Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While 'Strategy' is a word that is usually associated with the future, its link to the past is no less central. Noted Danish philosopher Kierkegaard once observed, " life is lived forward but understood backward." His wisdom finds an echo in Henry Mintzberg' seminal piece on "Crafting Strategy', where he writes that " Like potters at the wheel, organizations must make sense of the past if they hope to manage the future. Only by coming to recognize the patterns that form in their own behavior do they get to know their capabilities and their potential. Thus crafting strategy, like managing a craft, requires a natural synthesis of the future, present, and the past." What, then, does it mean to craft 'strategy' nigh a ' game -changing strategy' ? This eBook titled "A Strategic Approach to Talent Acquisition," chronicles the interesting journey of an Organization aka ABC group, as it goes about crafting a 'Game - Changing Talent Acquisition Strategy', re-orienting its focus from a tactical, reactive process to a strategic program capable of consistently sourcing, recruiting and on-boarding the best talent. ABC' success of its TA optimization effort, in large measure, hinged around its ability to synthesize, identify, and leverage dispersed capabilities within the organization. This path to a truly game-changing TA strategy was rife with complexity and ambiguity. How can both strategy and execution be consistently superior? How can they support a culture of "one" yet enable high potentials to thrive as individuals? How can the strategy be global and local at the same time? And how can its processes endure yet be agile and constantly open to revitalization? Too many organizations end up making zero-sum decisions when faced with such challenges. ABC group didn't look at these issues as trade-offs. Rather, they saw them as inherent tensions that had to be carefully managed and reconciled: A strategic orientation to be balanced by operational excellence; a sense of collective passion and purpose to be balanced by the need of individuals to build their careers; a global perspective to be balanced by local relevance; enduring commitments to leave room for renewal and regeneration. Skillfully managing all four of these tensions together helped them navigate the shift to a high - impact talent acquisition function. Recruitment has not changed in terms of a process - a vacancy needs a suitable hire. However, the landscape, tools, technology, behaviors, expectations and generations are changing all around us and continue to accelerate how organizations approach their ability to source and acquire talent. Forward looking companies such as ABC have been seizing this opportunity to move their capabilities forward and creating true competitive advantage in talent sourcing and acquisition. They are focusing on fine-tuning the fundamentals, while devoting increased time and planning to the more strategic areas of talent acquisition, including workforce planning and strategic sourcing. Their standout recruiting results comes from Blue Ocean Recruiting - game-changing strategies that elevate recruitment from a transactional, short-term focused activity to a strategic, integrated, long-term approach that optimizes their investments in people in a way that makes the competition irrelevant.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ATTN: RECRUITERS, SOURCERS, TALENT ACQUISITION MANAGERS and HR LEADERSHIP!There is talent out there. Good talent. Talent you desperately want to hire but, guess what? They are hiding from you, do not have their resumes posted online or are rarely open to new opportunities. So, how do you reach people like that? You get them to come to you. How? Content. That's what this book is about. In this follow-up to his book, “Resume Forensics,” Jim Stroud discusses a marketing approach to sourcing passive candidates. Although boolean search string and keyword strategies are explored, this piece delves more into attracting candidates via a psychology and personalization methodology.SOME OF THE IDEAS AND STRATEGIES INCLUDED IN THIS WORK ARE: # Content is the new sourcing and that is good for recruiting. # Content is the new sourcing and that is bad for recruiting. # Some people do not want to be found by recruiters and here is the proof. # How to attract the people you want to hire while outfoxing your competition at the same time. # How to find quality content to share with your audience # Lots and lots of strategies for developing content when you don't have the time to do so # How to gauge your employment brand # How to monitor your competition's employment brand # How to make your sourcing team more efficient # How to engage passive candidates so they'll call you back # What to do with the people you do not hire RECRUITERS & SOURCERS: If you search for talent that is online, you risk bombarding the same candidates your competition is trying to recruit. However, if you can manage to lure them to you then there is less competition and you are speaking to those you most want to hire. TALENT ACQUISITION MANAGERS: If your recruiting team is solely focused on reacting to the needs of your clients, you are missing out on the “A” players trying their best to ignore you. The strategies herein make a compelling argument on why a proactive strategy is best for long-term and continued recruitment success. HR LEADERSHIP: Sourcing is not wholly separate from marketing. Ideally, it is an extension of it. Read this book and see why you should be marrying the recruitment function to your marketing team.

Organizations seeking to attain their full potential in this new talent frontier must optimize their human capital resources by the deliberate development of synergy between human resource (HR) and diversity programs. Failure to integrate and coordinate these two functions will erode organizational competitiveness, whether it is in developing new markets, products, programs, or services.As the first book to provide a concrete roadmap to integrated HR and diversity strategy, the authors identify two critical practices: talent management through the orchestration of HR and diversity programs to enhance organizational capability by unleashing, mobilizing, nurturing, and sustaining the contributions of a diverse and talented workforce; and talent sustainability through the close integration of HR and diversity to continuously develop systems, structures, processes, and a culture that heighten employee commitment, engagement, and inclusion. They further believe that there should be a commonality of practice across all types of organizations, and that each sector can learn from the others to accelerate its adaptation to today’s rapidly shifting national and global realities.Based on the most current research and on interviews with HR and diversity leaders in major organizations, this book provides the reader with concrete strategies and practical tools for implementing a successful and sustainable talent management program. It also addresses common barriers to the development of synergistic HR and diversity strategy, and how to overcome them.Given the evolutionary nature of the integration of HR and diversity, the authors present nine extensive case studies from all organizational sectors, as well as from the two leading Human Resource professional associations – the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) and the College and University Professional Association for Human Resources (CUPA-HR) – to illustrate the dynamic intersection between HR and diversity practices.
