Strategic workforce planning: future-proofing your business   Most businesses have mastered short-term workforce planning over the next 6-12 months, but few have taken the next step to plan further ahead…   That’s why SWP was the obvious topic for our recent #Houseofvisionaries event   The onset of AI and technology looks likely to bring the most transformational workforce change for generations. 👩💻   Those who nail SWP will thrive. 📈   Those who don’t may struggle. 📉 30+ residents from the UK community got together at the iconic BBC London venue to tackle this topic, and for some, to kick start their SWP journey.   A huge thank you 👏 to our guest speakers who shared their experiences and knowledge on SWP, and our facilitators who brought their insights to the workshop sessions. Gemma McNair, Andrés García Ayala, Adam Gibson Gergo Safar, Andy Hill, Guy Franklin.   An afternoon away from the day-to-day to think visionary, take inspiration, and push this back into businesses to make an impact. ✨

The early 2020s went a bit crazy, and the trend was to scale at all costs… For the next 5-10 years the laser focus will be on quality, not quantity. The steps our #Houseofvisionaries residents recommend when hiring for quality 👇 #𝟭 𝗖𝗮𝗽𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗻𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗵 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿 🌟 Set the direction that connects to your company's ultimate mission. #𝟮 𝗗𝗲𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗲 “𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝗵𝗶𝗿𝗲” This will be a hugely collaborative exercise across leaders of several functions. Ask: What does your company need in its people today, and forever ❓ Considering what a “bad hire” looks like will help. #𝟯 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗳𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 🧱 Residents leaned towards more qualitative metrics but thought a matrix of technical/skills efficacy and soft skills would be helpful. #𝟰 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 📊 Examine measurement framework in quarterly cycles. We’re on our quality of hire journey at Bond, testing this and reflecting on all our hires to date.
