Talent-minded organizations believe that high-performing, engaged employees are essential to business success.

A recent study conducted by Quantum Workplace and Harvard Business Review Analytic Services found that 81% of business leaders strongly agree that highly engaged employees perform better and are more productive.

Because of this belief, businesses have been investing in employee engagement programs and modernizing their performance management processes to maximize the potential of their individuals and teams.

Yet many still struggle to quantify the ROI of talent initiatives on the business. Why is that?

Engagement and performance strategies are often prioritized in silos, disconnected from one another. The same study found that while two-thirds of survey takers have revamped their approach to performance management in the last two years, only 37% say that employee engagement is a significant area of focus for their own organization today.

Done in a vacuum, engagement adds little value to your bottom line—and productivity without engagement doesn’t drive high performance. Tethered together, engagement and performance create meaningful, powerful, and measurable employee success.

A truly effective employee success strategy forms synergy between employee engagement and performance and bolsters the results of your business.

“Engagement equals discretionary effort, which equals higher business outcomes for the same amount of dollars. It is ROI at its finest—and the best possible return on investment for your human capital.” — Heather Whiteman, former head of people strategy at GE Digital.

No Company Wants To Layoff Its Employees

The Great Recession of 2008 taught many organizations that letting go of people has downstream consequences to employer brand, employee morale and productivity, innovation and the ability to be agile and competitive once the economy recovers.

Yet, with the magnitude and length of the current pandemic-induced recession unknown, many organizations may feel they have no choice but to lay off a percentage of their workforce.

Rapid redeployment is gaining attention as companies look for opportunities to transfer current employees to internal roles, projects and temporary assignments within a matter of days or weeks.

In this webinar Jeanne Schad (LinkedIn profile) Talent Solutions & Strategy Practice Lead RiseSmart,will explore the value of rapid redeployment as an important option for employers to consider as part of their workforce toolkit.

The workplace is more demanding, more complex, more collaborative, and more diverse than it has ever been before in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. And as a talent acquisition professional you know that in order to help your organization succeed, matching the right people to the right job is more critical than ever.

But today, almost half of business executives say finding the talent they need to support long-term business strategy is a top challenge. Finding candidates who will excel in this changing environment means finding people with the right balance of hard skills and soft skills.

Depending on the job you’re hiring for, hard skills can be critically important. But across many business areas, executives are saying what they really need are candidates with strong soft skills. In fact, according to CareerBuilder, 77% of employers believe that soft skills are just as important as hard skills. And almost 20% said they are more important than hard skills.

However, assessing a candidate’s soft skills, those behavioral attributes that determine how a person interacts with other people, challenges, setbacks and opportunities, can be difficult to quantify and aren’t easily taught – especially in a changing and remote hiring environment.

Join Susan Collins (LinkedIn profile) Director of Talent Acquisition & Employer Branding at Talbots & learn how you can create a hiring strategy that identifies and rewards the right soft skills for the right job.

In addition, you’ll discover: 

•  The difference between hard skills and soft skills and why soft skills matter
•  Some of the soft skills to consider when hiring candidates for a remote-based working environment
• Ways to leverage soft skills for organizational and job fit, and
• Interviewing strategies and how online reference checking can help you find the best candidates for every role

Gain valuable tips and uncover strategies on ways to include soft skills as a part of your organizational culture and make finding top talent a cinch!

In the quest to secure your ideal candidate, the importance of a positive employer brand and company culture has never been more important. According to a Randstad US survey, nearly 9 out of 10 job seekers say they won’t apply at an organization with a negative reputation.

While there are many tactics to consider, it’s important to understand that your hiring process plays a role in how your company is perceived – including your approach to background checks.

In this live webcast event, Clare Horvik (LinkedIn profile) Sr. Contributor & Director of Marketing Verified Credentials, will discuss 9 strategies to align your background screening process with your company culture and brand.

Clare will explore where background checks intersect with various touchpoints of the job seeker-candidate-employee progression, including public reputation for job seekers and character and values perceived by employees.

At the end, Clare will connect screening touchpoints to the candidate and employee experience.

What influence does your background screening program really have on how your organization is viewed?

Understanding where you have opportunities to match screening to your corporate objectives is a simple way to reinforce who you are to your candidate and employees.

Here’s What You’ll Learn:

1. What screening tactics may help identify a good cultural fit
2. How you might strategically set up your program to make it appear your own
3. Key benchmarks to measure the effectiveness of your culture and brand

Walk away with a comparison chart to pinpoint strategies from the candidate, employer, and vendor perspective for better synergy with your culture and brand.

Join Clare to discover how background screening can leave a lasting impression and what you can do to make sure candidate’s perception of your brand during the screening process is aligned with your corporate values and brand.
