Recruiting Future with Matt Alder - What's Next For Talent Acquisition, HR & Hiring?

Ep 643: Career Activism


Listen Later

With labor markets still undergoing unprecedented shifts and volatility, employers are increasingly strengthening their focus on retention and internal mobility. However, the shrinking life span of skills, changing attitudes to work, and the rise of AI are complicating factors here. So, how can employers ensure they support their employees' future development and drive internal mobility at a time of significant change that renders traditional career pathing irrelevant?


My guest this week is JC Townend, CEO at LHH for the UK and Ireland. JC is a strong advocate of Career Activism, giving employees the tools they need to advance their careers in the way that makes the most sense for them. This can drive retention, supercharge internal mobility, and help ensure employers have the right skills available at the right time.


In the interview, we discuss:


  • Labor market trends


  • Why HR should be building for the future for right now


  • What is Career Activism


  • The end of linear career paths


  • Giving employees the tools to advance their own careers


  • Switching disciplines and industries


  • A mindset shift


  • Gig assignments


  • Building brand and reputation


  • Hidden jobs markets


  • Skilling for retention


  • What are the benefits for employers?


  • The impact of AI on jobs and careers


  • What will work and careers look like in 3 years time?
