Ep 467Ep 467: Automation & Personalization

Anyone who has seen me speak this year knows that I consider personalization the next big trend in talent acquisition. If they get their strategies right, the rapid growth in automation technologies allows employers to offer a bespoke candidate experience at scale. So which employers are doing this well, and what can we learn from them? My guest this week is Lisa Scales, Head of Talent Acquisition for the UK and Ireland at Nestle. In our wide-ranging conversation, recorded at UNLEASH World in Paris, Lisa talks us through Nestle's strategies around personalization and the results they're getting. In the interview, we discuss: The turbulent market and conflicting tensions for talent acquisition Scarcity of skills Removing repetitive transactional tasks Using conversational AI to answer previously unanswered questions The power of personalization The time, place and wishlist for automation Personalized onboarding Why automated selection can amplify systemic bias Moments that matter, interesting technologies, and the deskless workforce What does the future look like Subscribe to this podcast in Apple Podcasts A full transcription will appear here shortly.

Stop Pinkwashing Already

E

Over 8 million workers in the U.S. identify as LGBT. Spoiler alert: That's a lot! Yet, corporate America isn't very hospitable to this influential demo when it comes to work. In fact, a recent UCLA survey found 50 percent of LGBT employees are not 'out' to their supervisors, and 34 percent of LGBT have left their job due to treatment by their employers. What's the problem? Never fear, we have answers. That's why we invited Sara Grossman, founder & CEO of CODE-MKTG, and Sabrina Kent, EVP of programs and external affairs for the National LGBT Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC) to come on the pod and set us straight. Did we learn a lot? You bet we did. And you will too.

Ep 461Ep 461: Talent Acquisition Realities

I've never known a more disruptive, uncertain and confusing time in talent acquisition.

Ep 460Ep 460: Equity & Inclusion

Many employers are focusing hard on diversifying their talent pools at the moment. It has been encouraging to bring so many stories to the podcast about employers working to connect with historically marginalized groups and embracing more open approaches to hiring. However, diverse hiring is pointless without addressing equity and inclusion at a systemic level within organizations. My guests this week are Dr Tina Opie and Dr Beth Livingston, authors of the soon to be published book "Shared Sisterhood". Share Sisterhood embodies a practical methodology that gives employees a starting point with diversity, equity, and inclusion. It inspires employees to explore their personal assumptions, build connections and take collective action. In the interview, we discuss: Shared Sisterhood as a radically optimistic philosophy Power dominant and historically marginalized groups Addressing equity at a systemic level Building authentic connections with people who are different to you Where to start with DE&I Dig, Bridge and Collective Action The difference between equality and equity Metrics and accountability Ally versus Accomplise versus Co-Conspirator Listen to this podcast on Apple Podcast.
