseph Gherardi (LinkedIn profile) discusses some thoughts and my experiences on creating and using a compelling case for change and how it can help guide people through a change.

What makes a compelling case for change and how is it created? Who is responsible for the driving it and who owns it. Who produces it? How can it be used?

Digital business demands transformation that requires significant cultural and organizational change.

Change methods of the past — “change management” — are not sufficient for success. What is needed is “change leadership.”

The ESCAPE model provides six actionable steps to move to change leadership.

Discussion Topics:

  • How change leadership is different from change management
  • Why you need the competency to adapt and deal with constant change – organizational “change fitness”
  • Why leadership behavior sets the context for organizational change

Change can be inevitable, and is often the only thing constant within organizations.

However, failed change management initiatives leave your organization at risk for lower employee engagement and higher turnover.

In fact, Quantum Workplace’s 2017 Employee Engagement Trends Report revealed that when it comes to organizational change, nearly one-third of employees are either uncertain or don’t understand why the change occurred.

When your organization faces imminent changes, how will you leverage the voice of uncertainty in your organization and lead the organization through change instead of letting the change manage you?

In this panel webinar, with  Cheri Sagona  (LinkedIn profile) VP of Culture and Communications, Safelite Group & Deb Williams,  VP of HR, GuideWell you’ll hear how two companies tackled communication issues and employee morale challenges through three different times of change.
