Episode 146:  Human Resources Strategies for Building Culture and Acquiring Talent

Over the last few years, trends in recruiting, hiring, and retaining talent have changed drastically. In this episode, Marie Mann, an executive partner at Gartner and former chief HR officer and C-suite advisor, is sharing her perspective on what we can expect from a hiring perspective and how to make sure we’re following best practices for retaining talent. Mann has more than 20 years of executive-level HR experience in delivering global strategies to engage employees, drive profits, and generate growth.

Some of the key takeaways include: 

  • Some of the hiring and HR trends to look out for this year are quiet quitting and quiet hiring, hybrid workforces, and investing in training managers as they’re promoted within a company.
  • Companies are really evaluating their employee value proposition. Beyond salary and benefits, what are you offering your employees in terms of engagement and upward mobility?
  • Company culture is all about how you treat each other within your company. You can have collaboration, respect, and teamwork virtually, so you can build culture virtually.
