In just
the past few years the marketplace for talent has fundamentally changed,
partly because the needs of business has changed, partly because the
availability of technology has changed how workers and business connect.
Today, business competes for talent in a free global marketplace in
which traditional definitions of job and employee no longer relate.
People looking for work have fundamentally changed.
• Today’s worker, Gen Y to Baby Boomer, no longer merely seeks or
evaluates a task to complete, or a job to do. These workers search for
an overall work experience; one that will provide a sense of
connection and fulfillment beyond the immediate work at hand and outside
the traditional definitions of opportunity and security.
• All of this change makes the brand the most essential part of an
organization’s strategy to secure talent.
• The change in the marketplace for talent, and in the consumer of the
work experience, demand that business look at brand in a new way.
