As I sit here contemplating. This thought came to mind. #Employers or Employees! Who needs the most advice to close the Who needs the most advice to close the employment gap? We put a lot of emphasis on training, coaching, developing and crafting coaching programs for professionals to have a better chance to compete in this career economy.
Who is speaking to the employers at scale to help them change their methodology, antiquated thinking, viewpoint and mindset from the top down. ??
How do we bring both to the table to better understand the dynamics of the divide? I know there are many agency recruiters and talent acquisition recruiters and managers ready for a change. I’m also quite sure we have some that prefer to keep things the same old way.
Whoever said investing in multimillion dollar #ATS’s would be the silver bullet to hire better talent? While internal mobility falls to the waste side. While #DEI is being dismantled giving the companies who never wanted to adopt it in the first place a way out.
Thus, stifling their #innovation and #growth to compete in the #future #economy. How do we build that roundtable or townhall event that allows both employers and employees sides to speak freely, intelligently and respectfully to rebuild what is broken. How do we create that forum for transparent dialogue?
IDK - Maybe it’s just me, maybe I’m thinking too big or too small or my very outlook is antiquated and out of date. Anyway, I’m open to your thoughts, Input and viewpoints. I’m to here to learn like everyone else.

If you're an #employer open to having this discussion on this topic. I will create series calling it "The Offer Table."

3 个月Not sure what the answer is, but I love the question! It's possible that creating a forum is NOT the place to start. I can see myself working 1:1 with a few local employers to gain as much input as possible and creating a test case for real collaboration...and by that I mean a situation where employers share in the responsibility of working toward solutions, as opposed to expecting colleges to figure it out and provide them with fully-capable workers. It's a "we" problem requiring "we" solutions. I need to build a few success stories that I can then share with other employers as a shining example of what could happen. Maybe the actual forum part comes later. We are not lacking discussion on this point...we're lacking a clear course of action. It might not be the same for every company, but employers understand models. First, they have to own the problem. Thanks for bringing this up.
