Finding Talent in 2024

The executive search game is ever-evolving, and we've got the inside scoop on the trends shaping 2024. ?? From tech taking centre stage to the ongoing saga of remote work, here's the lowdown:

• Tech: It's the Year of the Machines! ????Last year, AI was the cool kid on the block, speeding up hiring processes and giving biases the boot. Now, in 2024, it's not just a potential sidekick; it's gearing up to be the main event. From spotting top candidates to crafting job descriptions, tech is the MVP. Get ready for the ride!

• Remote Work: The Saga Continues... ????Remember when we all thought remote work was a short-term fling? Well, in 2024, it's proving to be the love affair with more twists than a Netflix drama. Companies are now asking, "Is long-term remote work a perk or a pass?" The plot thickens!

• Future Leaders: Experience Who? ????Forget the years of experience—2024 is all about forward-thinking leaders with a dash of humility, transparency, and vulnerability. It's not weakness; it's a flex! These are the leaders who'll steer us through the post-pandemic maze and the Great Resignation.

• Gen Z: The High-Tech High Performers! ????Gen Z is storming the workforce by 2025, and they're the tech wizards we need. But, ah, the catch—they might need a bit of coaching on those soft skills. Execs, get ready to mentor and uplift the high-tech high performers of the future!

• Creativity: The Secret Sauce! ????Leaders, if you can showcase resourcefulness and innovation, you're the unicorns in a field of horses. Think outside the box and embrace the creative mojo—Dyslexic Thinking, anyone? It's an official skill on LinkedIn, and Richard Branson approves!

• DEIB: The Acronym Evolution! ????Diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) might be getting a makeover. It's not about ticking boxes but creating a holistic, fresh approach to a diverse, multi-cultural, and multigenerational workforce. Time to redefine what DEIB means!

• Wellbeing: Because Healthy Teams Are Happy Teams! ????Health and wellbeing are the buzzwords, and for good reason. Your workplace should support fitness, mental health, and the quest for work-life balance. Happy, healthy employees, including executives, make for a winning team!
