It's very exciting to speak with Craig Keary, CEO of Asia/Pac for Ignition Advice, on how advice can be made more accessible to more Australians. How to measure the positive impact and identify the lead indicators of impactful advice. Plus shout-outs to great contributors to the profession and a quick look at the upcoming Tokyo 2020 Olympics. I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I do!

With demand for new talent increasing and the supply decreasing, we create a perfect storm. That is what is happening across all cohorts of talent in Australia and there are several reasons why this is happening. We continue the necessary conversation of meeting future talent 'where they are' to make sure we can continue to grow the future of the profession. Let's discuss a real life example with Scott Bunny, our Partnership and Growth Lead, on how to buck this trend...

The labour market is set to get even tighter. We have seen the talent pool shrink by up to 80%. So what does that mean? And how can you buckle the trend? Flexibility is king!

Hiring university grads - be it Millennials or Gen Z - normally comes with a standard flurry of questions. 'How patient are they?' 'How long will they stay?' 'Will they be loyal?' We took it upon ourselves to ask the hard questions and address the 'Elephant in the Room' with our very own rockstar Community Manager, Melanie to tell us how they really think...

Attracting, Engaging and Retaining great talent into forward thinking firms has been Striver's mantra since we started 8 years ago so when we find great tools to help firms really support their team to be the best they can and deliver high quality results we love to chat about it.
