Helping companies build agile, equitable and engaging workforces through use of technology. Expert advisor, keynote speaker and author of books Talent Tectonics, Commonsense Talent Management, and Hiring Success.
The first book I published was "Hiring Success: the art and science of staffing assessment and employee selection". Using evidence based practices to improve talent decisions has been a major focus throughout my career. Decades of research demonstrate the value these solutions provide by identifying often overlooked employee potential, decreasing selection bias, improving workforce performance, and avoiding the suffering caused when people are put in the wrong roles. Yet these tools are still vastly underutilized. This is why I responded affirmatively when Markellos Diorinos reached out to me and asked if I could advise Bryq in creating the next generation of talent assessment technology. To quote Hiring Success, "The objective nature of assessments allows companies to more effectively place people in jobs where they are most likely to succeed. Assessments are not tools that prevent people from getting jobs. They are tools that help companies make better hiring decisions while helping candidates achieve career success." p.s. someone recently told me they got a copy of "Hiring Success" on Amazon at a greatly reduced price. They shared that the content is still highly relevant to the staffing challenges faced by organizations today and said, "it's amazing that you were writing about all this stuff over 15 years ago!". The world changes, but many HR challenges stay the same.
