I recently read an interesting report developed by the HR consulting firm Hewitt Associates. Hewitt Associates surveyed senior HR professionals at over 130 firms how they believe current developments will affect the workplace. These developments included economic and technological developments, as well as demographics and other areas.
Their findings suggest that HR professionals need to search for creative approaches to acquiring talent in order to really stay ahead of their competition. One of the findings suggested that 60% of the companies in the survey were experiencing significant difficulties in recuitment from traditional employement sources. And almost all of those surveyed stated that they believe the problems will get worse.
So it appears that one solution to this "talent acquisition" problem is to identify and develop the talents that are already within organizations.
