Kevin Rutherford (Chief Talent Officer of the Talent Management Academy) argues that traditional hiring practices fall short in today’s dynamic environment. The global economic reset has accelerated the speed of strategic change. Traditional hiring practices leaned heavily on intuitive interviews focused around generic management competencies.

Modern times call for agile strategy shifts. Corporations that hire the old way will end up being held back by being limited to workforce-driven strategies—the strategies their people can execute. Kevin Rutherford and Dr. Tom Janz (Chief Scientist for PeopleAssessments.com) outline how to engineer a Strategy-driven Workforce. Harvard Professor Myra S. White (HR Summit 2010) agrees that web-supported recruitment mixed with new assessment technology is an entirely different hiring solution, appropriate for tackling a much larger volume of applicants while efficiently highlighting the precious few with the best chances of success.

This is especially true in the China market. Drs. Janz and Chamberlain review the fads, fashions, and fundamentals of talent assessment, empowering summit participants to separate the sizzle from the substance and dramatically boost their chances of hiring the right people for the right reasons. Participants get the chance to experience the assessments first hand, discovering and defining an evidence-based development objective.

Employees are looking for a more dynamic, flexible and engaging workplace-- one that engages their full range of knowledge and skills, helping them grow and advance along the way. Employers need to be aware of these expectations, hiring the right talent to execute breakthrough strategies in the context of an aligned corporate culture.
