IACPR: In-depth with senior
leaders. Nike, IBM, Ernst &Young, RIM, Wyndham
Worldwide
|
Greetings!
How have top companies continued to recruit the talent they need
around the world throughout the economic downturn? What are the
stumbling blocks to finding and keeping executives in far flung
locations? What are the short-term tactics and longer term
strategies to make sure an organization has the global leadership
needed to stay on top? What advantages can be realized with a
globally diverse workforce? These are some of the topics we
approached with the senior leaders we interviewed at the
International Association for Corporate and Professional
Recruitment Global conference in
Philadelphia.
Our podcasts from the IACPR Global Conference are sponsored by Riviera Advisors, a premier
global human resources consulting firm that specializes in helping
organizations develop stronger internal recruiting and staffing
capabilities.
"Here's the
thing, IACPR is truly a unique organization. It's about 50%
corporate HR and staffing leaders who are focused on senior level
executive recruiting, so those are in-house people and then the
other half or 50% of them are basically retained executive search
professionals, so that's why it's unique." Jeremy Eskenazi
Listen to Jeremy Eskenazi,
Managing Principal of Riviera Advisors, discuss this year's IACPR
Global Conference.

The
Real World Challenges of Global Recruitment at Wyndham
Worldwide
 |
| Rick
Badgley |
New in the Inside Recruiting Channel
Rick Badgley is Senior Vice President of selection, staffing
& University Relations at Wyndham Worldwide. He has global
responsibility for how the company attracts and hires external
talent, selects and promotes internal talent, and all University
Relations initiatives. He is also responsible for establishing the
direction of the company's career messaging and diversity
recruitment.
"We're really
asking and demanding for transparency. One of the things that in
developing these relationships with our search firms is we need a
select group that knows how to tell our story... which LinkedIn
doesn't do, that cultural fit, that EQ, that emotional
intelligence, all those things that can't be measured by a website.
We need a search partner and we need somebody out there kind of
measuring what that 'fit' is for the Wyndham organization." -- Rick
Badgley

Podcast
Rodney Moses, is Vice President of Global Talent
Acquisition at RIM (BlackBerry). Rod has provided talent
acquisition leadership, vision and innovation to some of the
world's largest and most visible companies for over 20 years. He is
currently responsible for re-engineering the structure of the RIM
team, bringing a new philosophy of focus on candidate care and
streamlining processes to support the rapid and recent growth of
the business.
..."We're just
constantly converging technologies and same thing has to happen
with people. You have to look at critical skills and key
capabilities and some of these personality traits around leadership
skills... Some of the new technology in our new products that we're
rolling out, you're not going to have people to have that kind of
experience, so you look for someone that has 75% of those key
capabilities whether it's engineering skills or the development
skills but they're not going to be specific into the product or
market necessarily that you're in right now because either that
talent doesn't exist, or there's a very small labor market supply
of those folks... and you have to create your own
supply."
New! You'll find a complete transcript from Rod's 29 minute podcast
interview on his feature page.

Recruiting
the Top One Percent for Nike. Lance Abisror, Executive Talent
Scout, Changes the Game

| Lance Abisror |
New! In the Inside Recruiting
Channel.
"I think one of the great 'aha' moments that I had was today
is the first day of the conference and I hear many of my peers and
folks that are in organizations that I respect, other global
multinational tier one organizations, talking about the same
challenges and difficulties that we face as an organization at
Nike; whether that's retention of great talent, whether it's
recruiting in emerging markets like Brazil, Russia, India, and
China. And sometimes we pull our hair out internally thinking how
are we going to do this or why haven't we thought of this yet? You
know what, there is no finish line. We're on a path and we keep
trying to get better, we keep trying to bring in great talent.
We're growing as an organization. All companies are facing the same
challenges. So I think that is one great takeaway is, you know
what, I talked to great folks from Pepsi, from the Hershey Company,
from American Express, and I heard them speak on panels and they
have the same challenges that we have." Lance Abisror

Talent
in a Changing World: Developing Future Leaders is the Number 1
Issue Across the World.

Minocha is Global Leader for HR Strategy
and Transformation, Human Capital Management Practice,

| Hemant Minocha |
Companies everywhere, in all industries, are wrestling with
the impact of the global economy, changing workforce demographics
and increased competition. Which critical workforce challenges are
companies facing today? How are they handling them? What can your
organization expect three years from now?
"The
challenge is how do you rapidly acquire, develop, deploy talent
when you're going both ways. The American-European
companies are entering nontraditional markets for them and the
Chinese-Indian companies are entering nontraditional markets for
them. There's a cross exchange that needs to take
place and therefore, lies the question of how best are we going to
develop and deploy talent across many different spectrums? You
don't have to be a global company to be impacted by the trend of
globalization. You could be a domestic US corporation
where your competitive position is now being dictated in part by
others who are global." Hemant Minocha.
Stay tuned... Our
exclusive Podcast interview with Hemant will air soon!
