Happy New Year from the PILOT crew! We never have a dull Zoom meeting, and our holiday celebration a few weeks ago was no exception! A special thank you to the team at Confetti for leading us in some trivia fun! We laughed, learned new fun facts, and realized our crew's love for pie 🥧. As we say goodbye to 2024, we're grateful to each of our customers, PILOT members, champions, and crew members for a vibrant year filled with growth and innovation. We can't wait to keep moving our mission forward in 2025 so "EVERYONE can feel powerful at work!" We wish you all a powerful start to the new year! 🎆 #NewYear #2025 #TeamAppreciation #TeamCulture

Talent Management Starts in the Hiring Process Finding great talent through recruiting is a piece of the puzzle, but organizations and managers often have no plan to get the most out of new hires once they start. Traditional onboarding is rooted in administrative logistics of important things like building access, HR paperwork, IT provisioning, policy orientation, etc. But it often takes ~6 months for new talent to perform at a "meets expectations" level (often measured as time to competency or proficiency). Shortening that cycle has massive ROI not just for employers but also for the talent they hire as this accelerates the rate of learning and oxygenates the employee experience. My best advice is to map out an end-to-end process BEFORE you write a job description or sort through resumes. Recruiters and hiring managers are often hasty in just "seeing who's out there" and then bumbling along each step of the process with mission success declared upon an accepted employment offer. If you're like most professionals, you don't have a lot of time to do this kind of planning, or you struggle with building such a process. I've got you! I’ve created an 8-step guide packed with actionable strategies for attracting, assessing, and onboarding the right talent. Let me know what you find helpful! #CompanyCulture #Leadership #Onboarding

3 Questions to Help Define D, E, and I Diversity: Who's at the table? Equity: Can an individual's identity predict their outcomes? Inclusion: Is everyone empowered to contribute? To have a workplace that's diverse, we first need to be inclusive. To be inclusive, we need to proactively create opportunities that promote equity. A great way to do this is by making leadership development a core pillar of DEI - offering inclusive leadership development opportunities at all organizational levels. PILOT's Founder & CEO, Ben Brooks, had the privilege of sharing about "Putting Equity Back in DEI by Fostering Leadership" with the employees at Crédit Agricole CIB as part of their Diversity Month and the Allyship to Inspire Inclusion series. We're so grateful for the opportunity to partner with this impressive leadership team that's committed to fostering a diverse, inclusive, and equitable culture. Ben ended the keynote with this quote: Equality is leaving the door open for anyone who has the means to approach it; equity is ensuring there is a pathway to that door for those who need it. -Caroline Belden, “The Inclusive Solution” Let's all search for pathways for those who need it and together strive for a more equitable world. #LeadershipDevelopment #DEI #Equity #LeadershipMatters

We are proud to be working with Credit Agricole's Americas Investment Bank as part of their Allyship to Inspire Inclusion series! Sanne Kanapathy and Anna Victoria Pensabene have curated a great lineup of speakers, focused on what each of us can practically do to make our workplaces more vibrant and competitive. Thanks for your support and business! #leadership #equity #DEI

Every business starts small, and partnering with companies like Justworks helps us grow. Talent is critical to our business, as we help our customers develop leaders from C-Suite to Emerging Leaders, so our crew must be A-players and fully engaged in order for us to deliver. At PILOT, part of investing in our employees means offering compelling benefits - this helps us get top talent. We're grateful that Justworks helps make this possible through their easy-to-use and streamlined HR platform. As a small business that's seen rapid growth and has no plans of slowing down, it's a huge relief to know that the systems we use can grow with us and support us every step of the way. Thanks for the feature, Justworks! #Justworks #EveryBusinessStartsSmall #Leadership #LeadershipDevelopment

At PILOT Inc. we take Leadership Development very seriously 🙃 And we're thrilled to have been named a 2024 Global Top 25 Work Tech Vendor by Inspiring Workplaces and TSC | Previously The Starr Conspiracy! 🎉 In 2023, we achieved 100% customer retention during the "year of efficiency" when so many organizations were slashing Learning, Talent, and DEI budgets. Why? Simply put 👉 because PILOT works! We're easy for #HR to roll out, we give executives and managers a meaningful and straightforward part to play, we help employees realize tangible things they can do to find more success and satisfaction on their terms, and we can prove it all with metrics. For too long, organizations have defined so-called "leaders" as solely senior executives and the C-suite. Yet, everyone knows leadership is needed at all levels to drive growth and innovation and to foster great places to work. PILOT's award-winning Emerging Leader Development Program helps organizations develop leaders beyond the top 5% of the hierarchy by using our comprehensive program that includes group coaching, executive mentoring, manager development conversations, and self-reflection. This year, we rolled out the next generation of our program, allowing our customers, like Diageo, to infuse their unique organizational values and leadership principles directly into our scalable, low HR lift and measurable program. 🤝 Here are a few of our 50+ stunning crew, past and present, captured during an offsite we hosted at the Diageo N.A. headquarters, one of our long-term partners. Thanks to all of our amazing customers, crew, members, and community over the last 10 years who made this award possible! #leadershipdevelopment #awardwinning #10years
