In the ever-growing War on Talent, there’s never been more urgency to get it right. To acquire, maintain, and optimize the best talent, leaders have no choice but to dig deep or lose. In this episode of the Transform Your Workplace podcast, Brandon Laws sits down with Mike Zani, CEO of The Predictive Index and expert on talent optimization. The two discuss the effects of COVID on the current workforce, the War on Talent, and team-building strategies that really work.
TAKEAWAYS
- Leaders must emphasize the data and analytics if they want a full understanding of what helps and hinders their teams.
- Leaders must take employee experience or engagement surveys seriously and act upon them, or their top talent will not hesitate to walk out the door.
- It is up to leaders to create transparency and vulnerability by modeling these attributes themselves.
