ENC186 – Recruiting for future potential instead of existing qualifications with Steven Hunt

Education NewsCast

Steven Hunt is Chief Expert at SAP for Technology and Work, author, podcaster and like Thomas also an Industry and Organizational Psychologist. We discuss why hiring and developing for potential is becoming more important due to growing talent scarcity and the digital transformation of jobs, and how this impacts job design, recruiting practices and development methods. We explore the need to more closely integrate recruiting and development recognizing that who a company hires depends on how they will be developed. And look at the challenges this can create for hiring managers and HR practitioners. More as always in the EducationNewscast Podcast.
