What We’re Tracking: Talent Acquisition, Wellbeing, and Embracing AI

With our team’s daily work in helping to hire top leaders, we hear about several key trends impacting nearly every company now. One is an ongoing talent shortage that makes hiring a challenge. Compounding that, many candidates are less likely in 2024 to relocate for a new role. In our latest blog, Jim May offers tips and tools for employers to support candidate relocation — a strategy that will boost your candidate pool. We also provide a new Guide for Talent Acquisition with tips for partnering with an executive search firm: What to expect (and ask for), and how to make hiring a new leader a collaborative, efficient process that’s a win for both your executive and TA teams.

One trend our parent company Gallagher tracks closely is a growing priority on wellbeing—a recent survey finds 74% of companies have increased their commitment to this area. And top of mind with all our clients is the use of AI in HR. The first in a series of articles explores basics of AI and use cases (read the report and the article below).

Let us know how these trends are impacting your own role. Celebrating the vernal equinox that arrived March 19, we wish you a Happy Spring!
